Who needs a fancy gym. Living in a rainforest will definitely help with this workout. Living in the country helps too. Lots of rain is a big bonus. So what is this country workout.
Take one very rainy winter.
Take one hot sunny summer's day.
Climb up one very tall ladder to the roof of the house.
Take up one stiff bristled broom with you.
And for the next hour....
Brush all the moss off of the roof while trying not to fall off said roof!

This works your back and arms and even legs while you balance in the blazing sun, sweating off all those pounds! This is how I spent my weekend but boy do the roofs look fantastic now!

TIP: prior to sweeping the roof. I treated the moss to a box of Tide detergent (Borax works well too). The tide is washed down the roof in the next rainfall, essentially killing the moss. You'll see it go from green to brown. Best to do this in the spring and brush off on a nice sunny day after the moss has dried up.
