"The gym is a community"
Why? You might ask do I think that the gym is a community, I think that all the people there are there for the same reason, to lose weight and feel great! This is a pretty strong bond beacuse no one is realy judging anyone (not out loud anyways), we are all struggling on the treadmill or the stairstepper, we understand when a person is sitting on the weight machine and not doing anything, we feel their pain, and know the emotions that are flowing through their bodies, we know that they are trying to get up the strength and energy to keep going. Most of the people at the gym have the same intrest you can see this in the face that most of us are wearing the same brands and drinking the same water, we all want to be healthy and feel better about ourselves, all of us mothers that go there have the need for daycare when we are working out so that is a community within a community. We are only able to work out the hours that the daycare is open, so alot of us moms are on the same schedule and we have got to know eachother(many of us also have our kids in sports through the Y so the is another sub-community) I hope that the community that the community that I have choosen will be one that my children love and want to continue in. There is not to much tension at the gym people are there to relive stress there are people who are very unhappy with their bodies and self you learn to stear clear of those type. I fit in this group beacuse I am there five times a week at four when the child care opens. I have gotten to know many of the four o' clockers. I want to be part of this community beacuse I have never been to a place that I feel so good after leaving I have a saign that "you never regret going to the gym, you always regret not going.
