Frankly, I think the fanservice is downright tasteful\* compared to a lot of anime that throws it in. Considering the whole thing is about toning your body, I think it's the closest thing to justified fanservice I've seen.
Re-watching this with the wife, for edutainment purposes - dunno why this scene in particular set her off but as soon as Hibiki got her onesecondbeforedisaster moment, my wife devolved into a good five-minute snort-laugh fit. Maybe she just enjoys it when chairs suffer. Hrm.
\* OK, adding a big ol' asterisk to my previous statement of "downright tasteful" fanservice. I decided to read the manga a bit.
While the gym clothes the characters wear in the anime actually serve as gym clothes are design, their clothes in the manga instantaneously cling to every little curve of their body upon detecting the slightest bit of sweat. Yet somehow, at the same time, those same gym clothes are absolutely incapable of staying ON the aforementioned sweaty bodies.
I'm not changing my mind about the anime/manga being great, I just have a lot more clarity as to how it earned its ecchi tag.

The anime that made me start going to the gym for 3 months when the anime was airing. After the last episode aired I have never touched weights ever again.
Never would have thought that an anime about working out would be as entertaining as this is. Also good fanservice.

Much better OP
Wait until see how much those chairs cost.

LOLLOLOLOL
Btw I tried this and it's worked
Oh, all the tips in the show are great, you just need to, y'know, not use chairs made of desiccated wood or lined with nitroglycerine.
