Gym = therapy session. Well, it is for most I think. Doesn't mean you couldn't have a workout partner. Idk, women who workout together are different from guys who workout together I think.

Usually when I see women who have decided to pair up, they spend a great deal of time talking and not focusing on their workout. Whenever I pair up with a buddy, we may not even be on the same floor let alone chatting away ... unless there's something specific that one of us is showing the other how to do.

I've only ever seen a select few very disciplined women who knew each other but focused on their workout more than building their relationship as friends.

My personal fav is going to the gym with someone with a similar schedule (ie: a coworker) as motivation to GET there (thats where my motivation falls flat sometimes). But when I get there I want us to do our own thing. It worked out perfect for me and a coworker once to get our asses to the gym without being all chit-chatty. I want my music and thats it.

To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

hahah thats kels gym. She loves it. She was like "today I did crunches next to Micheal Kors" her fav designer, and "2 weeks ago I was on the treadmill next to gwen stefani...." and the list goes on. My hair stylist is right next door and the place looks realllly nice, but a bit much imo.

But you got there...that's what counts. My lazy ass NEVER goes. Can we start a "GYM SUPPORT GROUP" thread or something to encourage people to start working out and help those that already are? It might help to have motivation and a place to check in with others about progress. You guys have all inspired me to start dragging my ass to the gym

Once you start going you'll feel guilty not going, plus you feel bad physically if you don't go...I get sluggish.
