As I walk into into the gym nervousness is rushing through me like a bullet. Out of the corner of my eye I spot my besties. “Hey besties, I didn’t know you were coming!” I exclaim. “Why wouldn’t we come?” They reply. “I don’t know, I just thought you guys weren’t into this type of stuff.” I say. “ We aren’t we just know that you are so fun and crazy, you would make the night fun.” they say as I blush a little.” “Thanks, you guys are the best.” We all say as we have a group hug. Out of the corner of my eye I see my crush dancing like on of those inflatables that squirm around in front of car dealerships. “Omg, he’s here!” I yell. They roll their eyes at me. My friends and I love snacks, so we couldn’t wait to check out the snack

    1485 Words  | 3 Pages

    Have you ever been looking forward to hitting the gym only to find that your confidence begins to circle the drain as soon as you start your warm-up? Well, you are not alone in what is now known as gymtimidation. This newly coined phrase is being used to describe the confidence crash that many gym-goers experience every time that they work out in a public gym. For men, the confidence crash comes once they find themselves lifting weights next to a body-builder wannabe. Women may dread the prospect of appearing out of shape or of looking clueless around the weights and other equipment. Regardless of the reason, giving into gymtimidation only means that the road to personal fitness goals will be bumpy and difficult. So, how do you combat this? How do you make yourself comfortable in an environment that should facilitate a positive experience?

  • Personal Narrative: I Went To The Gym

    497 Words  | 1 Pages

    I used to go to the gym on a regular basis; then, due to our finances, my mother cancelled our family membership. Giving up on working out was not an option because I had been exercising my whole life. In frustration, I went out to my backyard. I tried thinking about where else I could go to continue training my body, and after seeing a variety of items lying around everywhere, I realized that I did not need to go anywhere. Everything I needed was right in front of me. I quickly transformed my backyard into my gym. Cinder Blocks and buckets of water functioned as dumbbells. Old heavy logs that were sitting and collecting dust became bars to bench press with. In place of a treadmill, I used a long strip of grass that ran across the side of the vicinity to do sprints. I made heavy workout rope out of a hose that I filled with sand. After converting many other ordinary objects into exercising equipment, it became clear to me that there is no machine or gear in the gym that I cannot recreate in my backyard.

It's not the actual physical building, but rather the events that have occurred there over the years. It's where I have formed some of my closest friendships. It is the place I have invested years of hard work for many of my accomplishments. To some it may seem odd that a place associated with sweat, blood and physical pain mean so much to someone. However, in my eyes it's almost like a second home.
