EXERCISE MADE EASY
At last science has done something
helpful about all this exercising
business.
It has provided q way for a pers-
on to get all the exercise ne needs
without getting out Of bed mornings.
This Il the greatest need OF a
kind. Daily exercise has always lost
considerable appeal because Of the
fact you had to get up to get 1t.
By means Of this new invention,
which flashes electric currents
through the muscles of a PROSTATE
subject, a person may stay abed
and get all the benefits OF a gymna-
SUM or outdoor workout. This Is
something we have all dreamed OF.
The trouble with morning exercise,
for instance, has been that 1t re-
quired physical effort.
You had to get out Of bed. Often
you had to walk clear across a room
to the exercising machine or dump
bells. In some cases you even had TO
hike to another room fifteen or
twer.ty feet away for 1t. 1t required
resolution and strength Of character.
II has long been recognized that
physical culture could never be put
across with Americans in a big way
SO long as people had TO exert them
selves to get II. There are too many
mental obstacles.
Suppose you really feel the need
OF exercise. As soon as your eyes
are open In the morning you first
must concentrate on the idea. This
Is so abhorrent TO the average man
that he Immediately turns over and
goes TO sleep again.
But IL he is a little more resolute
and plays with the idea Of getting
physically fit. about the best he can
do is to think, well, exercise is a
good thing. ! approve Of it. The
question Is. when?" And before he
has reasoned that out to his salts
faction he has fallen asleep again
The attitude Of he average man
toward morning exercise has been.
aIf 7 had a medicine ball I would
put in a strenuous half hour with
a medicine ball and a pair Of dumb
bells, II / had a pair OF dumb-bells.'
This explains why so many men
have a surrlus of chins and are
troubled by shortness OF breath ven
when they open their mail. But nov
all will be different. With the new
incention announced by scientists
as successfully tested, you can get
all the exercise you need without the
slightest effort.
You Just stay abed and press the
button.
Or. better yet. ring for the butler
to press a button.
