Health and Exercise

You don’t need ab workouts! Instead of doing real exercises to try and strengthen yourself the old-fashioned way, check out these 5, totally-viable, completely-not-ridiculous ways to replace them for good.

#5 No One Cares About Lean Abs in 2010.

What, you didn’t hear about it? Yeah, no one is really doing those ab workouts anymore, because no one really gives a crap about lean, nice abs. It’s all about belly flab nowadays — rockin’ that beer belly is the surest way to self-confidence and romantic success. Maybe we’ll bring back the lean, toned look one day, but for now, eat on!

#4 Most Extra Fat Finds its Way to Easily Concealable Areas.

Sure we were just chatting about beer bellies before, but really, they aren’t a big deal, because your body has this amazing system in place — when you eat too much and develop some fat, your body just shuffles that extra flab over to some hidden little area that no one can see, like on your back somewhere. You’ll never look big to anyone!

#3 No One Goes to the Beach Anymore.

Think about it. We’ve got global warming, we’ve got pollution, it’s all pretty crazy, and who really wants to go to the beach anymore? No one really spends any time there — I haven’t heard of anyone going to the beach in years, and I’m practically an expert about these things.

#2 You Can Just Exercise At Your Desk!

You’ve seen those ads on TV, right? You just strap some electrodes to your stomach, turn on a noisy box with a bunch of wires poking out of it, and — if these ads haven’t lied to me — start losing all that stomach fat immediately! You don’t have to break a sweat or burn any calories, because a machine apparently does it for you! Goodbye all other types of workouts!

#1 What Could Ever Be Wrong With Diet Pills?

Load yourself up with pills, you say? Hey, why not? Sure, they might just be sugar pills that will trick you into a placebo effect, or they could have serious negative side effects on your body. But how will you know if you don’t try, right? Why not be a guinea pig for a dubious industry? Forget those ab workouts!
