Favorite Workouts

I don't have a favorite workout; I hate working out. People who really enjoy a vigorous workout just for the sake of working out - like my wife - baffle me. Human being's weren't created to do this stuff. The problem is that what passes for hard work for most of us - me - now consists of sitting in at a desk for hours each day, sitting in a car for an hour or more each day, and then sitting on a couch watching crap for about 4 hours. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Still searching for a Wii Fit!
