Why don't men do core exercises?
Comments
-
Just had a search for nearby Core exercise classes:
- 3 targetting Mums
- 1 for pregnant women
- 1 targetting "Chicks"
- 1 targetting Women (particularly post menopause)
- 1 with 7 customer reviews all from women
- 1 Pilates for Men course from a site with other mixed classes
It's not a huge amount of choice, but at least there's an option I suppose.

For me, a lot of exercise classes are off-putting because they are essentially women-only. See an interesting class, look on the website\Facebook and there's the encouragement "come on ladies, lets get beach fit!". I might attend a class with a female friend, but for support, but no way would I want to be surrounded by fit women given my shape.0 -
You're alright - I'm an unfit woman who having attended a couple of classes have realised that I currently have neither core nor any balance. You wouldn't be out of place in the same class as me.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0
