So, I heard about this on the TV just a bit ago and thought, well, this is a funny story...
Naked Sundays
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands - Self-conscious about what you wear while working out? A Dutch gym plans to introduce “Naked Sunday” for people who like to huff and puff in the buff.
Patrick de Man, owner of Fitworld gym in the town of Heteren, said he got the idea in part from two of his customers who are avid nudists.
“I heard that some other gyms are offering courses on ‘pole-dancing’ as a sport, so I thought: Why not bring something new to the market?” de Man said.
He said the response had been overwhelming — positive and negative.
The 70,000-member Dutch Federation of Naturists was curious to see if Fitworld’s plan would work, spokesman Bernd Huiser said.
“We recently conducted a large survey among our members, and most prefer to exercise with their clothes on,” he said. “The most popular activities (for nudists) are things you do outdoors, like walking on the beach, or swimming in a lake, or maybe gardening.”
De Man said the first question Fitworld customers were asking was whether it would be sanitary.
Nude exercisers would be required to put towels down on weight machines and to use disposable seat covers while riding bikes. All machines would be cleaned and disinfected afterward. “We clean them every day anyway,” he said.
The first “Naked Sunday” is scheduled for March 4.
Funnier though is the 2nd google result (surrounded by a bunch of ones about what I was looking for)...
Naked Sundays
I think I prefer the latter to the former...

Naked Sundays
Christina Aguilera and her music exec husband Jordan Bratman have a sexy secret for keeping their marriage exciting – getting naked on Sundays.
"We claim ourselves to be coziest couple ever," the 26-year-old Grammy nominee (for her Back to Basics album) tells Ellen DeGeneres on her talk show Wednesday. "We have something called naked Sundays."
"Excuse me?" DeGeneres asks. "Did you say naked Sundays?"
"You have to keep marriage alive, spice it up," says Aguilera, admitting that some added heat is required even though the two have only been married for "a big whole year."
"[In November] we just celebrated our first anniversary, and on Sundays we just do everything in the house, and we're just cozy and laid back," she says. "We don't need to go anywhere, we're just with each other." We do everything naked. We cook naked."
DeGeneres suggests there is one thing they should avoid during their nude time: "Nothing with grease – that could splatter."
But Aguilera isn't deterred, saying: "Well, unless you want the grease."
