What to do at the Gym

I love working out, I actually enjoy it.  To me working out is a big stress relief from work and school.  I go to Life Time Fitness in Canton, Michigan.  The reason I love this Gym is because its super clean, great inside and outside pool and lots of room to work out.  Great Zumba classes and Kickboxing classes.  If you had never tried a Zumba class you are missing a lot.  It's a form of workout that involves dancing, the music is awesome.  If you love zumba, you should also go see Robin at The Forum Center in Westland.  She is so good at it and she actually makes you have fun while working out.  The best work out is in the morning but with spring classes and working 40 hours a week, I been going late at night whenever I get the chance.  Usually I walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes, than off to the Elliptical for another 30 minutes.  After an hour of Cardio work out I hit the weights.  I do legs, arms and chest weight.  For legs I usually do 50 lbs, arms and chest I do 35 lbs.  When I have a bad day I usually hit the pool and swim.  I love swimming, I am very good at it.  When I was younger I use to wish that I can live in the sea or the beach.  The best feeling you can get is when you are done working out and you are all sweats and pain but it feels like a big accomplishment.  They say the best thing is to work out five hours a week, I say work out as much as you can wherever you can.  The biggest challenge is eating healthy while working out.  You must eat lots of Protein and Fiber.  Eat lots of vegetables and lots of fruits and most importantly do not eat after 6 pm.  The rush I get from working out is way better than eating a piece of cake or ice cream in a hot summer day.  Right now my goal is to lose 10 lbs, its been hard especially since I work over 40 hours a week and go to school full time, but I am determine to lose it before the fall.  If going to the Gym is not your thing, go biking or hiking, do something that you enjoy and will make you healthy at the same time.
