flabby

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in need of exercise?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'fine times pursuing dog' is the wordplay.
'fine' becomes 'f' (abbreviation in pencil classifications).
'times' becomes 'by' (both can mean 'multiplied by').
'pursuing' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'dog' becomes 'lab' (short for labrador).
'by' after 'lab' is 'labby'.
'f'+'labby'='FLABBY'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for flabby that I've seen before include "Having soft, loose flesh" , "Soft, loose and fleshy (of a body)" , "Fat and limp, not firm" , "Saggy" , "Ineffectual" .)
