Dare I Ask - ShakeWeight DVDs with Jen Galardi?

lorajc · 01-27-11, 08:59 PM

I just saw the commercial for the shakeweight and noticed Jennifer Galardi instructs 3 workouts for this. I love her. Does anyone have these? Is it worth getting if you love Jen?

I saw that to. The workouts look fun but I don't know about that weight.

I can't even think about using a workout with the Shake Weight after the South Park episode.

My sons (age 19 and 21) saw this episode and thought it would be hilarious to get me this for Christmas. I don't use it very much because I start thinking about that South Park episode. I'm also waiting for my cab fare.

It looks like it would chew up your joints.

BF hadn't heard of the shake weight before the South Park episode. I pulled up a clip from one of their commercials online for him, and he replied, "Oh my. They weren't exaggerating at all, were they?"
I like Jen Galardi, but the shake weight is just too much.

(ETA - as in too much like how it's depicted on South Park, not too much money. Although, I'm pretty sure when I say one in a store I was surprised by how expensive they are!)

Trying to be charitable--I think it might have a similar effect as a bodyblade or maybe ropes, in which case it would be pretty good for them. It would just look ... vulgar.

The SNL commercial is priceless --

I know I could never do a Shakeweight workout, even if it were done well, without laughing.

Seriously, how can you be serious about working out with this shake weight without thinking of South Park, SNL, Jimmy Kimmel, I mean what was this company thinking!!!
