Wall Street Journal: Watch: China’s Military Promotes New ‘Masculine and Vigorous’ Aerobics Routine
If you’re looking for your next exercise fix, skip the ab roller and yoga videos: The People’s Liberation Army has a new workout for you.
The freshly released five-minute set of calisthenics—which involves a series of shoulder rolls, energetic arm pumps, fixed-place hopping and a move vaguely reminiscent of the ‘80s-style Running Man—came in for lavish praise from China’s state media on Friday.
“It absorbs aspects of popular dance and Chinese tai-chi, as well as other factors. The content is novel and original; it has its own distinct style, and the movements are masculine and vigorous,” declared China’s military newspaper, the PLA Daily. The moves would be popularized throughout the army and armed police forces, the paper said.
