We live in a neighborhood with normal 10,000 -16,000 sq foot lots..... (1/4-1/3 acre).... the house with driveway and sidewalk take up about half of that...

About half my neighborhood of fat lazy s has a riding mower... exercise?? What's that?

Two of them near me also have pools in the back yard so there is almost no grass.....so.... they drive their mowers for about 8 minutes then go sleep on the couch! (yes, they both have huge belly's)

Wonder why health insurance is getting so expensive?

 

Uh maybe it's not about exercise and they just want to get it done and over with?

And unless you have some old ass iron grass clipper I wouldn't ever consider mowing the lawn exercise.

 

Mowing my lawn is definitely exercise. I don't have a huge property, but with a power assisted mower it akes me over an hour and I have some rather steep hills to cover.

 

In san diego you may only have a 8000sq ft lot including your house.....so it may only take a few minutes no matter what you use.

I have ~15500 sq ft (but my house takes up a bunch of it) which is about as big as they get in my neighborhood... it takes me 40 minutes if i walk quickly. My mower is just a cheap non assisted mower so I can walk pretty quick with it.

I just think it is funny that the people who need the execise the most are the laziest.... they all have snow blowers too.... which *could* be due to back problems, but more than likely they are just too lazy to use a shovel.

 

It'd take me longer to mow my lawn on a ride on then it does with my power assisted mower and I have a 1/4 acre block with a pool. I'd spend all my time back and forward and still have to go back with a weed wacker to get the bits I'd missed

p.s. As soon as I read the title I knew this was your work Scot my boy You could right a book on lazy fat people I swear! I bet he's posting over on the John Deere forums about how his nosy neighbour stares in a jealous rage every time he gets out his mower

 

now that ain't a bad idea.

It is ashame to see soooo many people in the world in such poor health. I am the head "wellness committee" person at my work. We have so many people who just don't do anything but eat, smoke and sit. then they get pissed when the Health Insurance doesn't treat them like kings and queens.

If you eat like a big piggy, smoke and do no exercise.....then your heart has problems... don't go crying to me about it.

Mowing the grass is a great way to get some easy exercise! PHUCK that shit... i'll sit my fat ass on the tractor!

People don't care until it is too late.... then the medical system has to spend zillions of $ on them to keep them alive so they can continue to sit on a couch! Good shit.
