Snow shoveling require* a lot
of energy and muscle. Pushtig a
stalled auto out of a snow hank
is even more demanding.
Once again, the American Med
ical Association reminds men of
middle age and beyond, especial
ly those who are overweight and
lead otherwise sedentary lives, to
take it easy in clearing away the
snow from the walks and drive
ways.
If you're in reasonably good
health, snow shoveling may ac
tually be good exercise if you
take it easy. This could mean
getting up 15 minutes earlier <>n
the mornings ol a fresh snow
fall, to allow time for leisurely
shoveling, with frequent brief
rest periods. The frantie, hurried
a machine that blows or scrapes
aside the snow with the power of
a small engine substituting for
approach to clearing the drive in
an effort to get to the office on
time moat defir.itely is not good
lor nniin
Mott common serious health re
suit of overexrrtion from snow
shoveling is a la-art attack. If
ycur physical condition it such
that you are already prone to
heart trouble, the extra exertion
•an hasten an attack. If your
heart is sound, it likely won't he
damaged.
less you have had a recent
checkup, however, yo ucannot be
certain that you argn't a likely
candidate for heart trouble.
Don't be ash; mod to invest in
muscle power. Or don't hesitate
to hire the neighborhood lad
from down the street to shovel
your walks.
It's hard for the American male
t > accept, hut the chances arc
tlicit the lady of the house is in
bettor physical condition than
tier office worker husband. An
hour or two daily pushing mop
and brooev keeps milady in good
shape for shoveling.
Snow shoveling can he good
for you. if you use a little- com
mon sense-. Light cxcre-ise and
fresh air in the winter both are
important to maintaining health.
Just don't overdo it.
