Usually the startup fees are pretty horrible.
There's a YMCA up the street from me. I might give them a call and see what they talking about.

edit: I just called the YMCA and they want 100 up front and $35/month taken out electronically.

that's not bad. Take a tour and see if you like the place. Usually, YMCA's are pretty clean with newer machines.


I pay $47 a month. :sad:

walking is a great cardio starter if u havent been exercising.... shoot for an hour a night..walk fast enough to talk but not get winded.. before u weight lift u have to warm the muscles up, loosen them up.. so get moving on a treadmill for about 10 mins..when u lift or use machines, exhale on the exertion that will prevent straining and help with correct form..stretch after u r done that will help lean out the muscle..cardio is what gets the belly fat off men and women..diet has alot to do with getting the belly fat off..u r what u eat in reference to belly fat..

You might be able to get a discount on that, depending on how much you make. Did you ask them if it gets any cheaper?

Check to see if your company participates in Global Fit (http://www.globalfit.com). Also, do you have a bike? If so, ride Kelly Drive. You are not that far at all and it is a good cardio. You could do West River too.

I've been slacking. I haven't worked out in like a month. Messed up my wrist, then got sick. Maybe this week.

Don't hop on a bench press machine and go for it all. Get on the machine, add some weight, and focus on your form. If you're all over the bench grunting and squirming, you'll really hurt yourself.




Have you seen a dr about this yet?
Good advice Andrew. Jae you need to go very slow especially with this injury and get to a doctor asap.

There have to be less expensive gyms around. Take a look around and see what you find.
