Are my eyes playing tricks on me.

Posted by admin on March 29th, 2010

I ran into a good friend earlier today at the GYM! Yes I finally made it to the gym after over a year (imagine having a business where you charge people a monthly fee and they NEVER use your service). I had just completed my weights routine and was heading back to the other side of the gym to get some cardio done, when I heard someone (must have been loud, since I was wearing my ipod) say… “are my eyes playing tricks on me?” Like the gym, my friend was also very surprised to see me and went on for a few minutes with his theatrical ways . After a brief chat I decided that it was time to hit the treadmill and get the rest of my workout completed.

It was nice meeting up with my friend, since I now know what time he’s usually at the gym in the event I wanted to work out with him next time. Next time? You mean I have to punish myself again? Do you work out with anyone or do you find that you get a better workout when you’re by yourself? I like doing most things by myself and I have a strong feeling, working out is one of those things. I hate people having to wait for me to catch up, especially since I’m in terrible shape as compared to him and I just like doing things my way. I’m sure he’s got a routine that he already follows… yup, I’ll be doing this on my own for now.

One more comment about going to the gym and working out. Have you ever done any research on how to maximize the results you get from your workout? I spoke to a guy at a nutrition store (no he wasn’t trying to sell me anything), but after a short discussion I soon realize that my normal way for approaching my workout (in the past) was not necessarily correct. I’ve now made some changes and will be putting more emphasis into what I learned from this discussion in the coming weeks. I’ll update you if and when these changes bear any fruit.

It’s now 10.00 pm on Sunday and I have to be up early in the morning to get some work done before I can head back to the gym. Please send some positive thoughts my way so I can stick to this and not continue paying for a service that’s never used.

Have a great night all.
