These past few weeks I’ve been feeling very down and out. I was not satisfied with my body and my stress levels were through the roof. So I decided that it was best to join a gym once again. After being treated horribly by both New York Sports Club and Crunch (for the second time), I decided to go with New York Health and Racquet Club. They even gave me a free smoothie for signing up, which I’m positive, was not one of the bonuses for joining. The staff was really friendly and the facilities are great. An interesting bonus I found when signing up was that there were no one price for one gym and another price for having access to all the gyms. The one price covered it all. Although the gym that’s across the street from my house does not have a steam room, which I adore, it does have a boulder rock and a whirlpool. The other locations all have pools and steam rooms I can def. use. The only concern I truly have is the monthly fee, which is a bit steep for me, but considering what I would be getting, nice staff, great equipment, pool, whirlpool, bouldering rock, I think it’s worth it. I would definitely pay more for a place I feel truly comfortable in than a place I despise with rude staff and a fee for using their towels.
In other news, I’m hoping that by signing up to the gym and getting in regular exercise I can let go of some stress and excess poundage. I must admit that I am still bored, lost, and so apathetic about a lot of things. My days still consist of just going to work and coming back home but I’m hoping that I can soon change that.
