Watching Exercise Videos Should Count As Exercise
Let influencers do the work for us
Editor’s Note: Occasionally, our friend feels compelled to share a strongly held opinion. This is one of those times.
Spring has sprung, and with it the realization that winter wasn’t really the problem with my New Year’s resolutions to “get in shape” (which has now morphed into simply “don’t become a new shape”). And yet, don’t our intentions mean more than the yawning chasm between aspiration and action?
That’s why I believe watching fitness videos should count as actual fitness. Sure, I don’t wake up at 4 a.m. for a brisk 5K, followed by a cold plunge and a 30-minute infrared scrotal sauna—but dammit, I follow people who do. Why exercise when I can absorb their exercise instead?
