The 'Funkybod' Shirt Offers Abs Without Having to Workout

— October 24, 2013 — Pop Culture
Working hard to gain abs and muscle through exercising and weight training can be a strenuous process, but this Funkybod shirt is here to offer men a shortcut towards showcasing their abs for all to see.

This one-of-a-kind Funkybod shirt offers men a piece of clothing that creatively enhances the muscles they may or may not even have. Coming as a tightly fitted undershirt that men are able to wear snuggly underneath their ordinary shirts or sweaters, this Funkybod creation allows those who despise hitting the gym an opportunity to showcase a firm body without having to do the work. A unique way for men to accentuate their chest areas whenever they feel the need, these Funkybod undershirts will surely entice men to give it a try.
