Strippers around the world rejoice. Pole dancing is now being touted as the latest new workout that will help you strengthen your core, tone your tummy and, of course, improve your sex life. Long lines are forming for classes in major health clubs across the country. For strippers with sexy bods and extensive pole dancing skills, the fad has become a boon, offering alternative income during the normally slow daytime hours.

In fact, some strippers are forgoing traditional clubs altogether, preferring to work the cozy daytime schedule to packed classes. "You don't get the cash tips, but the income is far more regular and I don't have to worry about some drunk groping me or following me home," says Kitty.

The workout itself tones the entire body, with special exertion required of the arms, back and core muscles that are so important in how we feel and move. In fact, many attentees have reported improvements to their sex lives in addition to the fitness aspect. We don't doubt the sexy appeal of pole dancing for your significant other plays a big part here.
