Dead Weight

Hey folks, are you like me and enjoy running and the scenery that goes along with it, but can't be bothered by physically touching ground?  Well, you and I are in luck, neighbor.  Feast your eyes on the greatest invention since the Shower Mic:





The Treadcycle(TM) runs entirely on human momentum, kind of like . . .  a human.  Is it just me, or does this contraption make biking and running on a treadmill look physically easier to do in comparison?  Seriously, leave it up to a Canuck to invent a new way of jogging in the park that requires a bike helmet. 

Did you catch the chrome wheels?  I wonder if the Eddie Bauer model comes with upgraded spinners - anything to distract park goers from the middle-aged man riding a scooter.  Maybe multi-colored handlebar tassels are an upgrade option for the discerning gentleman.    

The next invention on the docket for this aspiring Thomas Edison? 

Have you ever wanted to go for a swim AND lift weights, but you only had time for one or the other??  Well, thanks to the folks who brought you the Treadcycle(TM), a tough exercise decision is no more! 

Introducing, SwimMass(TM), the revolutionizing system of ankle and wrist mounted water weights developed specifically with muscle growth in mind.  Each 25lb apparatus is ergonomically and aerodynamically designed for optimal water movement, no matter what style of swimming you prefer (backstroke, breaststroke, butterfly, and more!). 

The ankle and wrist weights are backed by a 100% moneyback guarantee not to fall off during workout.  In fact, a new trademarked, polymer-metal blend fastener is impossible to remove until completely dry - well after your workout has completed! 

SwimMass(TM) will have you swimming with the fishes and looking buff in no time!
