Just when I thought there was one to many fitness gimmicks, here comes the "Shake Weight". I was watching TV and I see a commercial for dumbbell that vibrates simulating a jerking movement that apparently helps you get in shape after 40 million jerks. Are you serious? Maybe someone thought that the dumbbell needed some excitement. or the wanted to take the plunger to the next level.

People are really saying that thisworks. "o man, I feel the burn" Well I hate to bust your bubble but if your do anything for so long its going to burn. You can buy a regular dumbbell and do the same motion and it will fell exactly the same. It may even work better. All I’m saying is that if you are looking for an excuse to really workout and already have a million products in your closet you don’t use, go get it. And one more thing that confused me was why the woman’s product comes on all day, but the men’s product one comes on after midnight. Are the men in the commercial embarrassed to use this too? What would your mother say if she saw you using this...lol
