Southern California

[Lai84 4]

Hi everyone! I am almost 3 months postop and I just recently stopped going to my personal trainer. It gets expensive after a while and I realized that throughout my journey with him, since before I had my surgery, I've learned a lot to be able to sustain myself as much as possible in a gym or working out on my own. Problem is, I'm super lazy still :'( I'm looking for a workout partner. Anybody in Southern California near the Orange County area? I think working out with someone that knows where I'm coming from would be easier than working out with a bunch of meat heads gearing up for a fitness competition. I'm easily intimidated by all the "professionals" in the gym setting.

I would love to work out with you but I live too far from your home.. Plus I am a truck driver in rarely in town I am only in town every third weekend Maybe after my surgery when I come to LA we can meet and I would work out with you My surgery isn't until October 17 But good luck to you and I do understand your intimidation but will get over it.

I'm in La Mirada! Not too far. Do you have a gym membership anywhere? I'm currently shipping around for one. I'm really liking Golds Gym in Fullerton so far. It's super nice and clean and doesn't have that super crowded feel that the larger gyms have

Long Beach isn't far either! I'm by no means a runner. Although I'd like to start tackling some good hikes... My trainer would make me do lots of sprints. They are short distance, intense runs but left you feeling like you could kick some a$$! Maybe running is in our futures!

You guys maybe want to check out hiking venues for the weekend? Like every Saturday do a morning hike (or afternoon) for a couple hours?

I think I'd actually enjoy being out hiking vs stuck in a stuffy gym!

San Fernando Valley here getting sleeved on October 11th... I have a gym membership here where I live & haven't been going for the same reasons you mentioned (lazy & intimidated by the meat heads & no gym partner) lol but I'm totally down to meet up for a hike sometime!! I heard of a trail I think by El Monte they leads to a waterfall.. There's also the Hollywood sign trail, Malibu has a bunch of trails, there's a trail/stairs hike thing in culver city & Runyon canyon in w Hollywood.....
