Exercising the farmlife way

In my city life I try to exercise daily - walking, running, swimming or yoga - sometimes a combination and usually squeezed into a busy work day. 

On the farm I try to take a long walk sometime in the day, go to yoga twice a week or fit in a swim when the pool is open.

However, some days here exercise takes on a different form.  Manual labour!

Today was "raking up the grass" cardio.


Bending forward and raking back



 60 minutes later there are about 30 piles of grass ready to be moved to the compost pile.

I can feel tingling in my shoulder muscles already.

A great farmlife workout.
