Naked Gymming Is Now A Thing. Umm, Because Gym Clothes On Is Obviously Too Mainstream!

The first week of January is generally the time when most of us resolve to be fit and healthy. Add the celebrities whose workouts motivate us and we’re all pumped about being fit. We promise themselves they’ll go on a strict diet and we’ll workout regularly. Most gymnasiums see a spike in the number of people who buy gym memberships in January. Unfortunately, most of our resolutions go down the drain in the first week itself.

But what if I tell you that I have just the right news for you to stick to your fitness resolution this year? A New York fitness chain is offering naked gym classes to people and OMG what?!

That’s right, the Hanson Fitness gym, which is a popular fitness chain in the USA, is offering naked workout classes thrice a week – one for men, one for women and one mixed class. Celebrities like Sandra Bullocks, Tyra Banks and Rihanna also go to this gym.

According to the gym chain’s Facebook post,

“Working out without clothes provides a number of benefits to your exercise including skin breathing, the release of endorphins due to Vitamin D from sunlight and complete body awareness so you can see if you’re cheating on your exercise routines.

The class is designed to be a total body workout that uses your body weight as resistant to work the glute, butt, legs and core – making you look and feel good naked.”

 

As per an article in Business Insider, Harry Hanson, the founder of the gym, conceived of this novel idea when one of the gym members asked him to introduce new ways to get fit. He said,

“As a forward-thinking fitness centre, we like to make sure we offer our members the very latest in fitness developments. Our approach makes sure our members get and stay in the absolute best shape, and our new naked personal fitness sessions are no exception. This new development brings with it a range of fitness and health benefits and allows our members to have a little cheeky fun in the process.”

For people who are self-conscious, the gym provides a nude underwear for the course of the workout.

I don’t know about you, but after all the food I’ve eaten during the holidays and the amount I’ve spent on account of holiday sale has really left me fat and broke. So before this trend sets foot in India, I might as well keep up to my resolutions and get in shape JUST so I could maybe give this unique workout a shot. Now isn’t this a good motivation for your fitness goals?
