No more excuses.
I joined one of those 24 hour ones last week - but I'm yet to use it!!
My reason/excuse has been that I'm having to exercise alone as my friends are members of other more expensive establishments.
Best bet may be to join some classes first - get into a habit of just going.
If I'm going to continue with my intellectual endeavours with any success - I need to get my body finely tuned... Agghhhh!
Sorry for the rant

"I prefer to use a gym alone, although I'm not using an gym.
Get there, music on, do my work out, get home.
I'm not there to chat and if I can chat, I'm not working hard enough."
I'm not particularly au fait with some of the exercises I wish to do: squats/deadlifts
Also, I feel uncertain about the combinations.... Chest and back.... Shoulders and toes.... Etc etc
I'm sure it's not rocket science and there probably isn't one right way of becoming stronger, faster... I wish there was! |

Surely there will be staff who can set up a programme for you ?
The last thing they want is for you to injure yourself or worse break something 
I gave up my gym membership last year because I couldn't afford it
But I wish I was still going as I'd rather be on a treadmill today than running in this weather  |

There's a lot to it, you need to sus out your goals then apply the science to your training and eat for your gains with plenty rest, don't over train. A 4 day split is best - chest/tri's, delts/traps, lats/bi's then quads and calves. |

I've given myself 3 days to start with.... 2 in the week and one weekend...
Will try a class tonight... Get in the groove.
My goals are all round fitness...
Strength, stamina and flexibility.
Looks like you've got your regime sussed! |
