    When I see older people at the gym, I tell myself that I will be exactly like them when I get older too. It makes me happy to see that they still got it and inspires me to stay on the track I am on!!

    KUDOS TO YOU! I know I am going to be going to the gym for as long as I can stand up by myself! Fitness isnt just for the youth ;D

    :) That's awesome! Makes me feel better, I always feel awkward around the super athletes at the gym.

    Good for you. Glad you didn't walk out that door. It's a very hard thing to do and you overcame and
    had a good workout on top of it. Keep it up.

    You are just young longer than those bunnies. Good for you!

    You GO girl! I'm almost 50, and I go to a small co-ed gym. It can be intimidating for me to go into where the machines are because there's always a bunch of young dudes back there lifting wts. Just tonight I went out of my comfort zone, and in between my treadmill and elliptical workout, went to the assisted pull-up machine and did a couple sets. I think that pretty much everyone is so into doing their own thing, and most people have their ipods on and aren't really paying any attention to what everyone else is doing. Us old ladies can still rock it!! :tongue: Naomi
