Finally got a gym membership after 3 years

Had been considering joining a gym for like 3 years now, on and off. My brain keeps re-prioritizing it. Finally got around to get one. Planning to go in today.

That's great, do you have a program in mind or were you gonna look for a trainer?

Since this is my first foray into a gym. I'd stick with cardio for a while before even looking at weights. Baby steps.

Weights are great because as a newbie If you even brush against a barbell or some dumbbells you're gonna grow like a weed. It's very satisfying

Can we get a progress update

Yessir! Going to the gym with a routine plan almost 5 days a week. Swim on alternate days, with upper body, cardio and mix exercises during the other days. Didn't think I'd start looking forward to spending time in the gym.

Hell yeah keep it up brother. Some of my health problems just melt away when I'm regular in the gym

I've been working out at home, but I'm considering joining a gym as well. I'm glad you were able to do it!
