On some National Geographic article in the 90s about the Los Angeles area, there was a photo of a gym class, maybe Tae Bo or spinning, can't remember, with a gloating caption from the instructor - "We get a lot of very driven, type-A people around here", and I cannot for the life of me imagine anything other than being bored half to tears and maybe death, in that... intensely shallow environment.

Imagine all those SUVs and BMWs in the gym parking lot. Yuck.
Hot! Core! Power! Yoga! "We get a lot of very driven, type-A people around here."
