    At my local shopping centre, there's a store devoted to those vibration things. For thousands of dollars
    Sah stupid.

    My nearest mall, they have a display stand. There was nobody showing interest, all of the machines arranged in an arc, at the back was a very large lady sat at the sales desk, unhinging her jaw to eat her McDonald's. My wife tried to take a picture, but I managed to convince her there was no way of doing it without the girl realising and being devastated.

    this is just stupid

    lets see, wear a belt all day that contracts your abs with questionable results, or do 10 minutes, 3 times a week for the same results. Hmmmmm.

    some people will do anything to avoid exercise.

    The "spin gym" is by far the dumbest fitness invention. Even more than the Shake Weight. Trust me on this one... "From biceps to triceps." *sigh* :noway:

    I think it's called the ab circle pro (I just Googled it). If anyone actually bought it, there is a class-action lawsuit so you can get a refund because it doesn't work! lol

    Awesome. I had one as a kid. It lit up and whistled. How can they possibly have thought nobody would call them on this?
    That's it, I'm going to take and old fashioned toy and sell it as a workout.

    Damn! Someone beat me to it!!!!!!!!
