  • Do You Want Your Gym to Have a Bar?


    Are you a health fanatic, but still like to go out for the occasional drink? I enjoy sports, food, and a good glass of wine or a nice beer. I love working up a sweat in the kitchen, on the playing field, and at the gym.

    Even though exercising can be a rewarding private self-motivating experience, I also enjoy the social experience of a bar. I like going out for drinks to hang out with friends, catch up and talk, and I love being around lots of people having a good time. Does that make me partially a social drinker? Perhaps, yes. It never occurred to me that this social element of sharing conversation over drinks could be found at a gym.

    According to the article, "Uplift Studios: Open-Bar Gym Gets You Boozed and Buff" in the Huffington Post, Uplift Studios which is located in Manhattan, is a gym that combines exercise and alcohol with their "Raise the Bar" classes. The gym has programs such as "Cardio and Cocktails" and "Workout and Wine."
