Tateman Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 So I had signed up for a local gym. I have signed up with other gyms before. It usually goes like this. I sign up. Then when I go, I want to do things like weights etc. Instead, I hit the treadmill. Sometimes I keep going for a bit, but I always just hit the treadmill. I don't know why. Gym intimidation, that feeling people will make fun of me, or whatever the feeling. Then it seems like I eventually stop going. Then like a year later, I am paying for a gym membership, and not even going. So this new gym is cheap. There are trade offs of course from going to a bigger gym. The best part to me though, is one trainer session a month is included in the membership. So for $20 a month, I get to workout at any of the places, and I get 30 minutes with a trainer. Monday was my "Evaluation". I didn't chicken out, and I did it. The trainer gave me an idea of what to try to start with. We did one workout there. So yay, I did it. This isn't the woot part though. Today, I went back. I had a plan in my head of exercises to do, and I did them. Well, most of them. I ended up not doing the bench press. I did do a similar exercise on the machine weights though. So my woot, is that I actually went to the gym and worked out. I did get a few minutes in on the treadmill at teh end, but that was just to get a few extra steps in The workout was nothing super grand or anything. Some barbells, a bench, and me in front of a mirror pushing up weight Overall, it is a start. 7 Quote Tateland.com, Instagram, Fitbit Link to comment

Klonk Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 No need to be modest, Tateman. Getting in, getting started, that's a big W00T. Like the fat man says, a stroll starts with a single step... or something like that. 1 Quote Link to comment
SkwatsNThings Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 That sounds like a massive WOOT to me. Well done and hope you get on well with your next session 1 Quote Link to comment
Prairieknitwit Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 You deserve a big WOOT. The hardest part of any workout is the walk out the door. YOU DID IT. 1 Quote Daily Battle Log Link to comment

Tateman Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I did Friday leg day. Granted, I only did a couple of weights, but it is a start until I get doing more. 1 Quote Tateland.com, Instagram, Fitbit Link to comment
animuse Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Yeah, leg day! Having a personal trainer definitely helps me out, since they can show you new things you wouldn't think of/were too nervous to try. 1 Quote Level 12 Kitsune Ranger It's an adventuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure!
