Because I couldn’t find a picture of Romy and Michelle in spin class

White chicks love working up a sweat. And the endorphins that come with it are even better. But even more than the exercise itself, white chicks love Talking About Working Out. And that probably should have been the title of this post.

Do not be surprised if a white chick of any shape, size, stature, or stamina approaches you with this topic. Talking About Working Out is an equal opportunity white chick activity. See, white chicks are obsessed with working out, whether they regularly engage in physical activity or not. So even if they’re not actually exercising, they’re at least running their mouths.

You may hear one white chick bragging about how sore she is from her last trip to the gym, while another gushes about how beautiful that jog through the canyon was. While some may be calculating the calories they’ve burned that day, there are others complaining about how long it’s been since they’ve last hit the elliptical. Chances are, a white chick is either waiting for you to bring up working out, or else plotting how to strategically work it into the conversation. You might be talking about youtube, and she’ll mention her favorite work out related music videos. Top selections are Kanye’s New Work Out Plan, Madonna’s Hung Up, and the tush-revealing work out classic, Eric Prydz’s Call On Me, pictured above.

The only fail-proof response to any white chick’s remarks about anything fitness-related is to express your own desire to work out more or maybe try yogalates.

Also, it’s been at least 4 months since I’ve seen the inside of a gym.
