******! I can never embed right.

Here's the link to Gizmodo.

I THINK I DID IT RIGHT!! LoL

*claps for self*

finally a funny snl sketch!

My wife said she wanted one of those. I just looked at her. She's like "what?"....lol

Believe it or not, Coy saw one of these in a Rite-Aid and was all like "Hey! That looks cool and it would work! I know it would!".

I just snickered and shook my head. I didn't explain to her the reasoning. LoL

My wife thought the exact same thing. I did the research for her and it is actually LESS EFFECTIVE than regular weightlifting sessions. Straight from Wired UK's review:

Jerking this 5-pounder only got our max heart rate up to 114, which pales in comparison to a standard weightlifting session, let alone back-to-back sets of push-ups. More importantly, after a few days of use, our muscles didn't feel nearly as sore as they do from weightlifting. And, as everyone knows: no pain, no gain.

Most health and fitness places give it a "Do Not Buy".

Now back on topic. I agree with GG, this is the only SNL skit that I've found remotely funny.
