Is that panda like hanging out on someone’s back deck?
If so, where do I sign up for that?

2 Stefanie 08.07.08 at 2:15 pm

This panda is insisting that he is, indeed, saying BOO-URNS.

3 Sissy 08.07.08 at 2:16 pm

My goodness, love that athletic apparel! I’m guessing Lululemon or Sport Chek.

4 claudia 08.07.08 at 2:24 pm

LOL! thats the kind of aerobic instructor I’d like to work with!

5 Erebella 08.07.08 at 2:24 pm

Those leg lifts are brutal! ‘Course when your legs are shorter than your arms, I guess it’s not so bad.

It’s Panda2: Electric Boogaloo!

Someone needs to lay down a piece of cardboard for him so he can showcase his street break-dancin’ skills.

I always get a bamboo smoothie after my morning panda workout.

8 blair 08.07.08 at 2:44 pm

he should be on So You Think You Can Cute

Back in the Eighties, to my undying shame, I did Aerobics,What possesed me? gawd only knows.One of the movements was called doggies i.e. like a dog pissing up a lampost, boy did it hurt my arse. Still in mitigation, I did not wear Lycra or a sweat band.

10 dawgpup 08.07.08 at 3:16 pm

i think im stuck

11 hibousoir 08.07.08 at 3:37 pm

*I* was saying “boo-urns.”

12 Mel2 08.07.08 at 3:38 pm

Way to work those hip abductors, baby panda. You’ll appreciate it when you have to fit into next season’s line of skinny furs.

13 Barbara 08.07.08 at 3:40 pm

OK, these animals have been put on this earth as the court jesters of the animal kingdom, I am convinced.

the feets!!!

14 Redbone 08.07.08 at 3:44 pm

It was there, sitting on the deck during Zookeeper Bob’s summer barbeque, that it occurred to little Ling-Long: holy moly, those burgers smell DELICIOUS.

Ten years later, on a steady diet of burgers and chili-cheese dogs, Ling-Long stands four meters tall and is rippling with muscle.

Pandas… are BACK.

At least that’s how I’d like to imagine it happens.

15 Jimbeaux 08.07.08 at 3:57 pm

The smile is just too much! He’s such a HAPPY panda, it’s hard not to be happy with him!

Yay happy panda!

16 miltoncat 08.07.08 at 3:58 pm

NOM NOM I want to neeble on his leetle ears!!

17 Alex Foster 08.07.08 at 4:06 pm

And here I thought he was trying to resurrect breakdancing.

18 Noelle 08.07.08 at 4:18 pm

Now see if I had a fitness trainer like that I could be motivated to exercise. I would burn loads of calories running after him to snuggle him time and again.

snuggle, release, chase, catch, repeat (at least 10 reps a day)

19 aloria 08.07.08 at 4:31 pm

I bet he has the most anerable of tooshies.

20 Kris 08.07.08 at 4:43 pm

Cue Jane Fonda & requisite synth music…
And Four more…
And Three more…
And Two more…
And WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
GREAT JOB EVERYBODY!!!!!

Would love to work out with the Pandas!!!

21 darkshines 08.07.08 at 4:56 pm

We need a modesty tail, hahaha!

22 sunnymum 08.07.08 at 4:57 pm

Panda bears. Nothing. Is. Cuter. The end.

23 Katrina 08.07.08 at 5:02 pm

Do pandas have tails modesty or otherwise? Maybe just stubbins of tails?
Nothing is cuter than that tiiiiny pom earlier, but this comes close!

24 charliewabba 08.07.08 at 5:09 pm

Jane Panda! I had that workout tape, but I don’t remember it being so cute. Hon Glad – I’m with you all the way. Did you have leg warmers?

25 Emochka 08.07.08 at 5:10 pm

Love to see a panda getting his daily dose of exercise!

Amy

26 Mel2 08.07.08 at 5:15 pm

Ze bleck around ze eyes — eet ees very sleeming, no?

27 Hon Glad 08.07.08 at 5:17 pm

Charliewabba: I am a Guy, there are limits! At the same Gym there were exercise machines that spoke, with statements like “You’ve got the best body in the Gym” I mean puhlease.

28 Theo 08.07.08 at 5:44 pm

[peeks sideways at Hon Glad while pretending to dab brow on sleeve]

29 BBM 08.07.08 at 6:14 pm

Weeeeheeeeew!

30 Katrina 08.07.08 at 6:34 pm

Hon Glad- your masculinity is never in question. Even leg warmers couldn’t shake our confidence. “In am Hon-Glad, hear me roar!”

Tee-hee.(*snort*)

31 charliewabba 08.07.08 at 6:41 pm

Hon Glad – I have seen stranger things in my life than men in leg warmers.

32 Katrina 08.07.08 at 7:01 pm

There’s “Men in Tights”.

33 Jana 08.07.08 at 7:06 pm

awe!! i love him! he is a happy panda. happy happy!! i want to take him home and snuggle with him. yay.

34 Theresa 08.07.08 at 7:21 pm

@Hon Glad, I did aerobics too, and that’s why I still have earworms of “1999″ and “Give It To Me Baby”

35 charliewabba 08.07.08 at 7:29 pm

there are certain songs I can never listen to again, lest they conjure up memories of butt-tucks, sit ups, endless arm circles and (shudder) doggie leg lifts.

36 Marie 08.07.08 at 7:43 pm

He’d keep me in top shape for sure cuz I’d never miss a class!

Look at that face – so commanding and yet so preh-cious!

37 Ermine_Violin 08.07.08 at 7:54 pm

First my haid was spinning cause of this adorable pictures and now my haid is spun clear OFF after finding out that the Hon Glad is a GUY!!!

Holy gender confusion on my part Bathman…

38 Tee 08.07.08 at 8:41 pm

I believe that even I (who has never been to a gym) could be motivated by this cutie!

Let’s get Animal….

Just missing the headband.

39 Blanche 08.07.08 at 11:15 pm

Mmmm The Club Med has got new instructors, it seems. I may consider travelling with them next winter. “Paws up – Panda paws up – Give me your heart, gimme gimme your heart…”

40 mike d 08.08.08 at 1:59 am

41 ashagato 08.08.08 at 3:20 am

42 Golden or NTKTOK 08.08.08 at 3:54 am

New spokesperson for gymnastics in the Beijing Games.

44 Hon Glad 08.08.08 at 6:51 am

Theresa:I had never heard of Rick James before…and I still wish I hadn’t (he’s camper than a row of pink army tents, the hair,gak!. My aerobics tune is Gloria Estafan’s “I can’t stay away from you” used on the cool down session at the end.

45 coot 08.08.08 at 7:44 am

46 Subhangi 08.08.08 at 10:30 am

Awwww, who’s a roly-poly bebeh?

::boop on panda nose::

47 Gail (the first one) 08.08.08 at 10:32 am

Props to you, Hon Glad for your manly foray into aerobics!! (Even though you don’t like Rick James!)

48 sk 08.08.08 at 12:50 pm

Eat your heart out, Jane Fonda:

49 Patito Gigante 08.09.08 at 5:54 am

Aw crap, I forgot to breathe!

50 binky-mama 08.09.08 at 7:38 am

Good grief. Is that a baby panda…in a panda CRIB?

51 Snorga 08.10.08 at 6:21 am
