We don't really know what else to say about the Hawaii Chair. Watching people fidget suggestively on what looks like an office desk chair makes us uncomfortable for some reason. Maybe it's the way they're pretending there's nothing weird going on?

<p>And even if you're not a gym /abs buff it's not hard to exercise.   Just starting walking - one foot in front of th other - or go biking 8-9 miles on the weekend</p>]]>

        <![CDATA[<p>@<a href="#c4055810" rel="nofollow">clevershark</a>: Costco sells those actually, and they cost $2.5k! I couldn't figure out what the "power plate" was, then when it clicked, I couldn't stop laughing. Who in the world buys those things?</p>
<p>This hula product makes me upset. No, not upset at how dumb it is, rather, how dumb I am to not have lowered myself to thinking about such a thing in the first place. I really, really need to figure out how these people come up with these things, so I can make money too.</p>
<p>How about a two-legged chair? Think of the fat you'll burn as you try to stay upright! I'll call it the "Carb Chair!" Your body actually burns calories, WHILE YOU SIT ON IT! It's like magic weight loss but without the effort! Only 15 easy payments of $16.99.</p>]]>

I saw them sit on that thing, and I can't see how it is at all comfortable for even 5 minutes. One of the worst product I've seen. It's like a knockoff on the iGallop thing from Shaper Image.</p>]]>

And the reason they bought it.... To try it out.  They have maybe used it once or twice.  I've tried it out too and it's a piece of crap.  And at about $500, it's such a waste of money.  I still can't believe they have that thing.  Everything I see it in there house, I just shake my head at it...</p>]]>

These chairs are like Richard Simmons only in that they are ridiculous to look at. Simmons actually helps seriously overweight people make themselves better.
