    From what I can see, the "high heel" workout is a modeling/exercise class to teach you how to walk in heels. You don't do the exercise part in heels. http://www.thatsfit.com/2009/05/06/high-heel-workout/

    These look really stable, so they're cool, right?

    I'm so tired of this judgmental crap on MFP. BE SUPPORTIVE.

    If a woman wants to wear sexy footwear while she works out, how bout you not **** block a guy with a shoe fetish?

    Good pics in this thread.

    I think I've reached a point in my life where I realize high heels are ridiculous inventions. I certainly can't imagine anyone working out in them.

    Hey! They make my butt look fanTAStic! Don't judge.

    I figured that was common sense, considering it's dangerous to even walk in high heels.

    lol who the hell works out in high heels?

    Virginia.

    ^ This made me lol (and flash back to the late 90s)

    I admit that I squat in heels... but ONLY when I'm at a bar, I have to pee, and the toilet seats are gross.

    All I can imagine is a chick with 100+ lbs on the bar at the bottom of the squat and her rolling her ankle inward. BOOM PAIN! Oh god my palms are sweating just thinking about it.

    My Rogue shoes have a 3/4" heel :tongue:

    I was wondering when this would come up. Guess there aren't many olympic lifters here. Just for fun tried squats in my cowboy boots (unweighted) and you really can get so much lower.

    Sad that we need a PSA about this. As Dr House would say "Darwin says let him die."
