The girl with the guy has been training and feels good and confident hence why she has the guy. The metaphor is that fitness is better than surgery. 'Whats your after?' is a 'signifier' which signifies which girl will end up happier, in this case the girl with the grapes and guy. 'its not fitness' metonym for it's life, meaning join Equinox! Its actually a clever advert, you have to think about it unlike most ads which require little to no thought at all.! This ad contrasts really well between surgery and purity, in a sense, natural beauty and unatural beauty. the advert means this:

I didn't have a freakin clue what it was about though! I had to look at the tiny print to figure it was for a gym and that got me even more confused. lol THEN I read your headliner about the grapes and I totally didn't see them at first. I guess I was distracted by the dumbness. All in all, it's dumb and we should send hate mail to Equinox. I saw this ad the other day too. I didn’t have a freakin clue what it was about though!

Like socialite status. either it works for the rich, or they think the rich are all like Paris Hilton Sagan- good idea. Ill creep awaaay....and then take off running Allison K- i like 24 hour fitness because all of its ads are normal everyday people.

LisaR- its looks like one right? one that Tyra would say "i just dont see it in your eyes- you have to smile with your eyes" Maggie- AMEN charlotte- very plausible. I bet those grapes are poison as well. white swimmie girl will be next. best soy latte- WELCOME! I love de-lurkers. all you lurker DELURK NOW! ModelBehavior- i KNEW a real model would understand this! we are all just not high fashion enough. please forgive us. cara- she is VERY gorgeous. and i would kill for her hair.

I really did think that was an ANTM promo at first glance, too. It's just an utterly ridiculous ad, and it will attract utterly ridiculous people. Meh. I do think the brunette in the foreground is gorgeous, though. Hmmmm, he’s a bit of a short arse, no?

I totally get it: If you lay down like a skank and spread your legs some dude will feed you grapes in a backyard with statues in it. And also that ugly white bikinis get you the guy over ugly gold bikinis every time. Ok, is that all cleared up now? What’s wrong with you all? I totally get it:
