i'm 23. my husband is 30. (i robbed the grave). i'm mostly a stay-at-home mom until the little one hits kindergarten.

side thought:  i paid for a 18 month gym membership and i haven't gone in months. i don't have the ambition to go alone. i had a gym partner, then she got pregnant and she went nuts. then i planned to be partners with a different friend, but she went once and although she said she had fun and wanted to go again, she hasn't. i really need a new gym partner. does anyone on here go to franck's gym?

why don't you want to go alone?. I love to go alone. I just listen to my IPOD and work out. I wish I had the time to go to the gym.

I haven't gone to Franks gym. We actually bought or own equip. and have a room set up in the basement of our home. Treadmill, weights, yoga stuff..you name it. I like that I don't have to go anywhere and I can work out anytime, however sometimes I get distracted when my little guy wants to work out with me. I like to clear my mind when I work out, so I would enjoy being alone!!! Just me though....

I was the same, too. I used to go to the gym with a friend, but then she moved. So, I got no one to go with. I hate going alone. I am planning on buying my own treadmill...I am getting chunky...now that I am pregnant again. I would rather be the guy. I told my hubby...I blame him.

i don't like going alone, i enjoy company. i'm not comfortable leaving my kids with their wacko grandma just to be alone. my thyroid is dead. i have no energy. so i need someone there to encourage me.

 

franck's is open from 4 am  - 1 am monday thru friday and on the weekends they close at i think 4 in winter and 1 in summer. i don't like their weekend hours. if i actually got a new gym membership, i'd pay more and go to the one with onsite childcare.

i would love to put a gym in my house, but i'm not rich.

i had a treadmill, but i didn't like it. i'd rather just walk or run up and down the stairs.

they also have a daily rate. so if you can't afford to go on a regular basis, you can pay i think $4 each time you go. i pay $20 a month, but that's with the contract. when you go in there's someone at the counter and you have to go up and pull a card out of a tray and put in on the counter next to the cards of the other people who are there. they don't even look at which card you choose. i bet you could just grab someone else's card and they wouldn't notice.

I work at Wausau Health and Fitness.  We have onsite childcare for free to all members.  PM me if you want more specific information.  I joined b/c of the child care - it's the only one in the area that doesn't charge extra.  I highly recommend it!  They also offer TONS of classes, including Yoga/Pilates, to all members.
