Most people do not realize it but shoveling snow is the number one cause of heart attack outside the home during wintertime. This is because it is a huge shock to your system going out into the cold, especially in the morning after you just woke up and your blooding is not really pumping yet. Many people will go outside and grab a snow shovel and take a big scoop and over load their body and their frame causing issues and damage to their bio-systems. Some people get so damn tired of shoveling the snow that they move to Arizona, California, Florida, Texas or the Gulf Coast and say good riddens to the North. They are happy to go and never want to come back, well until the Hurricanes hit or an Earthquake rumbles.
There is a right way and a wrong way to shovel snow and you before you take an extra big scoop you need to know what you are doing. Here is a good link to help you understand what you are doing, so you do not get yourself into trouble or write a check that your body cannot cash.

You may even wish to higher out a service and stay inside where it is warm. Some say with natural gas prices up that this year they will be saving the money and shoveling their own snow. If this is the case be careful out there and save your money, because real estate prices in Florida and Arizona keep going up and on the Gulf Coast well those houses keep getting flattened. Think on this.
