[NABS-L] Some Questions for These Who Work Out or Have Worked Out At their Campus Gym

[Roper, Meaghan]

Hi Vejas,

When I started using the gym, I asked one of the employees to show me around and teach me how to use all of the equipment. After that, I was able to use the facilities on my own. As far as having a regular schedule, I generally try to go in the late evening or early morning before classes started. You can be pretty flexible with the gym time, I think. College campus gyms are usually open pretty late.

I know that I have a lot of friends who would be willing to go with me at various times, but I don't want to rely on them all the time.  I am more into moving equipment like the treadmill, stairmaster and excercise bike, and also like swimming.
