Anyway

onlyI

I do visit Iran every year and agree that the older generation women are obese but the young ones are absolutely gorgeous with nice bodies, and they take care of it,  and are not obese.  Obese children is, however, a major problem as I see most children are not just fat but in fact OBESE and their mothers feed them all the American type junk foods like chips, pizza, and hamburger, which I also remind them of its dangers.  This is the American "culture" like the rest of it, and you guys want to copy! 

As an elderly woman, I do tell the young women how beautiful they are. And, they are the masters of using cosmetics especially on the eyes. Well, the face is the only part they can show and  so they put most effort to make it attractive and they are.

The title says "Women do Aerobics", but I do see guys on the left......this is a co-ed crowd for sure!

When was the last time you were in Iran "Jaleho?"

AO is right.  Obesity is becoming an issue in Iran.  I see it every time I go there.  The problem is that our food is high in carbs, people are eating more fast food, every family has two cars and a dozen cell phones (so they're walking less and less), kids are stuck in front of TV with video games, etc.  The same problems that are in the West.  And yes, Americans and Europeans are fat too.  It's a global problem.  Now, I know that your type is really not a big fan of pesky little things like "facts", but the BBC had a piece on Iran and obesity some time ago that I think you should read:

 //news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4563776.stm

 It is good to see a culture of excercise being introduced to the country.  Hopefully more people will participate.  

Nice to see them caring

Nice to see them caring about their health. But they should demand the government to do something about the pollution. The government of Teharn has badly failed in creating a healthy and liveable city.

obesity in Iran??!/Medulla Oblongata

That's the time that AO used to live in Iran. Ghyas be nafs mifarmayand. These days Iranian girls have much better bodies the fat Americans!

Medulla oblangata, not sure of this, but the singer MIGHT BE Hande Yener. I will give you youtube links, you decide:

Not shot

In response to AO, to be shot is OTT, needs to be akhteh ( castrated!),

Joking aside, very groovy music, anyone knows the name of the singer or the song?

Miss Tehran

can't wait to visit again soon, maybe sept. or aug. we'll see.

I like it - There is a big obesity problem in Iran

more power to these ladies for excercising...although I do have to say that the instructor is "naa mahram," and he, therefore, needs to be shot!

I'm also glad to see that the city is enforcing the "no walking on grass" rules (as is apparent from the videographer's comment).  It's good to see attention is being paid to the environment. 

PS- is that Turkish music?!!!
