The stupidness begins... Shelle got us this exercise ball :jump: to use...

There are just four core/base exercises to do (although there are LOTS of extra exercises to add as you advance).

You're also supposed to use it to sit on while watching TV and even at the computer. Heck, supposedly, lots of folks have even replaced their office chair at work so they can work out during the day without any formal program.

Sounds easy, don't it? Just play with the big ball and try to advance to more than just sitting on it.

Advance?

Heck! Just sitting on the thing IS a major challenge for ME 'cuz I keep forgetting I'm on a stupid BALL and start rolling off...in any number of directions! I would do better just to fall over, but I try to catch myself and...well, I guess THAT'S where the "exercise" comes in. You know what they say about "a body in motion wants to remain in motion?" Well, I can tell you this much...It ain't doing much for my Jeopardy answers and my fat gut and flabby thighs are on fire! Helll...even my fat is sore.

I can't even stay up on it just sitting DOWN and it's nothing more than a giant kids' rubber ball! "Advance"...yeah, right!

This damn stupid thing is literally kicking my a--!

And it makes everything sore...

Who invented this stupid thing, anyway?!!

And "NO"...you're NOT getting any pictures of ME on it...errr...or OFF it...ummm...or even on the floor next to it in a semi-conscious state!




Ummm... Just an added note to this ongoing adventure...
...This weekend Shelle says we have to go looking for "stabilizing walking shoes"...

I HATE SHOPPING!!!

Guess it was more like an extra thick beach ball.

Anyway.......

She started bouncing on it and got to the third or fourth bounce before it split half way around.

Very surprised look on the bolnde's face when her butt hit the floor.
