I Prayed For A Sign...

Okay, I know I've blogged once today, but I just had to put a comment about this on here. If you know me, you know I've been praying for God to tell me it's okay not to exercise and that it's bad for me. Today the heavens opened and a hallelujah chorus rang out. Okay, well, maybe it didn't happen quite like that, but I did find this. How great is this? Not one reason not to go to the gym, but 6. Count them, SIX.



Well, the first one says to cover any scrapes or cuts with a band aid and recommends that you not shave before going to the gym. Well, as if getting a date isn't hard enough for an irresistable Christian girl like myself, why don't I just show up to the gym looking like cousin it. Yes, the sight of me in work out clothes should be enough to send even the most desperate man running for his life, but add to that the fact that I've not shaved in a couple of days....well, let's just say I won't be plagued with the awful decision of just what restaurant I'm in the mood to eat at.



Number 3 recommends you clean the equipment before and after use. The thought of cleaning the equipment before and AFTER I use it just made me laugh out loud. I mean come on. I clean enough at home and call me mean or whatever, I'm just not going to clean the equipment for someone else when I'm done. I brought my rag and lysol in there and they can do the same.



Numbers 2, 4 and 5 are just plain nasty and disturbing in so many ways I won't even go into them.



The last one...well, just refer to the above mentioned appearance in work out clothes. Do you think I'm going to walk around with nothing on?



I've just concluded that there are too many risks and at the young age of 23 I just can't risk my health. Please spread the word....the gym will kill you. I've said it all along people.
