Weekend Yard Work-Out
Want a good workout? Do some yard work! Mow the lawn, weed the garden, trim some bushes. Not only are you burning tons of calories, you are out in the fresh air and sunshine. And when you're finished what do you have? A nice looking yard and the satisfaction that your workout actually accomplished something. How's that for a bonus?
Now, I don't have acreage - my yard is 42' x 210', but it involves not only mowing, but lots of trimming. Gotta love that Weed Whacker! And we've had some really good growing weather so not only the plants, but the weeds have shot up like crazy. When I was done with that, I planted a few perennials and spread some mulch.
The great thing about owning a piece of property when you're trying to get yourself in shape is that it provides LOTS of opportunity for you to do so. If you're not mowing, you're raking or shoveling - or cleaning, painting, repairing....you get the picture.
What if you AREN'T doing this as a workout? Bummer!
