Safe, comfortable, with the most exciting view of the TV, a couch potato has with a cold drink on the stand next to where he or she is sitting. In the Winter, the house is warm, in the Summer, it is probably nice and cool assuming there is an air conditioner or something. Oh, the life, heaven forbid, trekking outdoors to the dreadful road, trail or even to bike, walk or swim. For the couch potato, the hardest thing to do is to leave to get groceries or do some shopping in addition to going to work.
For the couch potato, the closest thing to weight lifting would be lifting a bottle of soda or beer. Stretching would be to take up the whole length of the couch. Oh, and the closest thing to crunches, would be the sound made while eating a bag of chips. Any rain the couch potato would feel would be the shower taken after a long day of crunches and TV. I guess a sedentary life does have it’s advantages, that is if you consider that the only gains one would get would be that of weight?
