If you are anything like us, you have had at least one wine-fueled conversation with your girlfriends about your love-hate relationship with skinny jeans. Let's be honest—not everyone can pull off the skin-tight, tapered-leg look. That being said, the skinny trend doesn't seem to be going anywhere soon, so if you can't beat them, join them, right? We were delighted to hear about a workout designed specifically to combat the bumps and bulges that make wearing skinny jeans a frightening proposition for some.

The Skinny Jeans Workout™ at Equinox is a one-hour sculpting session focusing on core muscles, balance, and posture, so you can wear your favorite denim with confidence. Molly Fox, the creator of the Skinny Jeans Workout™, fused tried-and-true '80s exercises with modern moves that feature light weightlifting, ballet, and Pilates.

If your style is more little black dress than body-hugging denim, there's a workout for you, too. Equinox also offers the Major Black Dress workout, which is a one-hour body-shaping class that includes cardio, alignment training, and targeted toning. What could be better than feeling fiercer than ever in your favorite LBD?

Though both the Major Black Dress and Skinny Jeans Workout™ focus on building strength and cardio endurance, the Skinny Jeans Workout™ also emphasizes flexibility. Pair them together and you'll be well on your way to looking and feeling fabulous no matter what you're wearing.

Equinox is located at 6124 Berkshire Lane. For more information, call 214.346.0540 or visit equinox.com.
