The Nine Inches Of Success Inch 6:Let Me Hear Your Body Talk

   Most would say that six inches is plenty to get the job done. And that's what we're all about at Males In Motion...getting the job done. Our sixth inch of success for an exotic male dancer involves taking care of the body. Building a body that gets the looks that leads to making the tips. I'll say it once again, different types of dancers are liked by different types of fans. Different shapes and sizes appeal to different fans. I've mentioned big, hairy guys that are often referred to as bears who like their dancers to fit that description. There are those who like the young, slim 'twink' type dancers, and there are those that like the muscle guys who spend hours at the gym to build bulk. And all of those have their fans, and can make decent tips when dancing at a club or event. But they are sometimes limited to a specific fan base. The most marketable is still the guy with the 6 pack abs, V shape muscle back, bubble butt, handsome or cute face, defined chest, arms and legs, who has been amply endowed between the legs. That's just the reality. Add a gracious, sexy personality, and he's the dancer that can pick up the most gigs and will often be the center of attention at a bar, club or event.

   Let's make this clear, if you were not blessed with the above description, that doesn't mean you are any less than those who have been. It just means that your gene pool did not supply some of the characteristics mentioned. So what! You can still be a successful dancer because the bottom line is...fans of exotic male dancers like attention and any exotic male dancer can provide the right kind of attention to make a fan happy with their experience of the night! At the same time, I say, build all the physical tools that you can for your success. Find a work out routine that will help you create a body that is marketable. Generating enough interest to cause a fan to step up and tip is the goal. A well-defined body is the first tool out of the toolbox that they will see. Do what you can to make it cause a reaction.(Photo Above: Stockbar, Montreal)

   There are so many options when determining your physical fitness routine. There are too many links to list for online sources. There are books, e-books, and magazines at the local bookstore devoted to the topic. There are nearby fitness centers with training coaches or partners to help you design a routine to meet your specific needs. My advice is to be realistic and look at your current physical situation, then determine what you want to achieve, then set realistic goals to get there. If you can afford to hire a personal trainer, do so, and let him/her know what you are trying to achieve. (Photo Above: Club Share, Las Vegas)

   If you cannot afford a personal trainer, then I recommend that you find a male model, athlete, celebrity, porn star, etc. that has the type of body you are desiring. Research online to find out what this person does to keep in shape, and what type of workout routine they do to shape their body. Again, be realistic, your bone structure or other physical characteristics of your body might not allow you to be exactly like the person you have chosen as your goal 'look'. Also, no matter how much you may wish for a 10" penis, if you are over a certain age and it isn't that length, chances are, it isn't going to happen. You can however, improve the muscle tone of your body, create more muscle definition, achieve a lean stomach, and climb a few stairs every day and watch the bubble on that butt begin to appear. (Photo Above: Pan Dulce, Southern California)

   If you are a personal trainer or if you have used the services of one that you would like to recommend, please either leave a comment after this blog, or email your information and I will post it in an update at the bottom of this blog. Also, if you are a male model, athlete, celebrity, porn star, etc., and would like some free 'exposure', let us know your workout routine or a link where we can find the information, and I'll post it as well. (Photo Above: Club Xstatic, Springfield, MA)

   Until next time, put down that cheeseburger, start climbing those stairs instead of using the elevator, and buy some tight-fitting, sexy underwear and start dancing. Oh, and send me pics of your progress. You can do it!

DISCLAIMER: I am not a physical trainer, nor do I make any type of recommendations from a background of such. I am simply making suggestions. If you follow them, you will do so at your own risk. I accept no responsibility for your choices. So read, and ask experts in the area of physical fitness to make the most informed choices.(Photo Above: Males In Motion archives)

Gay Porn Stars As Exotic Male Dancers

With the month of June being the high point for many gay pride celebrations, you see the names of gay porn stars popping up in advertising all around the country, and often, around the globe. It has become an entertainment mainstay to have gay porn stars appearing on stage at male strip clubs and gay clubs. With this in mind, I decided to write a blog series featuring some of the hotties that have appeared at clubs or as seen below in tribute videos. (WARNING: These links will take you to a gay porn site and you may see pics of male-on-male sex, and will definitely see male nudity.) Photo Right: Malachi Marx
Revisiting 2010    In 2010 some of the guys at Randy Blue participated in a tribute video featuring the song, "Get Outta My Way" by Kylie Minogue. I saw the original (link above) and this tribute video (below) when they first came out but recently the song has captured my attention again. Play the tribute video below before moving to the rest of the blog. You'll enjoy it again, or for the first time! Then enjoy a few more recent pics of some of the guys in the video.

And since these guys are porn stars and get paid to take off their clothes, among other things...well, it's only right that we post a few pics like those that follow. Enjoy!

The Nine Inches of Success Inch 5:Go All The Way!

   With inch 5 of our Nine Inches of Success, we find we are at the half-way point. You can stop here and pull out, but we all know that it feels so much better if you push in a little deeper and 'Go All The Way!'

   OK, I know I just sent you off to fantasy land or you were revisiting some amazing past experience but I need you to refocus and come back. What I'm actually talking about is the exotic male dancer stepping off the stage, platform, box, or out of the cage, and getting involved in the special night of a fan. If you are serious about making as much as possible for the night in tips, you'll need to be aggressive without being obnoxious.  (Photo Source: MJ's ~ Silverlake, CA)

   Bar or Club patrons visit the bar for a variety of reasons. At the top of the list are celebrations, escape from stress at work or home, and have a night out with friends. The smart male dancer will find ways to enhance the experience of the customers. Finding ways to add to the fun of their night will make a positive impression and will often lead to more tips that night, and when they visit in the future.  (Photo Source: Global Male Productions ~ San Diego, CA)

Here are a few suggestions for getting involved in a customer's special night:

  (Photo Source: LaBare ~ Dallas, TX)
• Start by greeting everyone that walks in the door. Let them know that they are noticed and tell them welcome to..., glad you are here, etc., whatever feels comfortable for you.
• Ask how there night is going? They will usually tell you if they are celebrating a birthday or special event. If ok with the management, offer a one song free lap dance for a birthday, etc. They will tip you anyway, but state that it's free because it's their birthday. You have just created a potential big tipper.
• If you find out someone is having a special night, pass it on to the other dancers. All dancers should at least stop by and tell the customer "Happy Birthday!" When you go out of your way to make their night special, they are going to create free promotion and marketing for you and the club. They are going to tell everyone they know about their night. They will tip more if given some attention. And they will return for future visits. Your club and the male dancers at the club will become known for making everyone feel special when at the club.
• Always participate in theme nights at the club by selecting a costume/underwear that fits the theme. You'll add to the atmosphere.

• If you have no 'need for privacy' issues, pose for pics with customers. And realize, they will show up on facebook, etc. But this will be good promo for you and the club where you are dancing.

   Let me give you an example of what I'm talking about, Buck Stone is an exotic male dancer and a friend of mine. In March I hired him to perform at an event and he worked for 2.5 to 3 hours. He did not do lap dances. There was no VIP room. He did not perform nude. He danced and wore a leather harness, leather shorts that laced up the side, and leather boots. I will admit, his hot body looked great in the all-leather costume. He danced that night but more importantly he worked his way around the large club charming the guests and making tips.

   I am still frequently asked when we can have him back again for another event. He made the guests feel special, and helped to make sure they were having fun. He got involved in the special night for the guest. He could have stood on a stage and just danced. Some of the customers would have tipped him, but he was smarter. He got involved in their night. All I need to say is that it was a good financial night for Buck. It was a win-win situation for the dancer and the customers. He was entertaining to make money and they were there to celebrate and have a good time.  (Photo Source: Buck Stone's Facebook Page)

   Until next time, go all the way!

The Dancer's Dozen ~ Twelve Underwear StylesWe Like On Male Strippers

   Are you looking for hot, sexy underwear to dance in? We've gone through all the products found at Skiviez and have listed our 12 favorite styles for exotic male dancers. We have also told you why we think the particular pair of underwear, jock strap, etc., is a good choice. Take a few minutes and see our selections and read what we've said. Let us know if you agree.

	Gregg Homme Boytoy Low Rise Trunk    Made of a lunimous reflective material, these trunks are stretchy and can move as you dance. They sit low and fit firmly around all the right places. The lights in the dance club will bounce off these trunks keeping the focus on you, and sending out a call to all tippers. They will also photograph well for promo pics.
	Intymen Euro Low Rise Brief This brief should be your first purchase. Let your inner exotic male dancer out! The soft fabric will hug your body and move with you throughout the gig. The pouch front will keep the 'boys' secure and add to the illusion that there is more that meets the eye then what may possibly actually be there.
	Papi Stretch Low Rise Brief 2 Pack    Every exotic male dancer needs a sexy pair of white briefs. These aren't the tighty-whities of old. These Papi Low Rise Briefs have a shorter cut on the legs placing emphasis between the legs. White is the perfect choice for showing everything without being nude. These briefs are the perfect choice for wet underwear contests.
	C-IN2 Zen Active Sport Brief    This pair of briefs was created for the athlete. They provide ease of movement for working out. Well, every exotic male dancer knows that a night of dancing is definitely a work out. The rayon blend fabric will keep you cool and dry. And of course, I like these because of their focus on the crotch. They fit snugly around the 'family jewels'.
	Active Man Camo Jock Strap    A jock strap is sexy and this one also prepares you for a military theme night. If a bare ass is not allowed, place a brief or camo boxers on top. Make sure you reveal the jock strap while dancing...create a few new fantasies.
	Baskit Snugfit Seamless Trunk    Boxer briefs work well if they fit well. Baggy is never good. That's no problem with this pair. And your junk will be on display as the fabric molds to every contour. I've selected to show you this brief in white because it's the most revealing color. The fans will tip and say thank you for wearing these. They'll look good under the lights of the dance floor, platform, or stage.
	Clever Sporty Mesh Trunk    I like this Boxer Brief because it picks up the 'boys' and puts them on display. The color blocking makes the eyes focus on the crotch. So, if you've been blessed between the legs, then wear it with confidence. Avoid this trunk if you have skinny legs but with a little muscle in your thighs, it will look great.
	Calvin Klein Body Hip Brief    Everyone needs a classic label in their wardrobe and Calvin Klein is one of the best! The brand is known for quality. We recommend this little number for the way it rides on the hips. But the best feature of this brief is the way the light reflects off the fabric, causing shadows around the male anatomy. A perfect choice if you have great abs!
	Cocksox Sports Brief    This Australian brand underwear speaks for itself. It is a sock for the cock! We love the way it wraps around the cock and balls, pulls them up, and says 'hello'! Every thing is covered, but everything is almost known! These are damn sexy and will draw a lot of attention in your direction! If you choose to wear these, let us know where you'll be dancing. We'll want to stop by.
	2xist (X)treme Pouch Sport Brief    If you are a dancer who needs a little more room in your pouch to fit all you've been blessed with, then this is the brief for you. (I pause here for a moment to consider all the possibiities.) Wear this brief for great style, a comfortable fit, and an admiring, grateful audience. Let the tipping begin!
	Timoteo Hero Low Rise Trunk    This pair from Timoteo has looks, comfort, and is perfect for dancing. I recommend these for the go-go boys. They fit every body type; are short and sexy; and, most importantly to us fans, they mold around the basket and butt. They are like a second skin. The waistband is perfect as well for holding all those dollar bills.
	Good Devil Zoom Trunk    With this trunk from Good Devil there is no doubt that you are on stage to entertain. If you are wanting all eyes in your direction, then this is what you need to wear. In red, white, blue or black, step out to the waiting crowd and watch the smiles light up on their faces.

   Hopefully you've found something hot above that you want to wear. Whether on stage or in the bedroom, or maybe that underwear night at the bar, take a few moments and select your favorites. Until next time, tip the boys well so they can buy some more hot underwear to wear for us!

Club Review: 2012 All-Nude Boxers-N-BriefsNear St. Louis, MO

   If you have been a follower of my blog for any length of time, you may have noticed that I mention Boxers-N-Briefs often. There are at least three reasons for this. First, it is often the closest all-nude male strip club to where I am working. Second, it was the very first all-nude male strip club that I visited and I had so much fun that I have continued to return over the past few years. And third, I have always found at least one sexy male dancer at the club that made me want to come back for more.

   So, it may come as no surprise that this year when I was deciding where to celebrate my birthday, I chose Boxers-N-Briefs. My group of three stopped in at BnB on Saturday, May 19. It is funny to me that even now when I walk into an all-nude male strip club, I have a momentary shock as I see the first live nude dancer of the night on stage or on the bar. I'm sure this is a result of my conservative midwest/southern upbringing. The shock of course is one of excitement and an urgency to get inside and see more.

   We entered the club and followed a sign that said to pay at the bar. We paid the $10 cover and ordered our first drinks. Do not expect cheap drinks here. They weren't. But that's not unusual for a club of this kind. There are nightly drink specials that will save you a few dollars so check them out before ordering. While at the bar, ask for the bartender Rob. He is one of the nicest people you'll meet and a great bartender. Tell him Mike from Males In Motion says hi.

   As is our normal procedure, we found a table near the bar so we could watch the dancers on the bar. There are usually two at a time and they rotate throughout the night. There is also a shower and the night we were there, we watched three different dancers in the shower. Very nice! After they finish, they will walk around with a bucket for tips. Drop a buck or two (or more if you wish) into the bucket. I mean just think about it...a hot male dancer, naked, soaping up and rinsing off in the shower right before your very eyes...most enjoyable and worth giving a tip!

 (Pic above: BnB Male Dancer Chino...Hey Chino, thanks for letting us use the pic. Sorry we missed you this trip. We'll catch you next trip!)
   If you want to tip the dancers at the bar, make your way to the bar and take a seat on one of the bar stools. The dancers move around to the customers and stop to dance in front of them. They start out in underwear but as the tips begin to come in, they remove the underwear but wear socks so they have a place for you to put the tips. A dancer will usually stay in front of you until you have stopped tipping, then will move on to the next customer.

   The highlight of this BnB excursion was a dancer that goes by the name of Bailey. He is tall and slim, brown hair, and has a light scattering of body hair on his chest and flat stomach. Bailey kept my group company often during the night stopping by to joke around, flirt and keep us interested. He found out from one of my friends that it was my birthday and stopped by to give me a shoulder and neck rub. Thank you Bailey! If you get the opportunity to stop in at BnB please spend some time with Bailey. You'll be glad you did.

   If you would like to be the center of attention for a dancer, purchase a private lap dance. Ask the bartender the pricing. You can receive a lap dance from a male dancer while he is in underwear for one price, and for a little more, he will dance fully nude. There are club policies and laws I'm sure concerning their conduct while in the private lounge, just ask the male dancer for the specifics.

   There is a stage with a pole in another area of the club. When it is busy, there will be at least one and sometimes two other dancers at that stage. The stage has chairs all the way around it. You can sit and watch the dancers and tip from your seat. Keep an eye out for your favorites and step to this stage when they are up.

   I have a few pointers to share to make your experience at BnB the best it can be. Saturday night is one of the busiest times at the club. The dancers are a mix of straight and gay. The straight dancers are usually gay-friendly, however, as in most male strip clubs, when the ladies arrive, the straight guys tend to gravitate in their direction. It's only natural. I recommend that anyone, but particularly gay men, go to the club on a Thursday or Friday night. You will get more attention, and isn't that what we want! When there are fewer customers, but several dancers, they work harder for the tips and you'll be the one who benefits. Also, if you like a dancer and want to tip him, move to the bar or stage where he is dancing when he first steps up. If he is a popular dancer and there are a lot of customers who want to tip him, his session may be over before you've had the opportunity.

   Male strip clubs like BnB hire new dancers all the time. It is rare to see the same dancer at the same club for several years. Dancers come and go. The mix of types changes as well. On this trip most of the dancers were slim, younger, caucasian or latino and cute. If you are into size, well, there were several dancers who would make you happy. All of those in the shower shows would have met your expectations and more.

   I'm already planning a future visit to Boxers-N-Briefs. Until next time, go find Bailey at Bnb. And don't forget to tip!

Indulge Yourself In A Secret Naked GetawayClub Xstatic ~ Springfield, Massachusetts

   It has been a year or so since I had the pleasure of enjoying a night at Club Xstatic in Springfield, MA.  This club has stood the test of time while other similar venues have come and gone in the Northeast.   A friend of mine lost his private lap dance virginity at this club during my visit, when for the very first time he spent a few minutes in the company of a lean, yet muscular blond dancer.  And he has fond memories of his experience.  I hope to soon return but I am not sure when that will happen.  But those of you who live in the Northeast or will be traveling there can take a simple train ride to Springfield, MA, stay at the hotel only two blocks away from the club, and enjoy a night or better yet, a weekened secret get away with some very hot, and yes, very naked male dancers.

   Let Club Xstatic be your secret indulgence. For me it's a place where you get lost in the atmosphere, shake off the stress of life, enjoy a beer or cocktail, and have some good ol' fashioned 'dirty' fun. I describe it like this:

Mike's Club Xstatic Get Away Weekend:

---

• Arrive at Club Xstatic, a Northeast Destination that caters to feeding the senses.
• Relax (if you can) with your favorite drink in hand, and watch exotic precision movement above, below, and around the pole
• Ignore the clock and let the night slip away.
• Place your tips in and under...you finish this sentence.
• Feast on some delightful "eye candy".
• Splurge and enjoy a private lap dance or two with your favorite exotic male dancers.
• Explore your fantasies and create memories you'll remember for many years.
• And if it's a weekend. You can come back the next night and do it again.

UPDATE (November 13, 2012): Cobalt King (from Facebook) recently visited Club Xstatic. He had this to say... ""On "Muscle Monday", I went to see my favorite dancers at my favorite nude male strip club, Xstatic in Springfield, Massachusetts. They serve alcohol there and the bartenders are friendly and fun. They also have a great dance floor (for patrons to get their groove on away from the two stages). The relocated dance floor is just one of the changes. Other renovations include the reconfiguration of the private dance area. The club's ambience is comfortable, urban, chic, but also familiar in a "Cheers" kind of way. You get the best of small city/unique big city entertainment in a place that's easy to get to, affordable as a tourist, and filled with hot naked dancers who are happy to shake their penises and balls in your face. I have a few favorite dancers, but on this past Monday, I spent most of my time with Bryce. He's a solidly constructed man who is fit and sculpted. His private dances are fucking incredible! Go to Club Xstatic and truly let your guard down, so you can drink in the fantasy" Cobalt King I've added a pic here of Bryce so you guys can see why Cobalt King is so fond of him.

UPDATE: In Spring 2013, Club Xstatic moved and changed their name to Xroom at Mardi Gra. You can find updated information at their website by clicking here.

UPDATE: In June 2014, Mike visited Xroom at Mardi Gra. Click here to read his review.
