[Edrof]

It's called progressive resistance training. Eventually I will build up to 45lb plates.

I'm not sure if this is a home & garden thread or a sports thread so I am posting it in GD.

Glorious

They don't do pink and fluffy 20KG plates though.

On the uphill areas I sprint up them and it's like pushing a weight sled .....

So you admit to being an uphill gardener

The self propulsion bit on my mower has been broken for ages. Yes, it's a bit harder but a workout?.... lol

It feels like you are doing a proper job with a push mower.

I'm the only one on my street with a push mower. Feel like the street pauper though when I do the front lawn.

Or get the Honda Robot lawn mower:

Then you can do something else.

This is my favourite kwerk thread! XoX

Ah man, I need to mow the lawn, I've been putting it off this weekend. Recycling, then lawn.

Kwerk, what weights would you advise for me? It's only small, my lawn, so thinking about 70kg should do it, right?

 

[gillywibble]

5 stars. Now trim your bush.

Epic 5* thread by Kwerk.

Been getting a workout this morning strimming the grass embankment, arms, back, legs are killing me now.

You could get a training partner.

If you want some serious exercise, you can come and mow my neighbours lawn. I'm not joking, this used to be short grass (picture taken at my eye level):
