I love my little gym but.....

FitJoani

I adore my little gym, but I went to start my free month at the new gym and I AM IN LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sooo digging this place. I played basketball today and I havent dont that in YEARS!!!! I kicked a soccerball around and swam. I felt like I was at camp or something!!!! I still have skillz(hahahahaha) actually I think I am more gifted now in the court. I also hopped on this almost virtual reality stationary bike, where it was a video game and you saw your virtual path, competitors, and course ahead as well as a pacer. It took the boring out of a cardio routine. It wasn't easy either it was more like a real bike, and definatelly pumped my ticker. Unfortunately the gym is a little high but I may do it anyways, cause I have the theroy that if I spend the money on my fitness now, it will pay out in the long run with great health. I am still gonna keep my other gym though, cause it is sooo close and inexpensive...I am a bit obsessed one may say

Ditto, stupid student loans!!!!
Oh well, I'm picking up bits and pieces of exercise kit as I go. I'm going to make my own gym if I have to

I have tried those virtual reality bikes and yes they are hard but fun. But that one is on the army base nearby and now they don't allow civilians in so I have to work out at home. I use to work at the one in town but since I put on this weight I won't go near that place with a ten foot pole. I cannot let them see me like this even if I just had a baby. I mean the one step instructor had her baby and was back to her svelte self in 1 month!!!!:sad: WHY NOT ME I SAY???!!!!:sad:

Because some people just aren't human :grumble:

That place sounds GREAT!
To bad I hafta stick to my community center full of 80 year olds. :indifferent:
I'm jealous.

the bike sounds cool.
I am trying to decide what gym to stick with right now. I have my account on hold at L.A. Fitness for the summer so the kids and I can enjoy the pool at lifetime fitness. Lifetime is like a little resort to me, indoor and outdoor pool, cafes, kick butt kids zone… but it’s crowded and the step aerobics instructor sucks booty. L.A. fitness is a lot cheaper, and has great step instructors, but it’s just a gym, no play involved. I don’t know which one to stick with. Glad you found one better and are enjoying it.

GUESS WHAT! I went to the YMCA for the first time today and they have those virtual exercise bikes!!

WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I jumped right on it and did an hour and man, was I sweating! Hills and everthing--which we don't have around here, so that was new experience for me. What fun though!
