A three-panel comic. Panel 1: a bearded man prays with hands pressed together, eyes closed, saying "Dear Lord, how do I get fit?" Panel 2: a glowing television shows a divine reply in yellow text: "My son... pushups are an excellent full body-" as the man watches. Panel 3: the same man resumes praying, now asking "Dear Satan, how do I get fit?" The joke: when God's advice requires actual effort (pushups), he immediately turns to Satan instead. Votey (aftercomic): a sketchy close-up of the man praying, adding "I'll do anything easy" - clarifying he wants a shortcut, not work.
