The ABC's of Couple's Fitness: Basic Moves

Ladies and gentlemen, start your fitness engines. For couples who require more instruction on staying fit than what's found in the Kama Sutra, Razor Digital's The ABC's of Couple's Fitness is designed with lovers in mind. Sporting no nudity, but plenty of incredibly buff twentysomethings, the program presents 12 drills that will shape and tone the abs, tush, and chest, with names such as “Love Taps,” “Kiss Ups,” “Tush Lifter,” “The Passion Stretch,” “Tush Push,” and the “Tandem Bicycle” (no bike necessary). Forget floor mats and dumbbells, the accessories needed here are massage oil and candles, as partners work their stuff in the great outdoors and behind bedroom doors. Although these sensual exercises looked fun, the sexy models looked almost stoic (I've seen happier faces on Richard Simmons' Sweatin' to the Oldies). DVD extras include a mini-workout entitled “Advanced Motions,” which includes many of the same drills mastered in the main program. For consenting adults who want to add a little spice to their buns of steel (or sweet rolls!), this is recommended.
