Ok - so I thought it might be interesting (& a source of relief) to share our embarassing gym moments. So often there are threads about hesitancy to join a gym that I thought this might help people feel less foolish.
I'll start: I went to the gym one day with a friend & we started on the treadmills. Now, at this gym the cardio machines are lined up in two lines facing each other - so it's a little hard not to see each other. I started off at a walk to warm up & I guess I was paying more attention to our conversation then to my feet & I fell. Well, instead of just flying off the end I held on! You could hear the skin being rubbed off my knees until I finally let go & slid off the back of the darn machine. Totally embarassed my friend help dust me off & said "Just take it slow." I was Walking!!!
Geez - I hope I'm not the only one who joins this thread....
