For those of you who have a garden where you live, I find that gardening can be a really great workout!
All that chopping, weed pulling, digging, pushing the lawn mower and pruning and than dragging the prunings to the bin can really work up a good sweat and you get to use almost every muscle in your body.
I just had a HUGE load of mulch delivered to my house this weekend and I spent the entire weekend filling barrow load after barrow load and carting it to every corner of my garden and then raking it all level.
What's more the results give you a wonderful sense of achievement and with a nice hot shower at the end of the day I felt really relaxed and satisfied and slept like a baby at night!
