Guys have bowflex...girls have...

| | Comments (0)

I invested in some at-home exercise equipment. I bought some dumbbells, a Bosu, an ab ball with a stretchy band, and a medicine ball. I didn't realize how girly it all looked until I got it all together.

The dumbbells are decidedly girly. Even the manufacturer thinks so. As I was opening each of the boxes I noticed that the two pound and three pound dumbbells had photos of a woman on both sides. However the five pound and eight pound dumbbells had a picture of a guy on one side and a woman on the other.

Is this not the girliest set of equipment you've ever seen?

I was really glad that the Bosu came with a foot pump and the ab ball came with a hand pump.

The weights and the medicine ball also came with suggestions for lifts. I have four hand weight posters because one came in every box. I also have a poster for medicine ball exercises.

Oh well. Even if it is girly, I've got plenty of exercises I can do. It should help since I spend most of my day sitting now. At least it's something to laugh at.
