Friday Fitness Funnies: Strengthen Your Funny Bone

Good morning and TGIF! It seems like Friday is coming around faster and faster. In some ways, that’s great because Friday means the start of the weekend. However, for a lot of us, Friday also means the start of the weekend hustle. This weekend, my daughter has a big Halloween party to go to at her gymnastics school. It’s a Parent’s Night Out that doubles as a Costume Party and Halloween celebration. She’s very excited about it. In the meanwhile, we have a dozen other things to do to get ready for Halloween on the 31st not to mention I’ve got to get ready for her birthday next month. Six years old. Wow – time really does fly.

So let’s take a few minutes to slow down the hectic pace and work on our funny bone. Without further ado – here are a few Friday Fitness Funnies that I hope will make you laugh.

Weekly Fitness Plan

  • Day One – Beat Around the Bush
  • Day Two – Buckle Your Shoes
  • Day Three – Drag Your Heels
  • Day Four – Jump on the Band Wagon
  • Day Five – Shop Til You Drop
  • Day Six – Pave The Road to Hell
  • Day Seven – Toot Your Own Horn

On Alternate Weeks, you may employ this program:

  • Day Three – Run in Circles
  • Day Four – Grind to a Halt
  • Day Five – Throw Fuel on the Fire
  • Day Six – Put Your Foot in Your Mouth
  • Day Seven – Lift Your Spirits

Be Creative

Do you have some exercise equipment collecting dust in the corners? If you do, here are a few – tongue in cheek – suggestions to put it to good use:

  • Got some dumbbells? They make great meat tenderizers, especially if you want to save some money on the cheaper cuts of steak – beat them silly with the dumbbell and you’ll have a great meal to chase the workout with
  • Got a thigh master? Perfect for wedging your child’s door open at night, without letting the animals push it wide
  • Rubber bands stuck in the drawer? Kids love these for toys and it’s a great way to play tug of war with the dog
  • Resistance bands just laying around? Stretch them between two hooks and you have a great place to hang clothes up out of the way
  • Exercise ball taking up space in the closet? Kick ball in the backyard just got pretty hilarious, but don’t let the kids smaller than the ball get hit with it – they may get run over
