So I decided last night I was going to go to the gym this morning and do an upper body workout with the weight machines. My husband looks at me like I am crazy..lol.. he knows how much I hate the gym. He said, you do realize even though you are going before work it will still be packed in there. I said I know, I am trying to get over my dislike of working out in a crowed gym.
Well I tried. I did not like it. I don't know why I thought it would be different. I felt so awkward using the machines and I was never able to really focus or get in a good grove. I am just going to stick to doing my own workouts at home on days I am not running. I can do push ups, squats, sit ups, ect.. Maybe it would feel better if I had a friend to go with me, but I don't, so I am not going back.

@Apple1.. does your gym offer a free personal training session? If so, maybe you can sign up for one and they can show you around. I wish gyms spent more time showing people how to use equipment properly.
In any case, you gotta do what works for you. You're already working out, and the most successful regimen is the one you'll stick with long term. Besides, I think doing squats, pushups, and other bodyweight exercises gives better results than any machine can. You got this!
