The guy who hit on me was black. Thanks for the heads up about the blogdowntown series. I definitely have more reading and work to do. Diana, I think going with someone makes it a lot less intimidating and more enjoyable. Oh you and your mini-crushes. And no, I never worked out at Wooden. I'd do the track at Drake, but most of the time I just wanted to leave campus after work, class, meetings. CalacaVera, Yeah, it might've just been guys. Quien sabe. I wasn't really trying to find out. I get really weirded out when someone blatantly hits on me. Tremaine, My brother will help out. He did suggest some things before I signed up for the gym. I didn't get hit on the second time, maybe it's just a one-time only thing. Bea, Do you guys team up and go together? At least you all live sort of near each other. And I did remember the iPod. It helped! P3000, Oh I'm on it. But the yoga classes are soooo early and I like sleeping in. And I know I need to do some weight lifting too. I just want to make sure I am doing it right, hence help from the siblings. Adrian can help me out on my form. He knows stuff even if he just tells me to read a huge book. AJ, Your comments always make me smile. Wink,

Diana,
I think going with someone makes it a lot less intimidating and more enjoyable. Oh you and your mini-crushes. And no, I never worked out at Wooden. I’d do the track at Drake, but most of the time I just wanted to leave campus after work, class, meetings.

CalacaVera,
Yeah, it might’ve just been guys. Quien sabe. I wasn’t really trying to find out. I get really weirded out when someone blatantly hits on me.

Tremaine,
My brother will help out. He did suggest some things before I signed up for the gym. I didn’t get hit on the second time, maybe it’s just a one-time only thing.

Bea,

P3000,
Oh I’m on it. But the yoga classes are soooo early and I like sleeping in. And I know I need to do some weight lifting too. I just want to make sure I am doing it right, hence help from the siblings. Adrian can help me out on my form. He knows stuff even if he just tells me to read a huge book.

AJ,
Your comments always make me smile.

I would hit on you at the gym...if I ever went to one...which I won't, but you get the idea. :P I’m not surprised someone hit on you at the gym.

If you don't know much about stretching take a yoga class and basically do some of that. Stretching will help your muscles form well, heal and you will see results a lil quicker. Stretching, like yoga, makes sure everything is where it is supposed to be and working how it is supposed to be. In between the stairs, elliptical or any other cardio machine you should consider lifting some weights, muscles eat fat very fast and you don't necessarily get all buff. Light weights, and lots of reps. will also be a kind of cardio. Dont take breaks, keep moving, if you have to wait for a machine keep moving, even drop down and do sit ups while waiting. Keeping that active will keep the horndogs at bay, at least until you are done with your workout. I would recommend more time stretching, like 15-20 min, before and after.

Dave and Sandra signed up while the rest of us dusted off our membership cards and tried to remember how to work the machines! lol Keep up the good work - don't let anyone distract you and bring your IPOD - It'll help!

Thank goodness for your sister. Sounds like you had a great 1st experience though.

First day and already someone is scoping you out. In reference to wink's comment, I think the "we" was us guys. For the most part "we" prefer a little thick than too thin now-a-days. Hijole!

I got a family membership with my momma and my sister. It's been pretty good. and I have/had a mini crush on my trainer =D that's kind of weird that guy hit on you.

Interesting and funny--who is the "we" in the "that's the way we like it" statement? That's great that you are working out, good for you. There is a running series on blogdowntown recently with fitness routines and advice, it's really good, chkec it out. I’m not surprised you got hit on, you are cute.
