There is a man who is almost always in my Zumba class. I think he honestly enjoys the workout - its a great cardio workout. I don't think he's gay or there to pick up women or watch us shake our booties.

Why do you have to play it off as anything? If you want to join the class, join the class and enjoy the workout.

He just wants to find a place he feels comfortable at.







So he can wear his mantard

If you enjoyed the class you should go back and keep going. If any of the women have a problem with it, its their problem, not yours.

Yup same here, if they want that sort of class go to Curves

WTF? I figure the brunette would have done a better job of organizing the blondes.

My reality and yours are quite different.

At my gym, a lot of guys go to the spinning classes, but not to the aerobic type classes.
I don't understand why. Ego, whatever.
Break the mold. Go to the classes. Have fun.

Many guys do the spinning classes because they bike
on the weekend, but need to train during the week after work.

I have done the aerobic classes. I quit because of the choreography.
After a while, it seemed like going to a bar and doing line dancing.

I regularly do the yoga classes because I need the
flexibility and the workout is harder than weight lifting for me.

Nobody in the classes seems to be doing it for social reasons.
Any after-class conversation involve improving on the goals of the classes.

That said, years ago, an older guy told me, "If the grandmas like you, they will put in a good word for
you with the younger women." Instant acceptance. Works in any venue.

I like the sound of that.

I have also been considering doing the yoga classes. I have no flexibility. It would be nice to change that to prevent injury.

do yoga and pilates both emphasize stretching equally or does one emphasize it more?

It depends on the types of Yoga or Pilates, there are different style.

Why not Try Yogalaties (i shit you not, it's real)

I totally pussed out today. I was gonna go to the kickboxing class but the group started to build outside the studio and it was ALL women. I got freaked and skipped. In the end it was like 20:1 women to men. By which I mean there were 20 women and 1 man.

I decided I'm going to suck it up and go to it next weekend. (mainly cause there were 2 hot chicks, one my age and one in like her late 20's (bet she'd be a good ride))

Oh and my gym doesn't have yogalaties but I'll look into what types each of them are. Thanks for that bit of info.
