Looking for Sunday workouts
I've sobbed again and again about finding a great Sunday class. I am happy with my during the week classes, but there are none on Sunday. For a year, I’ve been buying Groupons and whereas I’ve gotten great deals, I haven’t found any place that I’d want to go back to. I’ve been toying with the idea of going back to The New…

Showering BEFORE the gym? What?
I actually heard a few of the ladies in my class talk about how people smell and that they should be showering BEFORE the gym. Really? I get up at 5 something as it is, and I walk 20 minutes in the cold - how sick would I get if I did that !!!

How many kinds of Zumba are there, anyway ?
First, there was Zumba. Then Latin Zumba. And African Zumba. Then I bought a Groupon for Aqua Zumba. And a friend said she did Chair Zumba. Will this madness never end ?

Which small blender for smoothies with ice ?
I doubt my knockoff Magic Bullet is going to crush ice for me. What do you use for your smoothies that contain ice and/or frozen fruit?

Bought a boxing deal, am the oldest one there ....
I'm 47 and I'm the oldest one in the beginner's class. :( I guess boxing is a young person's sport.

Athlete's foot remedies, anyone ?
I read some God-awful remedies on Yahoo; doesn't anyone just rinse their socks with vinegar anymore?

How often to wash yoga mat & weight gloves?
Anyone ?

Fun workouts - I signed up for Striptease !!!!
I hear it's all the rage, after bellydancing and Zumba. But how embarrasing is it, that I'm borrowing the shoes FROM MY DAUGHTER.

Do you ever go to the gym and just stand around ?
Newbie got screamed at in class today; she came late, just stood there & instructor got really angry. If that had been me I would have DIED.

Could weakness in the foot lead to other things?
I had a gout attack at the end of August and while the pain went away, that area was swollen for a while, and then itchy .... I'm thinking it must be Athlete's Foot and bought cream for that. Cost $20 but less than a podiatrist's visit. (Not that I'm ruling out a dr's visit, mind you ...)

I need major Water Bottle Help !!!
I'm having a Water Bottle Crisis. :( Sometimes - but not always, my water bottle falls over and drenching my coat and workout clothes, as well as my towel and whatever else is in my bag. I take the bus to the gym and have to walk home in these wet clothes and it's still winter here ! Anyone ? Thanks.

Has anyone beaten Wrist Pain?
It just sort of started hurting and got progrssively worse. My dr said to just lay off of it, my trainer gaveme exercises; nothing helped. Of coruse the chiropractor wants to do God-knows-what to my neck and spine; I got the Heck out of there. So - has anyonehad wrist pain and gotten better ? Thanks !

Do your toenails break at the gym ?
I thought it was due to having pedicures, but I'm pretty sure that it's the intense pressure from the jump rope class that's causing a split right in the middle. And it's nasty! Anyone ?

Surprised that vegan instructor doesn't care if we wear leat
It all-of-a-sudden hit me that one of my favorite instructors, being a vegan, might not appreciate our leather sneakers, etc. When I asked her, she siad that it really didn't bother her!!!

Should I treat myself to gorgeous workout gloves ?
I wear them almost every day so they have to be washed weekly, and I only wash full laundry loads, so I am in the market for a new pair or 2. Years ago, I mistakenly bought an expensive pair from England but I DO love them. I got a cheap pair from Whole Foods and never liked them ... I don't want anything plain or black…

Spinning "pain"
I'm spinning for more than 8 months and you'd think I'd be used to the ... uncomfortableness ... by now. I thought to buy a seat cover but decided against it; I wear padded pants and even tuck a sanitary bad in there, but sometimes it's just not ... comfortable! I hate to be indelicate but ... does anyone think it could be…

Where do you buy your cross trainers (sneakers) ?
It seems as though regular running shoes are everywhere, but since I take classes, I need trainers for the back and forth movement. I hate the small, white selection at Modell, and Foot Locker has hardly any either. I have bought on shoebuy.com, amazon, and lately zapos.com. Does anyone have any luck with brick-and-morter…

Suck it, people !!!!
I'm pretty new here and while I can't use all the tools that our site has to offer, since I'm not actively dieting, I DO want to share something with you all ....about 3 years ago I joined a gym that was sort of like "the baby sister" of gyms - it offered very few classes and very few machines. I did well there, being that…

Gym lock - combination or lock ?
I don't know where my combination lock is and I'm not happy about that. I need to buy a new lock in a hurry so I need to make up my mind. What do you all think - is it harder to stick your combination (in case of a senior moment) in your sneaker, or do you carry a key ?
-
Do whole grains bother your stomach ?
I don't want to be indelicate, but it seems as though I can't really digest whole wheat or other (dark) grains. Is that ... weird ?
-
Do you rent a locker at your gym ?
I do not, and they aren't that big anyway - and I use several different branches. I love the big lockers that I sometimes see, though - I always have soooo much stuff to leave in there !!!
-
Do your sneakers match your workout clothes ?
I guess that should the last thing I worry about, but it's not true - I love pretty colors and looking put together. Am I the only one ?
