Exercise with Power Equipment — Readers’ Workouts
Welcome to Readers’ Workouts, the weekly event where book lovers share workout stories, goals, successes, and challenges.
My most unusual workout last week was running the power cultivator through my vegetable garden. In my marriage, it’s almost embarrassing how much the chores are split along traditional gender lines. Rick is in charge of power tools. But, sometimes, his schedule doesn’t correspond well with the garden’s schedule.
So, I ran the cultivator this year. After some instruction and practice, I was able to let the engine handle forward movement while I used my back and legs, more than my arms, to keep the whole thing under control. I went over the garden three times, raking it out in between. A good workout!
