Started Back at the Gym

Well i have gone and done it again, started to pay a monthly sum of exorbitant amounts to a gym. I am now on my third gym since leaving the Andrew two years ago.
It was so easy having the gym on your doorstep and not having to pay for it, since those days I have had 6 months with Michelle White in Bideford, paying x amount and probably going about 10 times in 6 months. Then I tried Fitness M8 in Bideford again exorbitant amounts and alot of hassle trying to get out of the contract when i probably only went 6 or so times. I think they had problems there anyway as they have now shut down.
Anyway at the weekend I went to the Barnstaple Hotel and there they have improved their gym a 100% it is full of modern machines now and with a pool (inside and Out) and a relaxation room, so I have taken the plunge again. I am determined to make the effort to go at least three times a week and keep it going all the time I am paying for it.
Tonight I had my induction, which was quite amusing in the fact that the young gym instructor treated me like a complete novice, must have been my three chins and five bellies which led her to believe I had never stepped inside one of those places before.
Well now i'm a fully inducted member and have had my first gym session in months, I think it even helped my golf swing as I finally managed to hit some decent shots with my driver...
