ANOTHER YEAR WITHOUT A DECENT MUSCLE SHIRT!

I've always wanted a set of muscles like the ones on the Doc Savage covers. That and a whole closet of torn t-shirts. The problem is that working out is boring, or at least it seems that way to someone who doesn't do it. There must be another way... And this is it! It's a little elaborate, maybe a tad expensive, but this guy is on the right track I think. A suggestion: loose the padded pants. They detract from the realism. That top combined with natural, skinny legs would be a killer combination!

Every year I hope the Halloween costume industry will put out a good set of fake muscles but they never do. Look at the tacky shirt this kid (above) is wearing. The muscles look like curdled milk. Oh well, maybe next year.

    "Dawg the Bounty Hunter" is a great costume to wear this year.

  2. HA HA HA!

    That would be awkward if it got deflated!
    "Hello Miss, my name is Eddie!" As you ease in closer to her side her elbow pricks your fake muscle suit and wheeeeeze your security blanket is limp and lifeless on the floor. Dang it.

  4. Any time I get the urge to exercise, I just lay down until it goes away.

    Not only that, the pectoral muscles are too small and the abs are too big (they extend half way up the rib cage for krissakes). Plus it would help if it matched the kid's skin tone as well.

  15. I suggest getting large enough to have lipo-suction, just where the division of muscles should be. Then you can have perfect looking muscle definition, and still be cuddly.
