  I don't like gyms D:
  The first and last time I went to one, some big hairy muscly guy kept checking me out. It was scary.

  
  
  Should've started some casual conversation.

  WORK IT! >:D
  
  One advice: If you're gonna do some weights, remember to take it slow. A lot of people do it fast, but you burn more muscle mass if you do 2 seconds pull, 4 seconds release. Be sure to take breaks, like every other day and maybe keep weekends off, as chock said your muscles need to recuperate lol.

  
  
  Haha, sounds good! I like the weekends off part too. :)
  
  I wanna lose some weight (15 lbs) by the end of this summer! Is that a reasonable goal? I weigh 180 lbs.
  
  That should get rid of most of my belly fat. :onionru:

  The most important part of exercise is making and sticking to the routine. If you can't even do that, gym is useless.

  
  And you should change your routine every 4-6 weeks.
