You'll be so very glad that you did, you know!
A great way to get yourself in shape and in shape stay
at the cost of just a few paltry pennies per day.*
Get in shape now! You'll be so very glad you did.

Now jump on that BAPcycle built for two and show what you can do! Stay fit and well above all else, especially you oldies. Take care. Don't become hobble-along Cassidys.
Amaze me Daisy,
Give me your answer do!
I'm half crazy
All for the love of you!
But you no longer are the girl I fell for,
Not as trim and slim as before,
So take a seat, you'll look so sweet
On a bapcycle built for two.
Mays won't cut it
Nor, for sure, will
maybes.
Trimming a bit
Will do it in a breeze,
Take just a bit or snip off at the waist,
Altering your chest, a crime and a waste.
Recycle your shape by cycling
Along on a bapcycle built for two.

As you muscle your way along, arms pushing and pulling back and forth, you could chant the Volga boatmen song to establish your cadence. "Yo oh, push pull, Yo oh push pull!"
A depiction of Volga boatmen. The chant "Yo, Heave Ho" is based on this.
Yo! A Russian Version!
English Translation
Yo, heave ho!
Yo, heave ho!
Once more, once again, still once more
Yo, heave ho!
Yo, heave ho!
Once more, once again, still once more
Now we fell the stout birch tree,
Now we pull hard: one, two, three.
Ay-da, da, ay-da!
Ay-da, da, ay-da!
Now we fell the stout birch tree
As the barges float along,
To the sun we sing our song.
Ay-da, da, ay-da!
Ay-da, da, ay-da!
To the sun we sing our song.
Hey, hey, let's heave a-long the way
to the sun we sing our song
Yo, heave ho!

Volga, Volga our pride,
Mighty stream so deep and wide.
Ay-da, da, ay-da!
Ay-da, da, ay-da!
Volga, Volga you're our pride.
Yo, heave ho!
Yo, heave ho
Once more, once again, still once more
Yo, heave ho!

Chant it to this example as you work out on the MPC (Muscle-Power Cycle). Sing out the letters (H, S, H, P, E, etc.) and then the rest of the chant. Alternatively, a leader sings out the letters and the group shouts out the chant.
