Telemarket Wonder

As I sit here watching some early morning TV I see some crazy fanatical contraptions. Most designed to make you look odd while you sit at your TV working out your abs.

There are soooooo many problems with these machines as far as what they promise, but let's take a look at the actual reality of the telemarket fitness scam.

1. The higher population of devices are designed to pack flat so you can store them under the bed. The problem with this is, once you store it under your bed you will slowly become less inclined to bring it out time and time again to use it. The only good thing is it will easily fit under the bed with the other contraptions you have bought that also didn't work.

2. So let's say you won't store it away. Would you feel right having the odd machine/device sitting in front of your TV in the living area? Well they tell you that is how you should use it! Ideally you should have a separate room (or go to an actual gym) to perform your workouts. It makes sure you don't mix up the relaxing side of the living room with the what should be an active room.

3. If you read all the fine print, there are 2 secrets that the telemarketers have to disclose and 1 trick that they have up their sleeve for those who buy. The first secrecy is "simulated result" this is where the fat guy/gal magically morphs into the slender underwear model right before your eyes. This is, in case you weren't convinced, purely a simulation. The other fine print, "following a planned diet". This is the actual secret to the machines. They load you up with some DVD's and a diet book, and the books healthy eating tips are what will make you loose the most kgs! Whack brings me to the trick of it all. The 30 day money back guarantee. If you don't loose X amount of kgs in 30 days, simply return the product for a full refund! The truth is, with diet and a small amount of fitness activities you will drop 3 kgs easy as pie in that time. If you don't increase the fitness intensity and stick with the healthy eating... That's when the kg loss stops.

Do my tips!
Set up your activity room with any gym type equipment, or use a separate spot outside.

Never put your equipment into a storage spot that is difficult to get to. Store them neatly in the spot you want to be using it at.

Don't distract yourself with regular TV. Music clips and music are fine to keep you motivated but the news and other shows are best left to relax time.

So buy an ab-dingus-pro at your own risk.
