So since you and I’ve stuck it out together, let’s take a few moments to poke some fun at those quitters.  That’s right, say it loud and say it proud with me — “Quitter! Quitter!”

 

Top 10 Reasons the Gym is Less Crowded Nowadays

10.  A Baskin Robbins opened up shop right across the street from the gym.  31 flavors!?  One for each day of the month!baskin robbins

9.  People just couldn’t figure out how to get their no-show socks to stop showing at the gym.

8.  “Nudie Night” just wasn’t quite the success the gym owners thought it would be.

6.  Turns out that yeah, all the good looking guys at the gym really are gay! (Oh the social events you are going to miss!)

5.  They went 5 times the first week and got upset they weren’t toned up on day 5.  Headed to Baskin Robbins instead.fast food

4.  Got warned numerous times about eating Monster Burgers and fries while using the equipment. 

3.  Didn’t realize that one year membership included months other than those that start with “Jan”.

2.  Turns out that it IS impossible to work out and then pig out.  Who would have thought it?

1.  They broke a sweat and decided it was too much work – they never broke a sweat watching TV, and they weren’t starting now!
