Excuses for not exercising

[sun rise]

Surely we can do better than: These Are Some of the Most Amusingly Bizarre Excuses People Have Used to Avoid the Gym

1. My cat is depressed
2. I had to take my son’s bicycle into service
3. I exercised in my dreams
4. I stubbed my pinky toe
5. My pancreas hurts
6. I took Viagra and am too engorged to wear workout clothes

Then among the list of most common:

• I feel self conscious today – 14%
• I just got my hair done – 12%
• Picking up my kids is my workout – 10%
• My phone battery is too low – 10%
• I just got my nails done – 9%

I exercised my right to post in this thread. I think that's more than enough exercise for me for one day.

Exercise is bad for your health. I tore an achilles jogging. I sustained a low back injury doing sit ups.

Sports are dangerous too. My list of injuries playing sports is too long to post.

Yeah, but I've noticed that you guys get plenty of exercise on RF jumping to conclusions.

For me going to the gym is an excuse....I go there just to snoop around in the males' locker room.

But what if it was the "exercise" which contributed to the "bad knees?

There are several competitions. High jump - a tower of assumptions leading to an unwarranted conclusion. Or a broad jump - a set of illogical and unproven assumptions leading to a broadly-based oddly built conclusion?
