I totally agree. I joined the gym scene almost three years ago and it was the best thing i ever did. it is the one thing i look forward to every day. it is a tremendous stress reliever and it just makes you feel good all around. i go when the gym opens at five a.m. and it is the perfect start to my day. If i dont go, i feel awful all day long. its definitely worth your time and effort..the rewards are phenomenal.
