A national chain of fitness clubs estimates that 32% of its 50,000 members are obsessed with carrying and using their cell phones while working out.
Management likens the addiction to that of millennials who say the word ‘like’ so often it makes normal folks want to retch.
Good news is on the horizon.
A patch…similar to the one smokers use to break the smoking addiction..is about to be approved for sale in retail outlets.
For the cell phone addicts, the patch is placed on the back of the hand and has been 100% effective in presale testing.
For the ‘like’ addiction, the patch is placed over the upper lip extending to cover the lower lip. It’s been proven to be 74% effective due to the fact that some are so addicted that they improvise with the patch and soon become ‘like’ ventriloquists who don’t need lip movements to speak.
*** Dorothy Maierhofer has set the club record for using her cell phone after every set of exercises for an hour and fifteen minutes. The club plans to award her with weekly sessions with Dr. Phil for one year.
