Do you workout in front of your family?

or friends? roommates, etc?


I ask, because I realized long ago, I am embarrassed to workout in front of people I know, or a lot of people. That's why I rarely go to the "big" gym (as in the kind you pay an arm for, for the membership). I loved running at my old apt, because I could in the dark (no lights, only lighted by lights from outside), and no one was really there. I also would do my aerobic tapes at home.


Well, now that I'm living with K full-time, I doubt I'll ever do any sort of workout at home. I don't like to. Even when living with my folks, I'd either exercise before they came home, or upstairs (where no one was around). I noticed the gym is further than the one at my old apt, so I don't wanna walk there. I also noticed, there are too many good looking skinny ppl at my apt complex. lol. That intimidates me.


So, I just wondered, for those that are like this, what have your solutions been? I don't have enough time to workout after K leaves in the morning, and he's home before me. I can hit the gym, just need to get past the whole "far and beautiful ppl" thing.


Or am I alone on this one? lol.

That I don't look as good as the 18 year olds at the gym, but I sure as heck don't see THEIR moms there!


That I may not look fantastic WHILE I'm working, but I feel like a goddess AFTER! LOL


Very good points. That's
