New Gym! New Start!

I walked into Gold’s Gym and the vibe I got as soon as I walked in wasn’t the best. I ask the lady at the desk if I could get a tour. She said you can walk around yourself. WHAT? I have to show myself around? No one is going to help me? I’m not the type that likes to be bombarded with sales people, but c’mon I will have questions about the facility and at least act like you care about me becoming a customer. So I walked around with my boyfriend and I didn’t like what I saw. Yeah it was cheap, but it wasn’t a good fit for me. I knew I wouldn’t enjoy going there & all in all, I want to ENJOY my workouts.

So I had a backup plan, Bally Total Fitness. I went in there and the vibe was way better. Kevin walked me around, told me about the place and tried to sell it to me. I felt pressured into signing in because there was a “One Day Sale”. Don’t get me wrong. I liked the place and it was a nice deal, but I wasn’t 100% sold on it. Not the missing piece to my puzzle.

I came home & thought about it. Finally the decision was made - BOSTON SPORTS CLUB! I know a lot of you were not for BSC because of the price, but I think it’s worth it. I love the facility, the people are very helpful, lots of classes, it’s convenient to my house & when I hop off the train from work it’s RIGHT THERE! Another thing that it came down to was motivation. My boyfriend motivates me and gives me that extra push that I need.

So I got a workout after I signed up on the bike & on my lower body. My boyfriend KICKED my butt (my own personal trainer). My legs are already sore on top of the soreness from Kickboxing yesterday. I love it though. I can’t wait to workout tomorrow!

    aw, you must have been at a bad golds gym. There’s like, six in the area I live in and they’re all so different. Mine is great and has cardio cinema, but some of the others are small and dingy and unfriendly. I’m glad you found what works for you!
