Backyard Buffer
Want the results of a runner but don’t want to run? We all know that running is one of the best ways to burn calories and shed fat but lets face it, sometimes running can be a bit boring. Instead of doing the same old running routine, switch it up and go to your backyard for this backyard buffer. It will burn about the same amount of calories in the same amount of time as running would. Make it more fun…..grab a partner or your dog!
