Well, to begin with, Ted’s not too good a shot.

Ted just might need glasses. Or move his chair a couple feet closer. Or, what the heck, just throw the ball at the target.

So far, he has sweated out three calories and has gently annoyed his metabolism!

That’s what you get for peeking.

The wrist is essential for fitness.

Where is Gertrude, who retrieves the darts for Ted?

He gets winded, darting about like that.

I’ll have you know those are lead darts that weigh over 2 lb. each. The only problem is that Ted is developing a gigantic right forearm; kind of like what happened to Rod Laver (although he was left handed) and Martina Navratilova.

What amazes me, is that Ted hasn’t figured out how to attach strings to his darts, so he won’t have to get out of his chair to retrieve them.

Where’s the Mini-Bar?

Very impressive, however, the real exercising occurs because the bathroom is three rooms away…

BTW, I just noticed that all of the 2019 comics have the “9” penned in… ☺

Does Ted have a personal trainer to retrieve the darts?

Looks a lot like Ted’s man cave, but without the big screen.

Passive aggressive training.

Wait a minute – that’s MY exercise room!!!

Ted obviously does low impact aerobics.

There should never be a comfy chair in an exercise room.
