Moire joined a gym. And since she doesn’t have comments, I’ll respond to her here: Kickass! Don’t fret, it’ll all be cool. I was scared before my training session last week, but trust me, it’ll be worth it.

And as for the shower thing, I’m lucky because I live about two minutes walk from the gym. I just wear my workout clothes there and then come home and shower. No fuss. You can always do that if you need to.
I did have slight locker room embarrassment at my London gym. But not for myself, because I managed to stay fairly covered. But there are women there who just love to PARADE around the locker room stark naked. And they’re usually the marathon-runner types who look like skeletons. Scary. Just keep your eyes on the floor. 🙂

I guess it’s midday there. I’m just off to bed…

LOL! Damn… I plan on going during lunchbreak, when the gym is relatively empty, so I’m hoping I won’t run into any of those marathon-running skeleton women. It’ll still take me a long time to get used to the whole locker room deal…
Thanks for the support, Kris! Justin had to give me a pep talk last night, too. I’m just nervous and thinking about it too much. I am excited, too, and anxious to start. I go get my evaluation tomorrow!
And I really should get myself a comments box or something. 😉

the last time i showered in a gym was probably my junior year of high school after swimming and i was probably still in my bathing suit. me, i just work out when i can go home in my skuzzies and shower in private.
what i really don’t get are those women who carry on whole conversations in the buff. i especially feel bad for those who are clothed that get stuck talking with nekkid chatty cathy. wrap yourself in a towel for god’s sake!

At my London gym it was even worse, because they had this little bathrrom troll woman who’d come through and mop every ten minutes. She’d just stare. I learned to get dressed in about 10 seconds. Seriously, showering at home is THE way to go.
Don’t stress about the evaluation. I went to mine rehearsing all sorts of stuff to say to the guy about how pathetically unfit I am, but I didn’t need to. He was just excited that I took the step and wanted to help me do as much as possible. Hopefully yours is a nice one too.

I’m very sick and busy with work today, and can’t make my evaluation!
=(
In happier news: I did finally put the ability to leave comments on my site.

Now go to the damn gym. 🙂
