I could even walk there. (once I know the way) I didn't know it was soooooooooo close to my aunt's house. When I lived in cali before, I was a member of this gym chain, but that gym was located in the next town, Los Osos. I think it's so cool that it is so close. I really would walk there in the future. (I don't think my aunt would ever let me walk, though. She is real protective of me and won't let me walk by myself anywhere.)
Now that I'm older, I no longer do much free weights. I am lazy to change the weight and carry those heavy weight plates. I do plan on doing some dumbbell exercises, though. but this time, I just stuck to the machines where I can simply change the weight with a slight move of the pin. I was glad to see that this gym had quite a lot of select-the-weight machines. In fact, there was more than enough to get a full body workout.
Besides all the machines, there are many cardio machines from bikes to rowers to treadmills, etc. I just like to warm up at the beginning of each workout.. only for a few minues.. maybe 5 at the most. My uncle just did a longer session of cardio on one of the recumbent bikes.
and besides having not 1, not 2, but three full sets of dumbbells and more than a few racks. (like power racks and also smith machines) there were all these free weights..
So, on top of more than a complete selectorized machines AND that cardio section AND all the free weights, they had a cool adult jungle gym where u can do stuff like pullups or dips, etc.
There was even a handicap bathroom I could use if I wanted, but there is also the usual locker rooms, that I didn't even look at.
I am excited about this new gym. I feel more motivated to go now that I have a partner. (well, my uncle doesn't do the weights, but is happy just to do the stationary bike for a longer time, but still, to have someone to always go to the gym with is ALL GOOD!)
