The Daily News counsels against letting things get in the way of your daily workout. The Economist, however, suggests that working out at the gym can be an utterly pointless exercise that does more harm than good, sometimes even resulting in muscle dysmorpha ("bigorexia") or permanent injuries from having been yoga-ed into damaging positions. At the end of the day, we have to ask ourselves who's smarterThe NY Daily News or The Economist. We will concede, however, that if you must work out obsessively, New York has some of the most interesting forms of exertainment availablefrom Sunday morning gospel choir exercises to striptease aerobics to firefighter workouts.
