Gym n00b. :D

    Hello...

    My sister got me a month's trial to a gym recently and I'm going to start this week sometime.
    I have never been in the gym so I don't know the layout etc, 'nor do I know anyone who goes there.
    I'm by no means out of shape, I just don't really know how to use the equipment there etc. Of course there will be instructors there to help out but I'm still kinda nervous and self-conscious(?) about walking in and being the guy who doesn't have a clue.
    I don't really know what I'm asking for here!? It's late and I'm bored so I said I may aswel post this. :pac:
    How did you get on when you first joined?

    I organised a meeting with one of the instructors. The equipment is easy to use and you'll pick it up in one showing.

    What do you want to achieve in the gym?

    If you know this, you'll be better equipped to ask questions and seek instruction from the guys there.

    I seriously wouldn't worry about being that guy who doesn't know what they're doing, there's a lot of people in the gym who are clueless and/or self conscious so no one's going to be looking at you and tut-tuting to themselves.

    If you need any other help sure you can always ask here!
