Going To The Gym For The First Time (As Told By GIFS)

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Lasell chapter.

    It’s that time of year. People are finally following their New Year’s resolutions after about a month of procrastinating. Recently I went to the gym for the first time, as part of my resolution to take care of myself, and it went a little something like this.

When you tell your friends that you’re going to the gym:

Okay but no, I’m actually serious this time. I swear!

When you put on your brand new workout clothes:

#FeelingMyself

When you actually step into the gym:

Nope, definitely don’t belong here.

When you first get on the elliptical:

Pssh, working out is easy.

30 seconds later:

Nope jk, this is the worst.

When you finish your workout:

I feel incredible.

When you finally get back to your room:

Nobody touch me for the next 48 hours.
