    In the stripperobics class I take, a lot of the girls wear heels but we aren't lifting weights, it's mainly cardio.

    It is bad enough when gals come to the gym looking like they just got a make-over and are wearing high fashion workout clothes, but this looks like some serious searching for her (shallow) significant-other.

    When I saw this picture the Sir Mix A Lot song - Baby Got Back (I Like Big Butts) - popped in my head and it won't leave me alone. Sorry if you have this tune in your head now too. I hate suffering alone.

    I do pole/exotic dance fitness classes and wear heels during them. It is definitely a work out but not the dramarama these comments lead it to be. If you're going to be squatting and inverting and popping it in heels though do yourself a favor and invest in legit stripper shoes. Even though you're up higher they are a million times for comfortable and easy to dance in.

    ETA: though we would never lift weights haha.

    No way...it looks uncomfortable...maybe bordering on painful!

    Wearing heels for pole is a little different to wearing them at the gym, though.....

    Right but I've seen plenty of strictly stiletto/stiletto fitness/etc classes at regular dance studios and gyms that include what's considered regular strength training exercises incorporated into the dance.

    That sounds just stupid. Yes, let's put on stilettos, a shoe that is not good for foot development etc, and exercise in it. Brilliant.

    I can't get my eyes off that *kitten*!! It's like a car accident. Fascinating, but wrong to stare...

    Same here. She looks toned, but come on... that's just too big. Don't you think??????

    Also there are people who speed recklessly, drive motorcycles without helmets, put kids in the back of a pick up truck, drink and drive, shoot heroin into their veins . . . . . stupid is as stupid does.

    And there's always more stupid willing to join up.

    If Coco jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge, would you?

    Can't say I'd follow her lead on . . . . anything.
