Why are you avoiding exercise?

You’re intimidated
For some, stepping foot in a gym is like stepping off a plane in a foreign country. Although the variety of machines and sea of buff bodies can be unnerving at first, there are ways to overcome this gym-phobia. Most facilities are more than happy to provide a tour, so consider spending time with a staff member who can explain what each machine does, and how it will help you. Avoiding the gym at peak hours can also make the trip less intimidating, since there will not be as many people sharing and waiting for machines.
