Saturday night workout update. Tonight’s infomercial featured an “inversion table.” For low payments of only $14.99, it promised “relief of tension.” To me it looked more like something that belonged in a home dungeon.
I eagerly awaited my own “relief” as I watched a pretty fitness model clad in tight spandex strap her ankles to the device then lean back with her arms stretched over her head like she was on a torture rack.
Sadly I felt only ”frustration”
as the commercial quickly cut to video of grey haired middle-aged men using the device to “relive lumbar pain.”
I most likely won’t be purchasing this piece of fitness equipment. However it
did give me an idea (actually quite a few of them…
). Maybe I could get my friend
Chalene to try it out with me? We could take turns. Or better still, use two of them. I'm sure we could make it work. Bet
that would “relieve tension.”
