(35,437 posts)At the gym I go to, it's more of a social scene than a gym. People go there to see and be seen. It makes it difficult for me to get into a pattern of exercising because I have to wade through the crowds of people standing around and chit chatting with their trainers or talking to their friends instead of actually working.
I either have to get up early in the morning or go to the gym late at night. I can never work out right after work because it's packed with people who want to text their friends while they sit on a machine.
Like you, the gym for me is work. It's not fun. It's hard, unpleasant work, and I get frustrated and angry when I cannot find a spot to stretch out because someone is talking about their stupid lives with their trainer while sitting on the mats.
