March 26, 2019, Tuesday - Yard Work.
I was feeling pretty weak still today so I decided to take it a little easy and just do some yard work. The yard hadn't been manicured in almost 4 months and the weeds/grass was at "Bush" status. Plus, the weather was beautiful and I wanted to take advantage of that and be outside for a while. My wife tried to stop me because since my issues were coming from my lungs, mowing the lawn probably wasn't the best thing to do. But, I changed her mind. So, I wore my protective goggles and a surgical mask to keep out as many airborne particles from entering my lungs as possible and I got to it. It took me about 90 minutes and I was getting a good sweat on as well. And while I was doing the yard work, my quads were feeling a good burn from all the squatting and what not.
I didn't wear my HRM so I'm don't know how many calories I burned, but I would guess it was close to 350-400. It was a good nature workout and my lawn looks beautiful!
