2 birds with 1 stone? I will use 7 or 8 stones just to make sure. I want those birds dead, dead, dead.

Fat guy, bicycles

I am not a math genius, exactly. And professionally speaking, I am not really a physicsologist either. Math and physics are both kind of hobbies for me. Like spelling, botany, fencing, blogifying and ice sculpting to name a few of my other hobbies. I do too ice sculpt, I make tiny statues out of ice cubes and they melt before people get to see them, but they are for real, and quiet exquisite.

Anyways, it occurred to me the other day that riding a bike might be good for loosing a couple extra pounds of tubbiness as this is The Year of the Statue. In fact, it occurred to me that it would be extra good right now, as I am heavier, therefore making it more difficult to ride a bike, which makes riding a bike a better work out. Which is weird because the more I ride a bike, the more fat I loose, which means I become lighter, which in turn makes riding a bike less of a good work out.

Not only is riding a bike more difficult if you are heavy, it is also more fun. For instance, a tubby dude and a skinny dude each ride a bicycle to the top of a hill. Both have to work, which means neither had a great time. However, the tubby guy has a bigger sense of accomplishment because he has a fatter ass, yet made it to the top of the same hill. So he worked harder, and got more of a workout. Then, as the two head down the hill, the chuck is gonna go infinitely faster because he is heavier, while the skinny guy isn't going to go as fast, which means the tubby guy is gonna have more fun. Infinitely you say? Yes, if it is an infinitely long hill, then the tubby guy will go infinitely faster than the skinny guy. Infinities are weird, I will save explaining them for another blog post.

So, all this math and physicsing goes to show that riding a bike will be good for me until I shed a couple unwanted pounds of baby fat. After that I am going to have to eat a lot of donuts and ice cream to continue getting the same work out. I am suddenly more excited about working out then ever!
