Lotte Werk
Earlier this week, Beth was having some workout-related motivational issues, so I agreed to do one of her DVDs with her. As you can imagine, she practically ran to put the DVD in and was itching to get started. That should have been my first sign that trouble was afoot.
We did this "Lotte Berk" method something-or-other. Basically, it's these 3 women in tights, 2 of whom are, oh, 20 years old while the lead instructor is a 45-year-old Sarah Jessica Parker look-alike. The whole workout is geared towards "strengthening, then stretching." It's clear from pretty much the first moment that this is entirely geared towards women. No Men Allowed. They do some crazy-ass stretches that pretty much involve some very vulnerable and compromising positions, like on my back, with my legs spread apart as wide as possible. A number of the exercises involve gyrating your hips, or air-humping or squatting with your legs spread wide open. Honestly, just about every exercise involves the most un-masculine pose you can imagine.
If I keep it up, I may end up with a real tight ass and some killer abs. Let me hear your body talk!
