The Miracle Body Builder

Almost all of us have received at one time or another some type of exercise equipment, maybe a weight set or an exercise bike. Now all we have to do is start a rigorous program of exercise to achieve that chiseled body that all will envy. In the field of physical fitness, there are all types of innovative equipment and gadgets to help us achieve our goal. Unfortunately motivation or lack of it gets in the way. Lifting large amounts of weight or peddling for hours without going anywhere can become quite boring and time consuming. Unfortunately, most exercise equipment ends up under the bed or in the closet and inevitably ends up at a yard sale. So inventors and professionals have come up with miracle exercise machines to help us achieve that hard body without consuming time or breaking a sweat. My favorite devise is the “Ab Blaster” a belt that is worn around the waste and delivers a series of electrical impulses that are supposed to shock your ab muscles into shape. This devise can be worn at any time and promises great results. Fat chance, pardon the pun! A voluntary form of shock treatments!
In order to achieve that Charles Atlas look you have to exert a little energy, good old fashion exercise and hard work is the only way to achieve a physique that all will envy. I have found several tools that can help achieve hard and healthy muscles without having to buy those miracle bodybuilding machines. Most of us already own these tools and don’t even know it. Tennis shoes are a good example, all you have to do is bend over, put them on and run, simple hey? Don’t forget the bicycle, one of the best cardiovascular workouts ever invented and you can do a little sight seeing during your workout. Next to the bike in the garage are several other products that guarantee a great workout. The Shove-All or shovel as it is more commonly called can tone the back and arms while at the same time accomplishing a job that has been put off for who knows how long. Next to the Shove-All is the Back-Hoe. Most of us have a garden or flowerbed that always needs tending too. After spending hours using the Back-Hoe in your garden, you will feel the results. Lets not forget the Rake by Jake, after you rake your yard several times with this devise you will feel muscles that you didn’t know you had!
Over the years, all of us have figured out how to make our everyday chores easier. We pay for this with our physical fitness finding simpler and quicker ways to accomplish strenuous activities. If we combine everyday efforts with physical fitness, we can accomplish two goals with one effort. In stead of using the electric hedge trimmers use the good old-fashioned clippers that require a little physical energy to operate. Park the riding lawn mower and break out the push mower. Push a sixty-pound mower around for two hours and see if you don’t get a good workout! Park the car a little further away from the house while unloading groceries, heck walk to the store! Just about everything we do can be done with more effort involved. In stead of a step stool, stretch it out, reach as far as you can, stretch those muscles! The simple act of bending over and picking up litter is a good workout and at the same time beautifies your community. Don’t spend good money on a Bow Flexx or a gas powered log splitter, just grab an ax and split those logs and melt those pounds away! Buy the largest mop you can find, one that will weigh ten pounds when wet and push that around for a while. Wax on! Wax off! Scrubbing can build great forearms. Let’s not forget the imagination, the imagination can come up with countless ways to exercise. As long as effort is being applied to what ever you might be doing, you’re exercising, and it is as simple as one and two and up and down!
