Just joined gym- clueless with weights
Hi all. I just joined a gym so that I can have access to the strength training machines and weights. I went there today and I was so overwhelmed/lost. I've always done cardio (running). I have a treadmill in my house. I do 2-3 miles approx 5x per week and that has always been the extent of my exercise. I plan to continue…

135 to 126

New friends (not too much to lose)
Hi all, Looking for new friends. I'd love some friends with similar goals (or unsimilar is fine too) so we can cheer eachother on. I exercise daily.
