Esme
Gin and tonic please!
Hello everybody,
So last year my scary challenge was to join SW, and after finding the right group for me it was the best thing I could have done.
This year I mean business, and want to boost my losses and tone up those unfortunate bits with more exercise.
I've also FINALLY paid off my debts, so have a bit of extra cash which I want to put towards a Virgin Active gym membership (just around the corner from me - no excuses!).
What I want to find out is: Is the gym as terrifying as I imagine? I have images of communal changing rooms (more scary a thought than any exercise bike!) and my own sweaty self in classes alarming all the locals. I know I shouldn't care but it's not that easy is it?
Are all these gym nightmares in my head? Is the gym a - dare I say it - friendly place? Or are we forced into neon lycra and not allowed to leave until we touch our toes?
Any input much appreciated!
