I resent the presence of men in my women's gym.

[bertha katzenengel]

They're personal trainers. I get it. But it's a women's gym. I don't want men in that place. It's not up to me, and there's no sign on the door that says "WOMEN ONLY."

My irrational mind tells these women, "If you want a male trainer, go to a co-ed gym."

I don't hate, nor am I afraid of, men. Just get out of my gym, fellas. Ya bug me.

1. I would find that rather off putting myself.

2. Me too. I would feel very self-conscious and unlikely to come back again

3. it sucks.

it's rare, but when it happens, like today, it sucks.

4. I don't like guys in my gym, either. And I'm a guy.

Actually, I just don't like sweating near other sweaty strangers.

That's why I'm happy to report I picked up a Bowflex machine last month for $200. Now my wife and I can each work out whenever we want, I never have to wait for a machine, and I can look how I want to look.

6. Great buy!

:hi:

[Common Sense Party]

11. Yup. We were very happy. I've wanted one for a long time,

but I wasn't going to shell out $800 or more.

Between the bowflex, jogging in place on our mini-tramp, and kicking the bag, I can now do a great workout here in the basement, and I don't have to drive to the gym, and I get to listen to what I want.

5. I wouldn't like that either...

kudos to you for going to the gym though. You're more dedicated than I am.

8. Kesha, I have no idea what's getting me there.

I know why I'm going: because I don't want to die before my niece gets it together. Because I don't want to die at age 45, or 50, or 60, etc.

But I don't know what's getting me there. I never want to go. I just don't want to go. but I go. I resent the hell out of it, but I go.

Today was BAD because of the guy that was there. I REALLY resented it. But i was there.

9. It's YOU taking control

of YOU.

:loveya:

I know I should exercise but I haven't had the energy. I'm hoping that will change with the Iron Infusions I'm getting and the increase in vitamin/mineral supplements. My mind has big ideas, by body doesn't cooperate :shrug:

Trying to get myself out of a funk. At least I do go for a walk at night. It's something.

:hug:

10. Good for walking!

I'm proud of you. :hug:
