Why does the lower bound on the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function make it non-integrable?

We have that $$Hf(x) geq frac{c}{|x|^n}$$ for some $c>0$ whenever $|x| geq 1$. How does this lower bound show that that the maximal function is non-integrable? Perhaps if we could show that $frac{c}{|x|^n}$ isn't integrable outside the unit ball we could show this. However, I am not sure how to do this. Similar questions seem to imply that it is obvious given the inequality.

  • I'm not sure how to use polar coordinates in $R^n$. Is there a way to do it without polar coordinates?
