Every year the magazines report on the latest fitness crazes that are sweeping the nation. From the weird and wonderful, to the daft and sometimes dangerous, people will try anything to shift those extra pounds – and more often than not, they’ll hate every second!
The next step in selling magazines and products is to come up with a “fun new way” of getting your ass in gear and making it smaller. How often does that actually happen? How many different ways can there really be of making someone bounce around enough to work up a sweat and get the heart rate going long enough so that 1) they burn fat, 2) they keep it going long term to achieve something but don’t pass out!? Not very often.
However, a new class is tentatively appearing in gyms and dance studios, and bolstered by the recent Girls Aloud tour – pole dancing.
No longer just an activity for questionable clubs and sleazy old men, women up and down the UK are getting their shorts and t-shirts out (not a string bikini in sight!), and having a go - to get fit! And enjoying themselves too!
Great aerobic exercise, and excellent for toning and stretching the muscles – try it and see!
