Getting physically fit has never been this weird. Let’s talk about that. ♪ (theme music) ♪ – Gooooooooooooooood Mythical Morning! – I got my cappuccino today! – Aw, c’mon, quit bragging. – You coulda had one, we got a machine! – I got water. – Brand new machine! Thanks for making us a part of your daily routine. If we’ve proven anything on this show, it’s that we care about fitness! Have we proven that? I don’t know if we have proven that. – Well, we’ve made a lot of efforts. – We have performed at least as well – as an average fifth grader… – Yep! in physical fitness challenges, and we’ve also invented two patents-pending workout series: 2 Guys 2 Weights and 2 Guys Gain Weight. Not really pending, and we haven’t even started the process, so pending in that sense. The last one’s not really fitness related. And some of these may not be either. – I have not seen any of these. – Okay, I have. Rhett told me not to see them before you saw them, so I’m just along for the ride – and I don’t even know why I’m talking. – Yeah. So, there’s been a lot of weird worlds that have been explored when it comes to fitness. And the great news about it is that it’s usually on video. Usually, it’s promoted via video and we’re going to look at some of the weirdest workout routines that have ever been – promoted. – Okay. Now, I have the clips here and – you’ve told me what to play when. – Yeah, yeah. So you just say “Fire Away!” and I’ll play away. Let’s start with one you may have seen before– Prancercising! – You want me to play it now? – Oh yeah! – Just go for it? – Go for it now. I remember this one. – No preamble. – I said “Prancercising.” – That’s all you need to know. – Okay. Hello, I’m Joanna Rohrback of Prancercise, LLC. I’m here today to show you the four – modes of Prancercise. – Got an LLC. – I’ve got my ankle weights in place. – Ankle weights. My music’s ready. Let’s stop talking and do some walking. – You gotta here this music, Link. – ♪ (electric guitar) ♪ – It’s like royalty-free AC/DC. – Wow. – (laughs) – Look at that! She’s just prancing! – Is she in slow motion? – No, that’s full speed, brother! I have heard of this but I had never saw it. I was too afraid. We’re gonna really cut the noose and let it loose with the Prancercise Gallop. – ♪ (upbeat music) ♪ – Look at this woman. – This woman is amazing! – No, this is… What if you saw this woman in the park? Wouldn’t you join her? – This woman is a hoax. Please tell me… – This is not a hoax! – No, this is Joanne Rohrback, Link! – Now we’re gonna take our ankle weights – and put ’em on our wrists! – She came to a landing. Then I can show you the Prancercise Box, or Shadowbox Prance. – Things are gettin’ wild. – It’s so windy! – Better to be punching into space… – Uh oh. – than in your face! – ♪ (rock music) ♪ – Link, it can’t be fake. It’s an LLC! – Yeah, you’re right. – She has an LLC! – Oh, wow. – She went through the trouble. – She’s really movin’! I’d like to spend some time with this woman. She’s in the same place she was a second ago. I’ll just point that out. Don’t you wanna spend some time with this woman? I’m not gonna admit to it publicly, but yes. – (laughs) But I think you just did. – (laughs) I mean, think about it, man! She’s prancing, she’s exercising, – she’s Prancercising… LLC! – All right, I’m just gonna tell you that I think this goes to show you that any woman who’s willing to prance is… – She’s on my team. – Well, lemme tell you what Johanna said about this. She said, “I encourage anyone who is ready for a huge change in their lives and the way they see the world and the way they see themselves to explore the principles inherent in this program, especially as outlined in my book, Prancercise: The Art of Physical and Spiritual Excellence. – (dramatically) She wrote a book? – She wrote a freaking book! – And it’s not just prancing… – Her LLC wrote a book? – it’s spiritual, Link! – Oh, no, I could tell it was spiritual! – (laughs) – I had a spiritual experience watching – her go through the park! – Okay, you don’t have to tell me, brother! It gets better. Let’s move along. This is Zuiikin’ English from Japanese television. Starts with a little skit. Maybe your abdomen. – (speaking Japanese) – That is a bad stomachache, man! (Rhett) What? (Link) What? You just wait until we start exercising. ♪ (electronic drumbeat) ♪ – What? – Get ready, c’mon. (Rhett chanting along with video) I have a bad case of diarrhea! I have a bad case of diarrhea! I have a bad case of diarrhea! – Hold on. I just paused that, because… – I have a bad case of diarrhea! – Can you… I don’t know… who I am. – (laughs) I don’t know where I am. Give me some context. I’m gonna keep playing this. This is Zuiikin’ English! This is a language lesson and an exercise routine all in one! Why take one lesson when you can get two? – But why are they just chanting… – I have a bad case of diarrhea! – Why are they chanting that? – How many times do you have to say it? You should say it as many times as it takes to get the person to realize that you need to be taken to the right facility. Well, with those leotards on, you’re in for a big rude awakening! – (laughs) – Lemme keep playing it. Okay, please. Do that. – Yeah. – And you’re happy about it! Yep. Yep, Hm. I don’t know what “P-Low: The Skillful Abbot” is. So you kinda get the idea here. They have a bad case of diarrhea. (laughs) What?! – Sometimes I don’t understand… – Other cultures. Japanese things. But I appreciate them with a passion. I appreciate them with a passion. But how about this. Let’s bring it back to this side of the pond. I just can’t believe you’re moving forward. I feel like you have to go on without me. There’s nothing else to say! Okay, I don’t wanna ruin it for you, but it has been acknowledged that the producers of that television show know that it’s funny. It’s not completely – unintentional. – Okay. But I want you to think that it was completely unintentional because it seems even funnier that way. They know that that’s funny. They know that – people are gonna laugh at that. – You know when you’ve been given news – so good… – I have a bad case of diarrhea! Listen. Do you know how, when you’ve been given news so good that you feel bad? Like, your body starts to react negatively? – Yeah. – That happened to me. Next one. Exercise through breathing with BodyFlex! This is from the infomercial queen, – Greer Childers. – Greer? That’s her real name? – Childers. – Childers. BodyFlex breathing. For the next little while, it’s gonna be you and me together, alone. – Uh oh. – We’re gonna start with the breathing – technique. And it starts like this. – I’m not complaining. Feet go about shoulder length apart. And I want you to bend down or pretend like you’re sitting down in an invisible chair. – I’m sitting in a real chair. – I’m whatever you say. – (Greer and Rhett exhale loudly) – Her legs are a weird color. – (inhales loudly) – Those are hose. The exhale is gonna be a diaphramic exhalation. – The whole workout is breathing, Link. – And it’s going to sound a little bit like this. Lips together… Pahhhhhhhhhhhhh! Whoa! Do that. (both) Pahhhhhhhhhh! (coughs) … breathe in big through our nose… – You just… you just hacked up a lung. – I wasn’t ready for that. I didn’t do all – the pre-breathing. – Let’s try it. (whispers) Oh, she’s gonna try something else, she said. She’s so intense. (exhales) (inhales loudly) Hahhhhhhhhhhh! Pretty different, isn’t it? – This could change everything for us. – Pretty different, isn’t it? Yeah. This woman could change everything. We could get them together, the Prancercise and the woman. Could you imagine Prancercising with the… – pahhhhhhhhhh at the same time? – And you know what? The we can give ’em – both a bad case of diarrhea! – (both laugh) I hate to disappoint you. This was all about… this was only about your facial muscles and breathing. It was to keep your double chin at bay. – Oh! – And they were charged with false – advertising by the FTC. – At what point am I disappointed? Because… I’m pretty satisfied with that… that whole back story. Okay. All right, Link, I’ve got more where that comes from. If I said I was attracted to that woman… how would everyone feel about me right now? You basically already said that, when she said, “It’s me and you alone together,” – and you were like, “Okay!” – But you were like, “Yeah!” – (laughs) – At the same time! – I don’t… I can’t explain it. – Something about a woman in a leotard – with that much hair, man… – All right, Link, I want you to go… – Hair that don’t quit! – I want you to go all the way to – chair dancing, okay? – Woo! – This is a series of DVDs… – We’re going all the way? – All the way to chair dancing. – (laughs) Okay. All the way. – ♪ (generic dance music) ♪ – (female voice) Welcome to Chair Dancing Through the Decades. I’m Jodi Stolove.
