working out

How many of us visit the gym on a regular basis? I just started and I haven't felt better in ages. Still trying to learn what to do, when to do it, and what to eat.

Whats a Gym?

I used to belong to a gym but since I bought my house, I put my own "gym" in the basement. I bought a Precor eliptical, a fully adjustable weight bench (flat, incline, decline) a dumbell rack and 6 sets of dumbbells ranging from 25lbs to 85lbs.

Haven't been able to lift lately though due to tennis elbow in my left arm. I had the same problem in my right arm 10 years ago and ended up needing to have surgery. Let's hope I'm not going down that path again.

Being that I have a Bowflex at home I work out at least 4 days a week and take NO2, Megamen Multivitamins, and a Protein drink mixed with bananas & Glutamine powder.

I really need to focus more on my core because I hurt my back a few years ago and now suffer from Sciatica (a literal pain in the a$$).

i hit the weight room every other day. i run, do push ups, & sit ups every day.

I'm a fat and lazy SOB who can't seem to get the motivation to work out. I think about it but never go through with it. Hopefully one day that will change but without the motivation it just won't work. I did start a weight lifting regimine a while back but due to the arthritis in my wrist I had to stop. For now I try to go on 1-2 hour walks when weather permits.

This is what I see when I drive by the gym near my house.
