Bruised and Battered . . .but So Worth It
In my Monday post, I mentioned that part of the exercise I did last week was a Saturday “Girl’s Night Out” at a fitness club called B-Risque. It was a friend’s birthday and she wanted to spend it getting a little naughty and a lot sweaty. So she decided to invite her closest gal pals to a class that teaches the art of striptease, beginner pole dancing, and lap dance . . . .all in the name of exercise.
I must admit that I’ve never had so much fun in the name of good health. Let’s face it, inside of everyone woman is a little bit of a stripper mentality. We all want to learn how to do those deliciously sexy moves that drive the men crazy. Now, with classes like those at B-Risque, we can do that and get fit too.
I had so much fun and it was only days later that I truly realized the extent of my exercise. I was sore, my muscles ached and I found a glaring bruise on my inner right thigh ( got a little to down and dirty with the pole I guess) :). There was one move done while sitting in the chair (imagine the lap of your significant other) where you open and close your legs in a letter “v” fashion. It was killer.
For everyone looking for a way to bring the fun into their workout, I recommend giving a class like this a try. It allows you to indulge your naughty side and get fit at the same time. You may get a little bruised and battered as you learn the technique. . .but it is oh so worth it.
