I decided to give it a try for my injured back (injured it when I was 18 and have had problems ever since) and to try to get healthy so that I don't get sick as often. D:

Some things make it hurt. One of the reasons I opted to do personal training sessions with a personal trainer - he can tell me different ways to exercise...I can let him know if it hurts or not, and we can switch it up or just drop it. I think if I just went at it by myself, I'd be hurting a LOT more...and in a bad way. I'm hurting for good reasons right now XD

Ohhh. That's a good idea. Its always good to have someone to guide you, especially if you're injured!

yep - I tried doing it on my own the first few weeks - I felt like a moron XD I had no idea what I was doing

x___o Ahh. Exercise equipment can be tricky!

It CAN be tricky XD Even just using weights or doing exercises with just your body can be tricky if you don't know the right way to do it D:

Are there people that will help you if you have a membership to a gym?

The gym I am with gives you a free personal training session. After that, you are on your own. If you have questions about a machine, they can help you...but they aren't there to train you. You pay extra for personal training sessions after the first one. I am glad to do it since i've learned a lot :D

Hi, Maria! :3

Hello Eli :D Doing well?

Of course! I'm trying my hand at running a raffle for the first time. How are you doing, Maria? Besides being tired and sore, I mean.

As long as they're willing to answer, "How do I use this machine without breaking my leg." I think I'm satisfied. xD

I was relieved to read the first post after reading the thread title....like others have said, it's pretty normal to feel sore from working out.

... What were you thinking of?

Sorry i disappeared...went to sleep lol

I should do that soon.

Sleep is a good thing!!! If I don't sleep - I can't function XD

I need to sleep less. :c.

I sleep a lot, and am not ashamed.

How many hours do you sleep?
