Absolutely. This is the reason I haven’t switched to a self propelled mower. My land is hilly and gives me a real workout every couple of days. I used to jog every afternoon but I have terrible knees.
Hey Alyn, you’re looking great brother! I too started on a mission to do something about my wellness and weight last year and I found that the yard work was a great supplemental calorie burn. Keep up the great work 💪💪
Congratulations on the weight loss. I am a online fitness coach who creates nutritional and exercise programs. I can agree with two key points in this video. Knowing when you’re in a calorie deficit is very important and using low intensity steady state cardio like walking aka mowing the lawn to further create a deficit is a helpful tool. Great video as always and thanks for all your lawn advice it has taken my lawn to the next level. Happy holidays everyone!
I have a small, but growing mowing and lawn treatment company and I lose 25-30 lbs every spring and keep it off until the season ends. Keeping it off in the winter is my problem.
i got some lawn renovation. i wanna cut everything very low and then kill it and then i wanna dethatch my lawn to get rid of as much dead grass and i go with a cool season tall fescue and when the lawn get fully grown i wanna do a lawn level. hope get rid of the mole problems to
Al I gotta thank you for your vids and sage guidance on all things lawn. I started watching a few years ago and can pretty confidently say that I have not only achieved dominance on my street but in the whole village of over 4000 residents. All because of you and YM products such as green punch, liquid iron, root growth stimulant and your backpack sprayer. I enjoyed the mow 69 times April to November. Right now past mid December I have the greenest lushest grass ever! Nobody else is close. Cheers to you you nut you. 🍺 Sincerely
And yet it seems like robotic mowers could someday soon be the norm. Mowing is the one thing I enjoy, and won't have it any other way. Glad you made this video. The new you is looking fit. Congrats. Keep doing what you love and loving what you do.👍~ mike
Nice work It's really good Exercise. I have about 50 push-mow lawns I look after on a fortnightly basis. I was overweight when I started in Feb this year. 15 years of an office job. I have dropped a lot of weight.
Unfortunately this won't work for me, but at least I'm not drinking beer while on my SCAG zero turn mower. You have a really great RUclips Channel. So much useful info!
Good FYI! Yard work is a good workout period. Im in north Florida. I have 4 yards all on the same block. In July...I cant do them all on the same day. Burns alot of calories. 😅 👍👍
I refer to this as doing my own stunts. Learning new skills, getting a workout and saving money while at it is the way to go. Save your money for the jobs you hate, can't do or don't have time to do.
Congrats on your fat loss brotha! Another thing to note- Outside exercise is better than indoor exercise at the gym. Plus you are getting stuff accomplished when mowing your turf! Mow strong folks!
Merry Christmas Alan and happy New Year I hope it's a good one thank you for everything that you taught me man you really did change my lawn and help me out with any questions God bless you and your beautiful family in Jesus name amen and of course don't forget Jesus loves you
Mowing is the best workout for sure. Question my friend, I just put down new zoysia in north Florida, and was wondering when I should mow in the spring because it’s about 2 inches thick from the farm and I already have existing zoysia one season old. Basically will it root while it’s laying dormant in my backyard now until spring? Thanks man
I probably burn more than that because I have a ditch that I usually mow at some variant of an up and down the hill direction, I do it so I can vary the stripe pattern and be better for the grass but I do enjoy the extra workout of going up the hill.
I tell everyone I know about this, if they are already somewhat fit I suggest a true non-propelled push mower but with big back wheels. It will turn you into a GI Joe.
Just out of curiosity, why do you choose to use an elliptical machine over a treadmill? I’ve been thinking of getting a treadmill, but maybe elliptical is the way to go.
When I was younger, I used an old-school Stairmaster. The elliptical is kind of the evolution of that. It's just what I have always used. Old habits die hard.
Good job! I bet Peloton will be contacting Allyn soon for designing a virtual lawn mower exercise machine, featuring Allyn and maybe Ryan Knorr as trainers! hahah.
Ephesians 5:1-7 King James Version 5 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; 2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. 3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; 4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. 5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. 6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. 7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11 9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
Galatians 5:19-23 King James Version 19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
Colossians 3:5-8 King James Version 5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience: 7 In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them. 8 But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
Very annoying. If you’re heavyset your face looks fuller and you look younger. When you lose weight it makes you look older in the face. Pretty annoying

Love it, I usually also point out to neighbors and friends who question why I have a manual reel mower that it's very good exercise too!
Absolutely. This is the reason I haven’t switched to a self propelled mower. My land is hilly and gives me a real workout every couple of days. I used to jog every afternoon but I have terrible knees.
I’ve missed the videos Allyn. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Here’s to a happy and healthy 2023. Looking forward to next season
Thanks Andy! Merry Christmas to you too!
Way to go Allyn!! Yes, I did the same analysis some time ago and discovered similar results. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Hey Alyn, you’re looking great brother! I too started on a mission to do something about my wellness and weight last year and I found that the yard work was a great supplemental calorie burn. Keep up the great work 💪💪
I too love a nice leisurely mow job...
Lookin good...the lawn does too!

When I worked for TruGreen same thing. We all gained weight during winter layoff.
Congrats! You look strong like bull💪🏽. I burned 6 calories watching your video. Great starting point. . .I need to follow your lead 👍🏽
🤣🤣🤣
I can’t mow anymore until next season. At least you still can, it more entertaining and enjoyable. Good job

Congrats man! You can definitely tell you’ve put in the work. Great video for sure! I start January myself lol. Looking forward to it.
I wondered what changed. Way to go!

Way to keep it going, LCN. Looks like you’re shaping up the pecks too!
working on the whole package lol
Happy New Year 🎉
I miss your weekly uploads ❤

Goooo big dog. Glad to see your happy and healthy. Looking mighty good also. Lcn for life
Unfortunately this won't work for me, but at least I'm not drinking beer while on my SCAG zero turn mower. You have a really great RUclips Channel. So much useful info!
Thanks Marc!
Merry Christmas Allyn! I liked the video, but with my zero turn I doubt I come anywhere near that calorie burn!
Good FYI! Yard work is a good workout period. Im in north Florida. I have 4 yards all on the same block. In July...I cant do them all on the same day. Burns alot of calories. 😅 👍👍

Looking good Alan! Elbo splints work well too.
Light exercise is good exercise.
Allyn you look great!!Thanks for the great tips!!
Thank you !
Damn bro! Went from fluffy to hardly fluffy!
Congrats
Even though the robotic mowers are coming, always enjoyable walking and enjoying the mow 🎉
Thats why I use a push mower "fitness is my passion"
Great vid. Are you doing a Christmas lighting video this year simple and classy ?
Congrats on your fat loss brotha! Another thing to note- Outside exercise is better than indoor exercise at the gym. Plus you are getting stuff accomplished when mowing your turf! Mow strong folks!
The only thing better than a slow, leisurely, enjoyable mow job is a
😇
Great job. Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Shoveling snow is also a good workout, but I'd rather be mowing! 😀
Awsome weight loss!!! Should I mow my Provista St.Aug that often? I typically do every 10-14days
Great vid AL
Question. Mow the lawn slightly wet or wait till it dries?
Looking 👌
1:08 what’s the size of the lawn for that 45 mins?
I probably burn more than that because I have a ditch that I usually mow at some variant of an up and down the hill direction, I do it so I can vary the stripe pattern and be better for the grass but I do enjoy the extra workout of going up the hill.
Love it!
Looking good Bro!! Keep up the amazing work 😎

I lose about 3 lbs every time I mow.
95 deg., heat index 110 deg....🥵
I feel that!
Now I can eat all the pizza and wings, drink all the beer I want! I just gotta mow every day. Even in winter.
Awesome job Alan
Good for you uncle Al!
Just out of curiosity, why do you choose to use an elliptical machine over a treadmill? I’ve been thinking of getting a treadmill, but maybe elliptical is the way to go.
Way easier on the joints, at least thats the reason for me.
When I was younger, I used an old-school Stairmaster. The elliptical is kind of the evolution of that. It's just what I have always used. Old habits die hard.
Great job sir 👍
So badass . Your looking great man!
thanks bro!
Good job! I bet Peloton will be contacting Allyn soon for designing a virtual lawn mower exercise machine, featuring Allyn and maybe Ryan Knorr as trainers! hahah.
Dude, congrats!
First Aussie 😁. Al, get your mow on mate. 🎅
Backyard 2 hrs manual mower
Atta boy Al! What’s your weight loss secret?
Do u still use your lawn boy?
More like fame and ego are good diet and exercise motivation 💪
Congrats on the weight loss!
I keep telling this to my wife lol
Guess I need to stop drinking milkshakes while I mow 😉
ha ha!!
Mowing the lawn with a ZTR or riding mower burns very few calories, fyi
You know that's right !
Are you not lighting up your home for Christmas this year???
He said he was having to get a new roof due to damage so he wouldn't be doing his Christmas lights.
I forgot to mention I'm in SE Michigan.
Most importantly, it’s infinitely more fun mowing than be on the ungodly elliptical machine. 🤩
Imagine how many extra calories you’d burn if it wasn’t a self propelled mower.
How many calories will I burn using my ride on mower? 😂
Just lay off the carbs and thank me later.

I lose 3 to 4 lbs using a push mower for 2 hrs. in one day. No joke.

@@TheLawnCareNut For sure, I’m with you on that. I deal with the same thing
Looking good Allyn. If you ever go to Gecko's down there say hi to my parents.
Buy a ZTR. JMO
I own 3 of them 😁

You are half the man you use to be, in a good way. Way to go. 👍💚🦸
