To All "Resolutionists" who will be joining a gym this New Year:

I just want to take a moment to say welcome. I hope that you enjoy your time at the gym, and I think that it's awesome that you are doing something to achieve your fitness goals. I have to warn you, though. Some who frequent your new gym of choice will be irritated at you for a few weeks. They'll throw you dirty looks and post snippy tweets/Facebook/MFP statuses about the "fatties" and "resolutionists" who need to "get out of their gym" because "their" machine is always taken up by someone who apparently doesn't seem to deserve it just because they joined after the New Year. I've been on the receiving end of those attitudes and they can be discouraging. Don't worry about that, or those people. Focus on you and what you want out of the experience, and don't let anyone dissuade you. Find a gym you like, design a workout schedule you can stick to, and go for it. I'm rooting for you! If you join my gym (VIDA in Washington DC), I'll see you there. Happy New Year!
