I spent a good part of yesterday helping a friend with some yard work. As I was pulling up some deep roots from a plant she was getting rid of, I realized I was using the same technique as the deadlift. When I was chopping up a tree, I thought about how I was using my core to power the ax and protect my low back. (And the chopping action, which you can mimic at the gym with medicine balls, is a great full-body workout that quickly boosts your heart rate.)
So what you do in the gym translates to everyday life.
