There's nothing like doing pushups to help you
relax. Like this morning, I did 25 pushups and I was
completely relaxed. I fainted.
My
late uncle was a real physical fitness fanatic. He
had himself buried face down in case there are
pushups after death.
I
say it's time for society to put an end to cruel and
unusual punishment. That's right, folks, I'm against
jogging.
The streets aren't safe any more, especially after
dark. Last night I took the dog out for a walk and
got run over by a jogger.
Personally, I don't think any one should be allowed
to jog on public sidewalks without first completing
a course in jogger education.
And passing both a written and a sanity test.
The physical fitness craze doesn't make sense. The
guy who exercises every day and the person who never
exercises at all end up with the same thing -- a
body that will last a lifetime.
I
bought one of those exercise bikes. They come in two
models: expensive and more expensive.
An exercise bike is supposed to take the place of
running. But the first thing you do when you see the
price is run.
I'm so overweight, I have an exercise
bike built for two.
Using an exercise bicycle in your house gives your
cardiovascular system the same workout as jogging
outdoors, plus an added advantage: you can have the
heart attack in the privacy of your home.
Everywhere you look you see signs of the
fitness craze. When I stopped at a red light
yesterday I saw a guy in a jogging outfit doing sit-ups,
push-ups, and knee-bends.
He was in the Toyota behind me.
I'm in such lousy shape I get out of breath watching
"Desperate Housewives."
The latest exercise fad is called "Inversion
Therapy." It involves doing exercises while you're
hanging upside-down. Hanging upside-down cures back
pain -- the nagging kind of back pain you get from
trying to hang upside-down.
I tried that inversion therapy, where you
hang upside-down by your ankles. A bat fell in love
with me.
Hanging upside-down clears your mind and
let's you concentrate on one thing -- how you're
going to get rightside-up.
My wife doesn't like it when I hang
upside-down. She has to vacuum the dandruff off the
carpet.
(Any Guy) bought Carman
Electra's exercise DVDs.
And I'll make a promise right now. If he follows her
program and winds up looking like her, I'll date
him.
When I work out at the spa I like the rowing machine.
Your muscles are tense; your heart is racing; and
you never move an inch. It's sort like being in a
traffic jam.
I
don't like exercising. My leotards run faster than I
do.
I
did 15 minutes on my exercise bike this morning. One
minute of peddling and 14 minutes trying to get off.
I
HAD to start exercising. I simply could not bear the
thought of having to walk around the rest of my life
in this body.
You know something has to be done when you get out
of breath trying to bend over and touch your thighs.
You talk about out of shape! In order for
me to do a sit-up,
I had to hook
my thumbs in
my belly button!
