So Much for a Crowded Gym

Previously I mentioned that my gym has seen an influx of people working out or having new starts. Suddenly, everything becomes super crowded in January. Yet come February or late January and it's empty, like it was today. 

Where's the follow through? If you're part of the 10 percent (I made that number up) of people who actually stick to your new plans in 2026, here's a high five. Some people try to tackle a goal so big it's impossible to accomplish. That's just asking for failure. I've been there, believe me. Eventually you just have to stop making excuses and follow through with your plans. There is no secret. Just get 'er done.

P.S. There is one upside to an empty gym. You don't have to wait for the pullup bar :)
