Wow!
Did any of you other fitness center regulars notice a big increase of people exercising this week? People waiting for stationary aerobic equipment, weight machines, etc. I had trouble finding an open locker. All the AD back from holiday leave. Lots of New Year's resolutions is my guess. It's not a bad thing, but I wonder how long will it last?

By the middle of next month, things should be back to normal. Thats how it usually goes.

I figured as much. I just haven't seen it before because generally my workouts are out running, swimming, cycling, etc. But I'm rehabbing an Achilles tendonitis so I'm doing weights at the fitness center more frequently.

At work, not this year.

Previous years, you'd see a brief surge for a month and then they'd get bored and leave, making more room for us hardcores.

Bloch Arena is usually slow up until 1500, then they start pouring in. If you go in the morning, all the machines are full by 0530. Hickam is the same way. But, you can always tell when they're New Years Resolutionists (NYR) because they aren't there on Friday morning/afternoon. Forget the weekend, it's a ghost town.
