Study Finds Americans Get The Most Exercise While Drunk (VIDEO)


First Posted: 10/06/10 10:45 AM ET Updated: 05/25/11 06:55 PM ET

A recent study has proven that times of intoxication are when Americans do the most aerobic activities, the Onion News Network reports.

From over-enthusiastic dancing, participating in competitive keg stands, or "chasing crying girlfriends down the street," Americans are getting the bulk of their physical activity after consuming copious amounts of alcohol.

"Drinking to excess is now one of the healthiest activities Americans regularly do," Dr. Will Garvin explained.

But you don't have to be drunk to benefit from the physical exercise that comes from being drunk. There are a few drunken activities one can do while sober. For instance:

"Try to spend at least one night a week climbing your local water tower or throwing glass mugs against the wall," Dr. Garvin suggested.

Excellent! I am going to have to agree with the other posters on this thread that this is probably a legitimate idea for research.

This SHOULD NOT be on the Onion because I'm sure this is actually true. It's called Sh*t-faced aerobics.
