Gym Rat



On January 18, 2010, Melodie, Sarah and I "changed our lives." We finally got gym passes to 24. I have not regretted it once. Whenever we don't have anything to do, we go to the gym instead of shopping or watching a movie or something. It's really great. Some of my favorite things about the gym include but are not limited to:

*Watching the Biggest Loser while doing cardio for 2 hours.

*The man who wears jean cut off shorts (which are unbelievably short, mind you), a tank top and a curly pony tail.

*The time Sarah and I were on the stair climbers and I look over and she is running up the stairs. I thought she was just really working it, so I was way proud of her. Then I look over again and she is hunched over on the top of it laughing. It turns out the machine malfunctioned, and started going ridiculously fast, and she couldn't hit the button to stop. So, she had to jump on top of it to finally turn it off. We were laughing SO hard!

*Right after this story happened, Sarah left the machine because she had just run up a million stairs at such a fast pace, and I couldn't stop laughing to myself. Then I would laugh even more thinking about what a dork I looked like laughing to myself.

*When I climbed 100 flights of stairs

*Listening to an unbelievable great mix of music

*Going to the yoga classes and being able to do the hard poses

*Being able to lift more than the boys sometimes

*Watching the girls that just stare at the boys the whole time. Puh-lease.

*When I biked a dang marathon

*Seeing the girls that come in all dolled-up. You know this is a gym, right?

*Trying out all the new machines

*The time the old man came up to me and told me I was on the machine backwards. No, actually I'm not. Thanks.

*Seeing the results of working out so much. Yes, I am starting to get a six pack, and my biceps are huge. I love it.

Anyway, I have been so happy ever since I got a gym membership. I recommend it to EVERYONE. In fact, if you want to try it out, let me know and I can email you a 24 day pass for free. It's seriously the best.

oh the good times. Other good ones:
The Yoga man... yikes.
That kid that always seems to want the same machine that you are on. puh-lease.
But the guy with the cut off jean shorts is my all time favorite!
