So yesterday I had to do some exercise, mainly moving furniture and flights of stairs. I had to carry two heavy wooden end tables up two flights up stairs. Then I had to go down into the basement 3 times for laundry, which was also probably another 6 flights of stairs when all said and done.
I like the type of exercise that also has a progressive outcome. Exercise like scrubbing the kitchen floor, chopping firewood, carrying up boxes from the basement. It’s a lot easier for me to do those things than it is to walk on a treadmill for half an hour or something.
Maybe I will start looking at projects around the house to give me variety in exercise. I know I need to paint two ceilings, rip up carpet in one room, finish sanding the floor (by hand) in my bedroom, and paint the office at some point.
I also want to reorganize the basement, help dad with the garden, and get a machete and help clear out some of the brush in the woods out back.
Are those suitable exercise efforts?
