"The Hawaii Chair"

This is a home workout product that I found on an informerical.  It is called the "Hawaii Chair." It has been reviewed on The Ellen Show and Rachael Ray.

The "Hawaii Chair" claims to make working-out effortless.  It claims that you can even use it while your working at your office. It claims to help you "stay in shape while you're sitting down."

*Here is the truth: There is no such thing as an effortless workout. Exercise is not easy and requires hard work.  If the exercise machine that you're using claims to give fantastic results with little to no effort, it most likely won't work. If the product does not make you break a sweat or elevate your heart rate, you're probably not going to get the results that you want.*

Watch this funny VIDEO clip of Ellen Degeneres demonstrating the "Hawaii Chair."
