So i joined I gym this week...
I had been fighting the decision off for months, and boy, did I have excuses - tons of them. My job is too busy, I don't want to drive there. I don't want to be locked in to a commitment. I can always run outside,etc, etc. etc.
But in the back of my mind I knew it was the right thing to do. And maybe it was the trip to running in Florida and then comparing it with the 10 below 0 windchill, that changed my mind. Or maybe it was the fact that I've gained 9 pounds since the Ironman. In any case, I decided to sign up.
So would you want to join a gym? It's that time of year after all. If you're interested, here's a couple things to look for:
- Find a gym close to your home or office - the closer, the easier it is to fit into your schedule.
- Decide what you want before you go - yoga classes are great, but if you have no interest then it doesn't really matter.
- Ask for a weekly pass to try it out - try it before you buy it.
- Be comfortable with the staff, and the membership policies - don't feel pushed into anything, be sure to ask questions and find out how you may cancel the policy if you move, change jobs, etc.
