Are You Ready To Hit The Beach.
According to a new Anytime Fitness poll, 60-percent of women and 46-percent of men aren't ready to slip into a bikini or speedo, primarily because they don't believe their abs should go on display. Women are a little more self-critical and self-conscious, with 30-percent saying it's not just their midsection but their arms, chests, hips, and behinds that also aren't in swimsuit condition, while just 12-percent of the guys feel that way about themselves. But one in five people -- both men and women -- won't be visiting a beach this summer because they don't think their bodies are suitable for a swimsuit.
In addition, swimsuit shopping is a task many men and women would like to avoid. Nearly 20-percent of the guys and 23-percent of women would rather go to the dentist than try on swimsuits. Doing taxes is a preferable task to 21-percent of men and 15-percent of women, and 18-percent of the guys and 14-percent of the women would choose to visit their in-laws over swimsuit shopping.
Forget the swimsuits. Let's go skinny dipping.
