Saigon Street Aerobics

The Astronomer and I are often asked how we are able to eat so much and keep so trim. Our answer? Street aerobics.

    OMG. So hilarious. And yes, I was going to ask if she was eating while exercising. I can’t stop chuckling. :D You’re brave woman. I would not let the internets see me hopping around in public.

    That’s brilliant! And good on you for taking part!

    I saw a bit of this in Chiang Mai…but on a much smaller scale.

    Hahaha! I think you had the highest energy level of the whole group. Nice one.

    HAHAHAHAHA. I saw a bunch of people doing interesting exercise moves at a park near Cho Ben Thanh, but I didn’t dare to record them. This is hilarious! I don’t blame her for eating while exercising–there’s food everywhere! :)

    Wonderful! I’ll make sure to pack my leopard-skin aerobic tights with my trip in August because I want to be ready for any street aerobic. Got to look good for you-tube !

    CAM ON. I’m glad you guys dug it because had a blast exercising with a big ‘ol group. Let’s bring street aerobics to America! And definitely don’t forget to pack your spandex.

    Love it! Such a funny post =) yeah, we totally needed to have done this in Saigon, but was a bit hesitant with all the motorbike fumes….

    It’s kind of sick, but I’m so used to the fumes that I don’t even notice them anymore :-(. I hope I’m not doing any permanent damage…
