Warning: Exercise After Dark
If your schedule dictates that the ever necessary visits to the gym have to occur after 5.30p.m., I’m suggesting not to bother.
At this hour the gym overfills with eventually sweaty businessmen and the commuter crowd - these people are workaholics by day and gym junkies by night. It is recommended you avoid these groups at all costs.
The ‘after park’ problem means that machines are never available, always in use by the overly zealous of bodybuilders and wannabes, the floor is crowded and messy. Patrons of the gym are hopeless at organising themselves, blocking off the corridors and clustering in the most inconvenient places.
This really makes it difficult for the rest of us. We have our designated program, we want to retain a structured effort towards the ultimate goal of excellent health and fitness. Such discipline is a far cry from the harried commuter dash routine.
If you haven’t determined this by now, the gym after dark is a busy time of day - so for the ultimate workout, avoid this time and direct yourself elsewhere. Leave before 5.30, just advice based on experience.
