Part of my Mothers’ Day present was moving some landscaping stones. Each one had to be placed in the wheelbarrel and then back down in another area. I was concerned that I may strain my back, so I took special care to bend my knees, keep my back in neutral and use my glut and leg muscles to power up. It was a fabulous workout. Sure my legs and lower back muscles felt like they had been asked to do more than they were accustomed to, but what I had failed to consider was the 140+ bicep curls that I also did. Those babies cried for 3 days. I credit Zumba for the lack of soreness in my legs that I had expected. I am now motivated to work more on my upper body!

A tight rump AND a pretty garden. That’s pretty great!
LoL. 2 for 1!
Phew! What a work out. I love those kind of work outs because it almost seems more productive because you are also doing something you love. =D
Immediate gratification!
nothing better than getting a workout while making your yard look good. it might just be me but i love working even heavy lifting outside. maybe it’s because i am stuck behind a computer all day.
I love trading fluorescent lights for sunlight.
Gotta love that Jell-O feelin!
True!
With the cooling weather, I’m looking forward to helping create the community garden don the street. We’ve got a lot of debris to clear out!
Community gardens are so cool for so many reasons. Maybe I should try that instead raiding my neighbor’s.
Unless your neighbor doesn’t mind being a community garden!
lol!!! 😀
