Now get off your ass, man! 
Jeez, at 40+ years old, I have to choose between one or the other activity !! It was basketball that day. Actually had a lot of fun varying the exercise routine.
Ten years ago I woulda done both. 20 years ago, I woulda also removed banana trees, too, except that there are none where I am. Maybe oak trees instead.
