Today's athletic wear incorporates technological innovation into its very threads, a feat visible in styles that force legs to jog and promise to tickle their wearers until they've reached their maximum heart rates. Let garments do the heavy work with today's Groupon: for $30, you get a pair of weight-loss hot pants from Zaggora (a $72.50 value). Shipping is £9 (GBP) to Canada (based on daily conversion rates, approximately $14.15).

Zaggora's hip-hugging Hotpants slim bodies by up to two jeans sizes in two weeks using a comfortable bioceramic material that emits infrared rays to help women naturally and efficiently amp up weight-loss regimens. The shorts' Celu-Lite technology smoothes thighs and other dimple-prone areas by galvanizing the skin's internal zamboni to promote a deep warming of body tissues and promote lymphatic drainage. This process boosts sweating by up to 80 per cent and aids in eliminating the toxins responsible for cellulite. Ladies can sport Hotpants alone or under other clothing while awake and active, asleep in bed, or while executing a series of high kicks when sleepwalking.
