As many of you already know, I try to make it down to Planet Fitness in Watertown 2-3 times per week. I am a bit of a night owl, which works well for me at the gym because it is usually slow and I do not have to compete or wait for equipment. The gym is open 24/7. I am considering starting up a workout group. This isnt your traditional wake up at 5am and drag your still half sleeping butt out in freezing weather (in the northern New York winter). Dont get me wrong, I respect the hell out of those folks, but it just isnt for me. And I figure there have to be other people out there that feel the same way. Winter is coming.... lol. I dont really feel like packing on more winter weight again this season. Maybe you work second shift or food & beverage and cant get to the gym before that time? Maybe you dont like big crowds who may or may not be judging you for being plump? Your reasons are your reasons and youll get no judgement here. Does this sound like something any of my family and friends would like to do? I will be glad to help you learn the machines, set up a basic workout program and give you pointers on your diet.(Dont judge a book by its cover, I am a few credits shy of a degree in Nutrition, so I know food pretty well.) Depening on feedback maybe we can personally challenge and push each other to reach our personal goals? I am in NO WAY making claims that I am a personal trainner, dietician, doctor or coach. We can all help each other be you young, old, fat, skinny, purple, whatever. Lets take away the intimidation of going to the gym. I have a professional digital scale that can weigh up to 550lbs accurately, if you require a way to track your weight. You will need to have a Planet Fitness Memebership (as cheap as $10 a month, less than $1 per trip), Gym Sneakers & Lock (minimum). I think I would like to shoot for a 10-11pm start time on Tuesday, Thursday and possibly Sunday. This will depend on what works best for folks. Personal message me with your thoughts. I hope to get a few of you out there with me. After your first couple trips, you will look forward to it, I promise. I will be there tomorrow night for anyone who wants to just show up and say hello.
