People in Amsterdam who would otherwise go to the gym but just can't because going to the gym would require that they wear clothing can breathe a sigh of relief and can also look to a bright and promising future that includes the luxury of physical fitness because a Dutch gym is adding Sunday morning nudist training sessions.

But really, before fantasies go haywire, it's not going to be a flock of hot young jocks rushing to the gym to work out naked is it?

Let's be honest. It's going to be the same people it always is at these nudist functions. That is newly energised and distastefully frisky, portly middle aged couples who own huge RVs that have discovered the joys of shocking people by declaring their liberation from conventional morality and notions of acceptability and have taken to BBQing in the nude in summer on the side of the road. Because, once your kids have left home and you have retired from the carpet installation business it's really all about lifestyle, not being the center of attention at all.
