Training Partner - Virgin Active - low level of fitness!

[moongarden 10]

I'm overweight and underfit at the moment (with a BMI of 34.8!) and looking to find someone to train with 3 times a week who is a similar level of fitness.

 

I got a membership for Virgin Active in Heeley for my birthday and I'm not working at the moment so the ideal time for me is just after the morning rush, about 9:30 am.

 

Years ago when I was a member at another gym they had a noticeboard where you could find someone to train with or put an ad up. I wonder why they don't do that anymore?

hi sina, i'm 36. i think it would be nice to get a small group of girls together to train and get fit a couple of times a week.

 

what gym do you go to?

I used to go to S10health for a month. Its a small, cheap and good gym, but cannot be compared to Virgin active.

 

By the way, you're a guy, right? anyway, I'm a guy.

And if you are going to virgin, and if you have a car, can you pick me up? I would be more than happy for that.

Cheers

i'm female hence wanting to get a group of girls together but its more about the fitness levels really. i'd rather not train with someone who's ability is way above mine as it can be disheartening or embarasing sometimes.

 

i walk to Virgin as its only a mile from home. the 12 month membership was a present - i wouldn't be able to afford it otherwise! but luckily its quite close by. I've been a member of gyms in the past where they were not near home or work and i find that i use them much less often.
