Going To The Gym

There are so many possibilities.

Going To The Gym

Going to the gym can be a difficult thing. You have to be motivated to go. If you are not motivated, it can be hard to go, especially if you live far away. If you live closer, it is easier to get to the gym by car or by walking.

Going to the gym with a buddy can motivate you the most. They can push you to do better. You and your friend can make each other want to do more. Finding a friend who will work out with you can be a struggle, but after you do, it can be great.

When I was in high school, I went to the gym, but I did not like going. When I got there, it was OK, but I was not motivated to go, so I hardly went. It was not my favorite pastime. So after a while, my membership to the gym was canceled. Although this summer I decided to go back to the gym and now I like going.

There are so many things you can do at the gym. There are lots of cardio machines, ab machines, arms and legs machines. You can do all of them: arm workout one day, legs the next and cardio and abs the following day. That would be a great way to do all of the machines.

I like going to the different machines every time; of course, I have the same machines I go on regularly, but I like going to different ones also.

There are always great ways you should go to the gym, such as: losing weight, getting exercise and making you feel better. People like to feel good about themselves, so they like to look good, so they go to the gym.

The reason I think I didn’t like the gym in high school is because I thought people would judge me for what I was doing, so it wasn’t fun for me, but now I don’t care if people are judging me for what I’m doing. Everyone is just concerned about what they are doing. There are lots more machines I like now also.

Going to the gym can help you get your mind off things. It can help clear your mind of everything. You can just put music in your ears and zone out and go to a place that is good for you.

The only thing that bothers me about the gym is the people who just sit on the machines and do nothing or doing something on their phone like talking or texting. It is amazing how many of those people are there at the gym.

It is a great thing going to the gym. You get to get your mind off things, you can lose some weight and you may get a new perspective on things after you leave the gym. I am glad I got back to the gym to help me out in life. Everyone goes to the gym for their own personal reason, and they should be extremely proud of themselves.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
