Gotham Gym, tucked in the intimate West Village at 600 Washington Street, offers extensive access to the Hudson Waterfront. It retains the Village feel while providing an abundance of wellness resources in a smart-looking industrial space.  I have been noticing Gotham Gym because models Sara Sampaio, Hilary Rhoda, Shanina Shaik, and Serafima Kobzeva have been sharing pictures of their workouts there on Instagram. They’re all in such incredible shape – it makes me want to pop in there immediately to sign up on the spot for a sweaty session alongside those beautiful girls and their trainers to try one of their workouts.

Boxing has been emerging as a favorite exercise for models in the past few years. Adriana Lima and Candice Swanepole are fans, sharing pictures of their dinged knuckles from the sport. One thing is for sure: boxing shapes amazing bodies! It’s a great mix of cardio  (jumping rope) & mind-body coordination that gives you everything you could hope for from a workout, most of all strength. I have enjoyed it each time I went for a private lesson and need to get back on the boxing bandwagon to get ready for bikini season.
