Alright, so today I scheduled an appointment for tomorrow to check out the next closest big-name gym around my area.  Good Life Fitness.  I remember the guy at the last place I signed up at, telling me that I should always look to sign up for a gym membership in December, as that is the slowest month of the year, while January (with everyone’s new years resolutions) is always the busiest.

I’ve been a member at Extreme Fitness, stopped due to moving away for school.  Also it was pretty far away (I joined with Emran and it was a middle-ground between our two residences,) located pretty inconviniently (requiring a left-hand turn from Yonge St without any lights or other traffic control,) and was pretty expensive (I think I paid around $300 for my 3 month membership)

I’ve been a member at Premier Fitness, it was awesome and I did great there, learned yoga and had a personal trainer.  Their sales tactics made me laugh because of how hard they were trying to push you into purchasing personal training (I signed up for 6 sessions, when they wanted me to sign up for 52… to 26… to 12… finally letting me go with 6,) problem being when I lost my job about 5 months after, I became depressed.  I started going again but at my 10 month mark into my 12 month contract the location I was at suddenly and “unexpectedly” (there were multiple rumours) closed.  Members were shuffled around to various other locations, I ended up at the gym we were supposed to go to, which was much smaller and didn’t have nearly the same ammenities.  I stopped going again.

I’ve been a member at the Boxing gym at Dundas West & Bloor (Toronto.)  That was short-lived since I only bought the membership off Phil’s girlfriend since she never used it.  but $50.00 for 3-4 months worth was pretty awesome.  I think I only went in about 6 times to use the cardio eqiupment while waiting for Unicycle club practice to start… but that’s 5 more times than Phil came with me (with the idea that we’d BOTH go and wait for club to start!)

At this rate I'll need another one of these by next week!

but how friggin' pretty is THAT?! (Just renamed the drive to “Tuberculosis” btw.)

… formatting a bright shiny new 1TB hard drive.

It's so shiny and pretty (and matches my blue desktop tower!!) that I kind of wish I bought two…… *sigh*

Alright, so I’m pretty certain this was the last day I attempted to work on the six week program.

I do remember clearly that it was very difficult, and that I didn’t hit any of the proper set numbers.

However, I did accomplish the following: 20-20-20-20-20

And with the impending parties and activities, I figured “good enough!”

I’ll probably start this up again in the new year after everything settles.

Or… something!
