What a relief. For a minute we were worried that a disturbing new trend might be in the offing after coming across a lounge chair that doubles as a fitness machine. But luckily, the gold standard of laziness has assuaged our fears--and with the first line of La-Z-Boy luxury spas, no less.

We've seen all manner of media-equipped spas, of course, including one that comes equipped with a 61-inch LCD. And truth be told, La-Z-Boy's "Premier Collection" doesn't appear to offer a whole lot that's new--except for one crucial difference: reclining seats. Yup, you read that right.

Just kick back and watch the game on the retractable TV while the bubbles do their magic, with "14 built-in jet massage patterns that replicate professional masseuse techniques," according to Luxist. We won't ask what distinguishes them as masseuse vs. masseur.
