Today is a new day. I have joined a gym in town, I’m calling it the “Because” and not the “Y” due to the fact that its more proactive. (wait for it to sink in…. a thank you, courtesy of Sam and Ryan) By joining the YMCA BEFORE the holidays I’m trying to get ahead of the pack on the New Years resolution game. Although the social situation that is your local workout place of choice is an odd one to be sure. You know the guys that lift a weight once every 15 minutes so that they can look tough and manly.. or the women who get all dolled up and strut in front of the whole place only to get a drink of water and supposed towel off from the non existent work out that they just had. Meanwhile those of us who want to sweat and not enter the fashion show are forced to deal and politely ignore the other crowd. What a work out.
