Sony claims watching Whiplash burns 375 calories... same as a 2.5k jog!

It’s a physically exhausting movie.

The extremely frenetic movie about a teenager learning to drum in a jazz school with a domineering teacher is one of the most talked about films of the last year.

And everyone online seems to agree that it takes it out of you:

We didn’t realise that it would substitute in for a workout at the same time as being excellent. So, swimming for 45 minutes? Cycling for a half hour? Jogging for 1.5 miles?

Apparently, you’ll have to go to Whiplash for the same experience. Go forth and watch.
