Introducing iGallop. The next lose-weight gadget Osim came up with.

For those who haven't seen it. It looks like this.

iGallop promises "flat abs, firm buttocks and toned thighs", simply because horse-riding is good for sculpting such bodies and iGallop supposedly mimics the trot of a horse.

At a recent Osim roadshow at Suntec, perhaps about a week ago, Kiat and I caught sight of iGallop's advertisment. To the first glance, it looked like another one of those porn acts. Pardon the direct association, but you really couldn't blame me if you saw it yourself.

The ad: Ladies in cowboy hats, ample buxoms and clothes that revealed a hell lot of flesh were riding iGallop (although it looked like they were happily humping that damn thing and enjoying it).

The roadshow: Kids, aunties and uncles. The occassional young couple.

And oh my, it looked so damn wrong when they were trying it out. Kids riding iGallop looked pretty okay - they were having fun. Then came the uncles who were just allowing their bodies to absorb the motion of iGallop unenthusiastically, and along came the aunties who..well..*grimaces* allow their flabs, humps and bumps to grind along to the "trotting" motion as well. Put uncles and aunties together and iGallop looks like the new sex toy in town where couples facing the middle-age crisis decide on the spot whether they ought to purchase one to spice up their sex lives behind the bedroom doors.

Sigh. Gadgets. I rather you buy the uZap, really. It looks less wrong.

Or just go sign up for some aerobics class!
