This is so clearly not a unitasker! You can shape up your abs while doing office work, giving interviews, or watching telev—

Oh, wait. No you can’t.

The last time my friend and I went in to get pedicures, one of the manicurists was sitting in the back (on one of these chairs) eating her lunch. My friend and I could see her, but we couldnt figure out what on earth was going on! Was she moving the chair around in circles? Was it the chair that was moving? How was she getting her food in her mouth with all that movement?
Now i know! thanks for posting.

I think the FTC finally fined that company selling that gut shocker contraption. How long before they take action on the hula chair?

Wasn’t this thing on Failblog.org a while ago? It was good entertainment for the duration of the video. Thanks for posting this!

OMG! Has no one else noticed the potential for sexual harassment lawsuits with this chair at work? It looks a little provocative to me!!! Too much effort was used to create a machine that requires no effort.

I was just having the worst day and this significantly improved it. Your post, NOT the hawaii chair, for clarification! Thanks.

Once I got past laughing myself silly at the video, I read (and laughed at)the text:

The Hawaii Chair’s exercises strongly affect your waist, buttocks and thighs to thaw and loosen redundant fat. [Didn't realize my fat was frozen---it certainly is redundant!--LOL]

Old men can use the Hawaii Chair easily to help improve the operation of digestive and cardiovascular systems. [Does that mean after they throw up, they have cardiac arrest??--LOL]

This is laugh out loud hilarious.

Just a couple of days ago, I was commenting that I hate exercise sooooooooooo much that I wished there was something I could strap myself into. Now, I’m not so sure.

Thanks for the chuckle,

oh boy, that’s hilarious. “Takes the work out of your workout”? Takes the work out of your workday too – how on earth could anyone concentrate? I wonder how many takes it took to make the infomercial?

This is a beauty.

^ what she said! I haven’t had a true laugh-out-loud moment for a while. I’m glad I wasn’t drinking any coffee at the time…

That is the most ridiculous item I’ve ever seen. But I can totally see why someone would buy it, for the sheer entertainment value.

I think that the chair gave me a great ab workout… my abs are sore from how much I laughed at that Ellen clip. Too funny!

Forgot to add: But it wouldn’t qualify as exercise, since the chair’s doing all the work!

When the guy said, “It feels GREAT on my abs!” I thought he was going to say something other than “abs.”

It looks like it would be a fun toy, if you have $300 to spare, and maybe it would help limber up a spine that gets stiff from too much sitting. Then again, so would getting out of your chair now and then and doing a few short stretches.
