Crunch Gym - Under the Gymfluence Party 2008

On Monday, October 20th, Crunch transformed its Lafayette Street location from a sprawling, three-story gym into a sprawling, three-story nightclub one that would play host to their Under the Gymfluence party, a sexy celebration of entertainment and fitness.

As guests made their way inside they got an immediate dose of glamour, having their pictures snapped while walking Crunchs purple carpet. From there, they passed a bevy of alluring young women strutting their stuff stripper-style on poles set up by the clubs large windows (a thrill for both invitees and passers-by on the street). After that it was a short walk into Lafayettes spacious interior, which, while full of gym equipment, also boasted two large bars staffed by employees of Skimkim Catering and stocked with luscious libations from p.i.n.k. vodka and Lucid absinthe. Smoothie shots abounded, trays of Crunch branded condoms were circulated and the party was underway.

As the evening unfolded, Treasure Fingers pumped the freshest of beats while the those in attendance as diverse a group as you can imagine came together on the dance floor and this seductively surreal environment really started to cook: Scantily clad men and women slinked around showing off equipment, performers from Spiegelworld wowed the crowds with their mesmerizing antics, black lit cyclists spun up a storm, bathing capped practitioners of Pilates stretched in unison and other such exciting surprises that had been lurking around each of the gyms many corners were revealed.

Had there ever been any doubt that a heath club could play host to a great party, that doubt was squashed by a crowd of approximately eight-hundred revelers who ate, drank and made merry under the gymfluence.

I've been to a lot of parties but this was the first one I've been to in a gym. I know I had a good time because I woke up the next morning with a 20 lbs. barbell in my bed and a massive hangover. Can't wait until the next one.
