shovelglove helps in Thailand
Greetings everybody. I have not written in long time but still shovelglove regularly. I am writing to tell how it helped me recently. I recently had to clear off some large trees of my land. I could not even find an axe anywhere here, so had to use cheap hatchet worth about 3 doaars in US money. Had to chop down 2 large trees and remove stumps with just this crummy tool and a pole saw. Thanks to working out with shovelglove I managed to do all this, as I was in shape from doing the woodchopping exercise. Also did lots of digging to get rid of stumps sp of course shovelglove helped with that too.

SG is excellent training for yard work.

Yes it is Kevin. Speaking about yard, here is an idea maybe some people would like. All you need is a small bit of land. Then get very big hoe and swing it overhead and chop into ground, like the woodchopper exercise. it is very good and even if you do not wish to plant or till the soil, as long as you have some dirt and enough room to swing hoe you can do it anytime you wish.

That's great to hear, chiangmaiboss.
It's even (occasionally) useful here in Cambridge, MA.
Actually if the ability to jostle children around effectively counts as useful, it certainly is. Though it would be nice to have an excuse to decline yet another "daddy, pick me up!" request...
Sorry for the delayed response. I've got a couple of big deadlines coming up for work and class which will continue to be distracting for another week. Then I'll go on a posting binge to make up for it.

I am in Nakhon Sawan for family event and brought my crochet hammer to do shovelglove while here. I did 30 minutes yesterday which was 15 minutes of fencepost driver and 15 minutes of shovel. Very good workout as it is very hot here now. I was first going to go outside and do 30 minutes with big hoe but a thunderstorm came up.
