Joining a gym and getting fit.

[kev]

I know what you all going to say but I think its about time I start exercising.

I am looking for somebody who lives near bracknell or readding who wants to come along to a gym with my 2-3 nights a week.

I would go on my own but I think if I have somebody with me I would achieve more.

If your not sure you will be able to afford to go or you dont know if you have the time dont say you will do it.

I'd love to Kev but I don't live anywhere near you and I'm far to lazy!

You can train just as well in your own home with a few simple things like some free weights and a chin up bar or a rafter of some sort.
This way you'll save money.
Be more motivated because you won't have an excuse not to go when you can do it in the comfort of your own home.
You won't be rushed by the brick sh*t houses waiting for you to get off the machine.
You get a better workout using free weights etc. then using the machines at the gym that do most of the work for you.
You can prepare your meals and have them right away, which is quite important.......there 70% of your training.

I'm sure a lot of people here have heard of Joe Calzaghe? The super middleweight champion? 36 wins, no draws, no losses.
He doesn't use any machines or weights, just basic things like running, press ups, sit ups, skipping etc.
Considering his record and how he looks, he's got to be doing something right.

I used to go to a gym, personally didn't get on with it as I'm weird and don't like being around other people, let alone doing exercise and crap there, so ended up not going lol

But I agree with the above, you'd probably be better of making up a home gym, start off with basic stuff and increase it over the time, then you can work out when you want etc..

I've been thinking about joining a gym but I have no one to go with. I feel If I go by myself I won't push myself. I'll just loo kat everything and walk away!
If I have someone with me I'd probably do that bit extra and maybe actually do something.
Might just get a few weights and things and do something at home.

Thinking about it, when I went to the gym on my own down here in Portsmouth, I barely did anything and stayed for short periods of times.

When I was in Wales however, I used to go to the gym all the time with my cousin and it was like a competition every time lol always pushing it, doing that extra bit and generally worked out for an hour or two.

So best go with someone else then I guess.

Hiya,
I go to the John Nike Leisure Centre gym on tues + thurs lunchtimes - you're welcome to come along if you're nearby. I'll give you a race on the exercise bikes!
I used to go to the Loddon Valley one by Asda Lower Earley in the evenings but since having the nipper in Oct I just don't have time, but I can deffo recommend it as a friendly well equipped place.
Have fun!
Cath

Please see the title, it says to get fit, you ar all giving him advice to set up a home gym with pull up bars etc. but that is for muscular training!

If you want too get fit, get a decent mountain bike and thrash that, or if you prefer the gym, meet sv_cath at the john nike leisure centre(When i watched ali g they were gonna knock it down, spose they decided against that!) I live in salisbury(30 mins away on a303, but i am already a member of LA fitness so
