Working Out Like A Herdbull
« on: August 05, 2009, 10:31:00 PM »
Like many people around here, I devoured Mike Mitten's book, One With the Wilderness.  Mike has lived experiences many only dream about, and his dedication to his passion is unbelievable.

In one of the chapters of Mike's book he details some of the things he does to get in shape physically for the demanding hunts he loves.  One of his workouts involves wearing his fully loaded backpack while mowing his lawn.  What a great idea!  I dislike working out just about as much as mowing lawn, so I thought combining the two would take care of two undesirable tasks at once.  Brilliant!

I've just started my lawnmower workouts, and am already starting to feel the benefits!  It's amazing!

I can already tell this is going to pay big dividends in September.  Does anyone know if a lawnmower would be considered an ATV?    ;)

That was meant for compound bow hunting.
