INTRODUCTION
I’M AN OLD-SCHOOL FITNESS ENTHUSIAST who enjoys a no-frills gym for all my workouts. Sure, occasionally I’ll do my workouts at home or on-the-go, but about 90% of my workout regimen happens at the gym. No, I am not into CrossFit boxes, group fitness-specific clubs or state of the art gyms with a climbing wall, wrestling bear and smoothie bar. Not that I think poorly of those types of fitness establishments, it’s just that they don’t necessarily have what I want.
I just want a good workout space that is clean, safe and has friendly gym-goers that I can briefly engage with in my time. My primary reason for a workout is for my health. There was a time that I wanted to impress people with my strength, show off my bulging biceps or prowl around like I was king of the jungle. But, with years of experience and a little humility, I realized that the main reason I should go was to keep old injuries from haunting me, keep my heart in good health and manage my high-energy levels. Everything else is secondary to those three goals.
When you come between me and my workout or make it less effective that is when I have an issue. I don’t mind if you interrupt me to ask a question or greet me. I’m okay with quick socializing; after all, I’m not a complete stick-in-the-mud. Also, I’m not bothered if you have a question about whether I’m using equipment.
