New Year's Resolution: Going to the GYM

[Domboski]

How many people started the new year by committing to the gym again? When I used to work out a lot I hated this time of year becuase the gym would be crowded. Now that is me causing the crowding!

I am so sore it is not even funny. The good thing is I go to the gym during lunch so there is no one there :biggrin:

What was your New Year resolution if it was not going to the gym?

lol, just before new years I bought a year subscription to a local gym.
Unfortunately... I've been too busy/sick for a bit to use it.

excuses excuses.
It's a nice gym though, open 24/4, great size, great equipment, only 8mins from my place....
Alas...I am still 20-30lbs from where I'd like to be.

I also wanted to do the mastercleanse (10 days of organic/unprocessed lemon juice/maple syrup and salt water)
But uhm...I can't run to the bathroom every 30mins at my job...

For the gym it's always best to go with a group of friends, that way you have encouragement to keep going, and people to make you go when you don't feel like it.

Yeah for the gym its definitely a good idea to find a partner to work out with. That way if you don't feel like going, you have someone to get your off your a$$ and get to the gym. It works both ways, trust me:lol2:

Between work and school I don't have time for the gym, so I ride my bike indoors (with the help of a trainer) and I jump rope in my basement. On weekends I run.

When I graduate in May, I will go back to the gym.

I have been going to the gym for over a year now, and always notice the extra stuffing around this time...and I got at 5:30am, usually only lasts for a month! Stick with it!!!

I agree that having a partner is much better. I'm pretty good about going though. I had a nice streak of about 10 years straight going to the gym. It has been the last 4-5 years I have been on and off.

I'm committed this time for sure. The beer belly put me over the top

I went for about 8 years straight, took 4 weeks off to go to Australia, and it killed my going to the gym. Been struggling with going for the last 3 years now. Always on and off.
