This past weekend I defied the odds and went to the gym.
Please, please, hold your applause.
While huffing and puffing away on the cross trainer, Beyoncé’s “Girls” came on, and it made me up my speed and even put on a game face. There may have been some slight hip wiggles going on. I was impressed with myself, perhaps even a little bit smug. There’s just something about the question “Who run this mutha?” that really gets the adrenaline going.
But whatever pride I felt quickly vanished when I saw the following video of a woman doing a full-blown dance routine on the treadmill. No, I’m not talking about OK Go style dancing - that is mere child’s play compared to this lady’s moves.
She full on breaks it down. I believe there is even a moment where she drops it like it’s hot.
I need to know what is on her playlist.
I also have many, many questions. Firstly, how is she not falling off? How did she first learn she could accomplish such sweet moves on a treadmill? Is there a class or a secret underground dance movement - perhaps a breakaway sector of Zumba? Also, what speed is it set to and can she teach me?!
We need to know your secrets, lady. However I assume it’s only a matter of time until you’re on Ellen, so I’ll just wait until then.
