Game of Pick up Sticks

Spring is in full bloom, the flowers are out and standing guard against the impending frost the meteorologist is predicting for tonight, and on the minds of most - shaping up for beach season. Most magazines will be publishing the latest and greatest workouts or the easiest way to cheat your way to a better body but in the last few days I have discovered the greatest glut workout while tending to the spring cleaning chores!

Picking up sticks in the yard is a great way to firm up that bottom. That half squat/half bend over is sure to get you sweating and make that bum a little sore in no time! The end result? A huge stack of branches ready for burning, a clean yard, and a great butt/thigh/quad workout. So next time you go to pick up the phone to call the landscaping crew, put the phone down and step outside. There is a great workout just waiting for you in yard and you can save a few bucks too by doing your own mowing, planting, raking, and the child's game of pick up sticks!
