People think that raking leaves is easy.
Leaves are generally feather-light and don't weigh a lot. Raking leaves in a haphazard manner can give you an aching back. According to Elaine Anderson, director, Outpatient Physical Therapy at UPMC Passavant, long hours of leaf-raking often causes back pain to men and women. Raking is a vigorous activity that uses muscles that may have not been used in a while. There is also the risk of overstressing your heart muscle, so be aware of your limits.
