Is walking in a grocery store with a cart the same thing
as 'power walking' in a mall or 30 minutes on a treadmill?

3. Doesn't filling a cart with beer in the store
kind of defeat the purpose of exercising?

4. are you getting your heart rate up to 50% to 90% of max rate?
if not, then no, it's not the same.

5. If you're tear-assing around the store for 30 minutes straight and
NOT stopping to look at the food, MAYBE.... :P

7. If the cart is full of bricks and the grocery store is on a slant
Otherwise, probably not. ;)

8. No, but I'll tell you what IS
Go to Home Depot and get a flat lumber cart.

Put fifty 2x4s on said cart.

Push the cart around the store for half an hour.

Then put the lumber back in the rack.
