Fall is here – and soon your yard will be littered with leaves that need to be cleared. But look at it as an opportunity, not a chore! While you’re raking, bending, lifting and hauling, you’re also squeezing in a workout (and benefitting from fresh air to boot!).

Raking leaves is a moderate and functional exercise, meaning it’s a total-body workout – about the equivalent to taking a brisk walk. Follow this advice, and you’ll not only keep up with fitness this fall, you’ll also have the best-looking yard on the block.

Lastly, make sure to use proper posture as to not hurt yourself so you can enjoy all the other joys that the fall season has to offer.
