You know why people are fat
because they use power lawn mowers.
I just mowed my lawn that was about 5 days overdue for a mowing with my manual push mower. I don't think I've ever sweated so much. and my arms are going to be sore tomorrow. Whole body work out.

that's what I was using... old school manual mower with the reel

Lemme get this right...so are you saying that being self-disciplined enough to work out hard even though it sucks, and not being lazy and sitting on your fat ass on a power mower could help someone lose fat?!
That idea didn't go over well in some other threads.
that's what we have too. Thankfully our "lawn" is maybe 200 sq ft.

we have one of those reel push mowers too. Dh read how bad lawn mower exhaust was and opted for the old school way when we bought our house. Our neighbors teased us but it's good natured. As long as he mows once a week it is fine. When he dislocated his shoulder last fall I used it for the first time. Holy eff it was a workout, esp since our yard is so uneven in spots. For our last mow of the season I called the professionals and had them do it, mostly because I fear the weed whacker so I just had them do everything.
dude at the church I used to work at chopped off his fingers with the weed whacker. The pastor asked me to go look for the fingers while they took him to the hospital. Fortunately someone found them before I did. I stay as far away from those things as possible. Weed whackers AND Baptist churches

Would you like to buy my condo in Salem?
Heh. The rain is why our lawn currently looks like a little jungle. BabyLiu and I will watch H mow with the push mower from the window and giggle. We're mean like that.
The neighbors across the street have a push mower. The kid waits until it's really long to mow, and then has to take stabs at the lawn to mow it. It looks painful. I want to tell him not to wait so long to mow, but that probably wouldn't go over well.
Lol, I see someone didn't take getting the crap flamed out of them very well yesterday.
