High Heel Workouts Spreading

Women are getting a new workout while wearing high-heeled shoes.

The Wall Street Journal reports that “heel hop” and “stiletto fitness” classes have popped up in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and Kansas City and are expected to show up across the country.

Devotees say the gam-intensive workout strengthens lower leg muscles.

One woman attending the glasses said, “You realize the weak points of the body and how fragile the ankles are, and you’re strengthening that.”

The classes make participants do exercises like sit-ups, dancing, and intensive walking — all while wearing high heels.
