Exercising Before Yard Work

Times like this we are busy with our yard work or other things we usually be done during summer. Stretching prevents gardening injuries. Tending your shrubs can be a full-body workout. So before you strain a muscle yanking on a pesky plant, warm up with stretches. While standing, reach for the sky with both hands, then touch your toes. Next, keep your legs still and twist your torso left and right. Do each for 20 seconds.
