Music and workouts usually go hand-in-hand, but in this case, it won't be quite what you'd expect. Gym Box recently teamed up with Stubhub to launch a 'Crowd Surf Ready' class that makes it possible for music lovers to prepare themselves for the ultimate concert experience by training themselves to be strong lifters and crowd surfers.
The cardio- and strength-focused class also offers a few tips on perfecting one's crowd surfing maneuvers. For instance, the Gymbox legend and Mechanical Engineering PhD student, Firas Iskandarani who developed the unique class studied the gravitational physics of crowd surfing. He notes: "After a few bevvies, you may be feeling a bit floppy, but the most important thing when you crowd surf is to keep your body straight."
