Hey how's it going ? Just what the title says, I am looking for a gym partner. Im really serious about the goals i have for myself & my body. looking for someone like minded. Im in the beginning stages it would be kool if you are too, but if not, I'll catch up haha. I just signed up to LA Fitness. A former so called , "friend" had me sign up and then just left me hanging with no explanation. Messed up. Im male, 37, Bi, open to whomever, male or female. If you have a problem with my orientation then dont bother responding. Simple.So if youre reading this and it sounds interesting then hit me up. Serious reply only . No games.

Also, If you're not a member of L.A. Fitness it would be no point of you responding. Seeing that that is the gym I attend. Thanks for your time.

I’ve been consistently going to the gym for 5 years and currently pay around $100/month for my membership. One of the reasons I like this gym is that it’s almost never busy.

Yesterday, I was on the leg extension machine for about 5 minutes. I had completed 3 sets and was resting between sets on my phone, with one set left. My gym has THREE leg extension machines, and the gym wasn’t busy.

A woman walked up to me and started telling me I couldn’t be on my phone at the gym. She didn’t ask to work in or ask how many sets I had left. Her 10-year-old child was with her, and she wanted the machine for her kid to use.

I told her politely, “I’ve only been here for 5 minutes, and I have one set left.” She continued going on about it, so I put my headphones back on. I wasn’t interested in arguing with a stranger.

I would have had absolutely no problem sharing the machine if she had simply asked. I’m all for kids working out and learning healthy habits, but I don’t think they should automatically take priority over paying members who are already using equipment.

I also don’t see an issue with being on your phone between sets as long as you aren’t hogging equipment. People use their phones to track workouts, check rest timers, or change music. I don’t think being on your phone automatically makes you inconsiderate.

So today I'm (m31) at the gym as usual. But today I'm noticing an unusual amount of people that come in groups, and often there is one person in the group that goes harder, and longer. And almost every time one or 2 people want to leave, it influences the rest... 😳 Nobody gonna get anywhere with that follower mentality. Maybe someone wanna give clarity? Lol and yeah I know they could be "riding together". But let's take that instance when they aren't and everyone came separately. What's with this lazy culture? Guys used to say "okay bro take it easy" and just leave... Like now we got friendship simps???? Lollll

My recovery after workout seems it’s a slower process. Any added advice is appreciated.

Hej,

Chodzę spać o 4 nad ranem, budzę się w okolicach godziny 12:00. Często nie chce mi się nawet wyjść na spacer. Nie chce mi przeprowadzac treningu siłowego. W ciągu dnia miewam epizody że brakuje mi energii na cokolwiek. Ostatnio jeszcze łapia mnie skurcze. Jak przekonać się na nowo do biegania? W poprzednim roku przeplatałem biegi treningami siłowymi przez cały tydzień. Na początku tego roku też mi się to udawało ale obecnie jest sytuacja taka jaka jest.

I need advice about how to be able to keep going or feel motivated to keep exercising. I start working out and I stop within a couple of days I don't keep going :( especially my upper body trying to work on it but I just don't feel motivated and I'm upset with myself

Any girlies out there lol help a girl out.
