Living in New York does little to promote an active lifestyle, and outside of gyms, the city can seem quite bereft of recreation. How can one hope to enjoy the excitement of playing sports without having to suffer all the inconvenient consequences, like shortness of breath, heart palpitations, and breaking a sweat? XS New York offers the sedentary an alternative to the tedium of real exercise with gizmos like life-size baseball and soccer video simulators, a virtual skateboard machine, and an entire floor given over to a laser-tag course. There's even a bar that's open on weekends, in case the action gets to be a bit much.
