The body at rest is a liar. The body at rest doesn’t want to be disturbed. The body at rest will tell you that everything is fine and there’s no need to get all sweaty.
Things are good just the way they are.
The body at rest will tell you the couch you are currently warming is where you should be after a long day of more sitting…in your car, at the office or at the bar.
What are asses for if you can’t sit on them, right?
After you stop working the body for a while, it stops asking to be worked. The muscles no longer need to feel some pain at the pump.
It stops being restless and settles in for those long periods of inactivity and waits patiently for the inevitable scale shock, pants don’t fit, prediabetic moment, erectile dysfunction or bad diagnosis.
Oh, the misery.
Your body at rest will even tell you to ask your wife to get you another beer while you watch other grown men get some exercise on TV.
You’re being lied to.
You need to move it or lose it. What are you waiting for, an invitation?
From a liar?
You just got it, fatboy.
