Exercising--Redefined

Instead of going to Body Pump this morning, I'm testing the effectiveness of getting dressed in workout clothes and sitting at the computer investigating different styles of exercise.

Specifically, watching YouTube Pilate videos.

I call it vicarious exercise.

vi·car·i·ous
Pronunciation:
\vī-ˈker-ē-əs, və-\
Function:
adjective
Etymology:
Latin vicarius, from vicis change, alternation, stead — more at week
Date:
1637
1 a: serving instead of someone or something else b: that has been delegated
2: performed or suffered by one person as a substitute for another or to the benefit or advantage of another : substitutionary
3: experienced or realized through imaginative or sympathetic participation in the experience of another

4: occurring in an unexpected or abnormal part of the body instead of the usual one

Hey, I could start a new trend in exercising!
