Flirty Girl Fitness is about learning how to be sexy while maintaining a top- notch physique. Everyone usually asks Flirty Girl Fitness participants why they get involved with the program and it was Jennifer who said that it got her “in touch with the fun-loving, exotic woman within”. Tracy said it was because “ it really sculpts your abs into something sexy”. When I get asked this—and it happens quite often because I am an instructor--I usually respond with a combination of the two. But really any reason is acceptable for my students to have. As long as they’ve got a reason for being in my class, I say “Hey! That’s great, you’re welcome to be in my class.”
Every time that Richard Simmon’s puts out a new Sweating to the Oldies tape I am glad because I will get the chance to exercise to it, and I am upset because all of my students will start showing up to my classes with a jew fro, an ill-fitting jersey, and an unusually peppy attitude towards the workout. I admire Simmon’s work, its simple and effective, with lots of great dance moves, songs to dance to, and an elegance to it, like an 8th grade mixer. It takes me back to my days working out back in the seventies— back when I’d be sweating to “Great Balls of Fire” and other classics (instead being stuck with Rihanna’s “Rude Boy”). But this just doesn’t come out as being sexy when my students try to imitate it. Yes, yes, it’s great when Richard Simmons does it but not when anyone else does it.
Flirty Girl Fitness should never be done on Thanksgiving. You just can’t feel sexy after a Thanksgiving dinner. Your food baby (an almost inevitable consequence of a Thanksgiving dinner) is going to be larger than a bloated Eggo waffle. There’s no way you’re going to be exercising on the pole that day. Give it up. Ignore that guilt trippingly stern inner drill sergeant telling you that you have to work out. Trust me, why set your work out up for failure when you could just do it another day?
