A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Frustration
Today, I found out I need surgery for a hernia that blew up after working out. I’ve been working out constantly to keep my mind off of my ex, who was the right person at the wrong time, and now I can’t even do that. FML

Today, I went to the gym to try to get into shape. I pulled a muscle taking my sweater off in the locker room. FML

Today, I decided to get in shape for swimsuit season, so I went to the gym. I tried to lift a barbell up and over my head, which was fine, until I dropped it. Exercise earned me a concussion and a neck brace. FML

Take it easy
Today, I went to the gym for the first time in months. I was so out of shape that I couldn't even finish my warm-up. FML

The first step is the hardest
Today, I went to the gym after months of procrastinating. I walked straight into the glass wall next to the entrance instead of the door. A guy lifting near the front desk winced in sympathy. I still worked out, but I could see my face slowly swelling in the mirror. FML

Today, it was my first day at a new gym, which cost a fortune. Some skinny teen who had clearly never lifted in his life dropped a weight while I was stretching and broke my ankle. Money down the drain. FML

Know your place
Today, I went to the new gym I recently signed up for and started exercising in the men-filled weights room, despite being intimidated by them and the strange looks they were giving me. Workout over, I left the room and saw in front of me a door marked, "Women's weights room." Oh. FML

Today, at the gym, I attempted to deadlift after binge eating ice cream last night. I need new underwear. FML

Dang I'm tired of all you new year resolution gym people. I give you your props for trying but give up already. Start by taking your fat a$$ outside and run around the block until you pass out and after 8 months are so go to gym.

Wow, it's rude people like you that make it hard enough for people to start going to the gym, for fear of being judged. Also, nothing says OP hadn't been working out before joining this gym, or that he's fat.

I'm with 84 - in fact the OP says "a new Gym" implying that there had been an old gym. What confuses me is how you can herniate yourself _applying_!

Working out: You're doing it wrong.

This probably proves u can't lift that much

Ouch! Well hopefully you can heal up and give it another try OP... perhaps with less weight?

yeah... pace yourself. good idea, but i bet your one of those guys who decides to go to a gym, works way too hard, and hates it, so they eventually stop going. exercise shouldn't be painful.

I kinda feel your pain. I just joined a gym and began a boot camp workout class and now I messed up my knee so I can't even walk.
