Would you workout naked?
Judging by some of the physiques at the local gyms, this may not be a good idea. I can't imagine that seeing someone do squats in the nude would be a good thing....
Dutch gym to introduce 'Naked Sunday'
By TOBY STERLING, Associated Press Writer
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands - Self-conscious about what you wear while working out? A Dutch gym plans to introduce "Naked Sunday" for people who like to huff and puff in the buff.
Patrick de Man, owner of Fitworld gym in the town of Heteren, said he got the idea in part from two of his customers who are avid nudists.
"I heard that some other gyms are offering courses on 'pole-dancing' as a sport, so I thought: Why not bring something new to the market?" de Man said.
He said the response had been overwhelming — positive and negative.
The 70,000-member Dutch Federation of Naturists was curious to see if Fitworld's plan would work, spokesman Bernd Huiser said.
"We recently conducted a large survey among our members, and most prefer to exercise with their clothes on," he said. "The most popular activities (for nudists) are things you do outdoors, like walking on the beach, or swimming in a lake, or maybe gardening."
De Man said the first question Fitworld customers were asking was whether it would be sanitary.
Nude exercisers would be required to put towels down on weight machines and to use disposable seat covers while riding bikes. All machines would be cleaned and disinfected afterward. "We clean them every day anyway," he said.
The first "Naked Sunday" is scheduled for March 4.

Ugh that is disgusting. Who would want to go do incline press after some old naked fat guy with his sweaty balls and hairy ass with klingons had just sat there?

Who are you guys kidding, you wouldn't get a good workout. You'd all be too busy hanging around the vagina machine.

Exactly. I am a home nudist, but no way will I ever work out at a naked gym.

I wouldn't do it... I don't particularly care about seeing people naked (though some I'd love to see naked... depending on the person, naked squats/deads/good mornings/bench press spotter would be awesome!)... but I'd hate to touch any bench or seat after someone's sat there naked. People can't seem to bother bringing towels to the gym, I don't expect people will wipe down after their naked ass any better.

NO I can't see working out naked. Running one the tread mill wouldn't work for us girls at all.

this could be potentially harmful though, clothing does give some level of protection, doing deadlifts would be the worst, I would not want that bar pressing up against my dick

I just hope no one does walking lunges in the parking lot a la Ronnie Coleman.
Imagine being out to buy some bread at the bakery next door one pleasant weekend afternoon only to see THAT.
Oh, and stiff-leg deadlifts will be the worst thing that happened to this concept of naked workouts.
