My Groupon to Healthworks is up this week and during my 5 weeks of gym membership I've discovered an important thing: I actually enjoy working out. I mean, I enjoy working out to the fact that I found myself waking up at 5:30am and driving 20 miles to Chestnut Hill just because I enjoy the high I get afterwards. I enjoy the fact that I can drink my Guiness, graze at BBQ's, and actually lose weight thanks to my new relationship with the elliptical. In my personal and professional life I dedicate myself to everything and everyone; a gym membership gives me back 3 hours a week of me time. It's the only time that I get to put on my headphones, go hard, and work on myself with zero distractions.
As much as I enjoy my workouts, I know that driving to Chestnut Hill 3x a week was ok for a short while but it's definitely not a long term solution. Since I work out of the house I'd ideally like to go at lunch, which is not possible unless I join something a bit more local. Rather than just join a random gym, I actually did a bunch of Internet research and set up appointments to tour 3 local facilities.
In the end, I found my perfect solution: a new gym near my house with TV's on every piece of equipment. I'm popping over at some point today to sign all the paperwork so I can get back into my routine tomorrow.
