My New Year's Resolution this year is to live a healthier lifestyle. In 2015, I worked out a whopping zero times (this should be a world record!) and I could definitely feel the toll that it was taking on my body. I can honestly say that I felt like an 80-year-old 18-year-old, and that is what genuinely spurred me to take my health into my own hands. Since then, I have been (trying) to work out every day. Although some days are harder than others, it has definitely made me feel better about myself. I have also become an expert on people watching from the elliptical. Here are the 11 kinds of people I encounter at the gym.

1. The Former High School Jock.

You know him. You love him. You hate him. You probably had a secret crush on him in high school. Former high school jock still loves to stay fit even though he didn't make it onto the UT basketball team. But he is not a bad view. Let me tell you that.

2. The Girl Who Doesn't Sweat.

No-sweat girl is perfect. No-sweat girl can run, lift, rock climb and Zumba, and not a hair will fall out of place. I don't know how she does it, but if you are a no-sweat girl, please let me in on your secret.

3. The Lanky Boy.

You see him every time you're at the gym. And your heart goes out to him. Because despite his valiant efforts and noble perseverance, he just doesn't seem to be making any gains. He might actually even be making negative gains. Does he look skinnier than he did yesterday? Poor, poor lanky boy.

4. The Face Maker.

The face maker is one of your favorite people to watch, for this very reason. He has an endless array of ways he can twist and turn his face. You can't look away.

5. The Determined Girl.

Determined girl is the girl I strive to be. She is laser focused, disciplined and gets the most out of her workout every single time. There is never a minute where she takes a breather, because determined girl knows that every second counts.

6. The Wheezer.

The wheezer does not fare well in the gym. Someone get him his inhaler. His breathing issues have followed him for the majority of his life, but it gets exponentially worse when he tries to get on the treadmill.

7. The Gym Cheats.

The gym cheats get the majority of their satisfaction from knowing that they at least "went" to the gym. They take it slow, make up fictional exercises and are overall very happy people.

8. The Meatheads.

The word "gains" comes up at least 20 times a day for these guys. They take their gym time (a little too) seriously. Also, you are secretly getting concerned that if their arms get any bigger, they might explode.

9. The One-Timers.

The one timers were bored that Sunday afternoon and decided to go to the gym in order to fill the lapse in time. But once they actually get to the gym, they remember why they are one timers in the first place.

10. The Music Junkies.

The music junkies of the world get way too into whatever is currently playing on their iPod. Nine out of 10 times you can catch them singing along to every word or busting out the occasional move.

11. The Overly Sexy Girl.

The overly sexy girl loves to flaunt her body at the gym. She thrives in short shorts and sports bras that are a size too tight for her. We get it. You're hot.

Whether you are one, some or none of these types of people at the gym, the mere fact that you pushed yourself out of your bed to go is praiseworthy enough. Take a moment and soak in your awesomeness (and sweat).
