Good for you! That's a wonderful
start.
I make the most out of my gym by using
their cedar sauna. I love it! It is
quiet and gets me sweating before my
workout. Or sometimes, I just use it
solo with a cold shower in between 15
minute seatings. There is a weekly
tradition in russia of using sauna...Good
for circulation and heart.
I also try to get to fun classes led by
instructors. Not sure if there are any
classes where you are...But my gym has
dance/salsa/aerobics, spinning, and yoga.
I tried something new.
One thing I try to do when I go, is smile.
Ever notice how serious people are in
the gym? I like to take myself lightly
there...It can be so intimidating.
Hope this helps! Send word with a reply!

Thanks for that there are different
classes at the gym I attend there is yoga,
body combat, aerobics etc. The is also a
place to have a massage and a steam room
and sauna. So I may take your advice and
give the sauna a go!!!!!
