But I don\u2019t get how people love to exercise. Welcome inside of the mind of someone who hates working out at a gym:<\/big><\/p>\n<p>  <big><big>1. What the hell am I doing here?<\/p>\n<p>  2. Okay, let\u2019s try the treadmill. Classic and simple.<\/p>\n<p>  3. Now how long have I been simulating running? <\/p>\n<p>  4. IT\u2019S ONLY BEEN 7 minutes??? But my legs are shaking.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.thefrisky.com\/uploads\/2013\/04\/23\/horizontal_running.gif\"width=\"100%\"><\/p>\n<p>  5. Wow, look at that guy; he\u2019s been on the spin bike for half an hour.<\/p>\n<p>  6. Okay, now I seriously gotta stop cardio, feels like I&#8217;m having a heart attack.<\/p>\n<p>  7. Why does everyone here look so glamorous and fit?<\/p>\n<p>  8. Except me, I\u2019m the only one whose sweating like a pig. A Fat Pig.<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/spotmegirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/giphy2.gif\"width=\"100%\"><\/p>\n<p>  9. It\u2019s so crowded and everyone\u2019s staring at me now.<\/p>\n<p>  10. Well I guess I\u2019m just going to stare back. How are those people so fit? <\/p>\n<p>  11. Oh, perhaps because they use all these machines often.<\/p>\n<p>  12. I want to try something new but, what is it? What is a SUSPENSION machine?!<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sev.h-cdn.co\/assets\/15\/26\/1435174485-when-someone-suggests-exercising.gif\"width=\"100%\"> <\/p>\n<p>  13. Omg this room just looks like a bad S&#038;M movie.<\/p>\n<p>  14. Oh look, another fit person! Just in time to crush my spirits.<\/p>\n<p>  15. How can someone lift that much weight?!<\/p>\n<p>  16. Wow I am kind of hungry now. Plus I saw this burger picture on Instagram on my way here.<\/p>\n<p>  17. I&#8217;ll just come back next week and ask for a personal trainer. Won\u2019t he do all the work for me? <\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnesstrainer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/d7eab8e372483ab70dc8b926ce559a41.gif\"width=\"100%\"><\/p>\n<p>  18. Because now all I can think about is a burger. And a shower.<\/p>\n<p>  19. I totally deserve this burger after my really hard exercise. And burgers are protein and I need protein. <\/p>\n<p>  20.
