"the weightroom"

The first place in the Student Recreational Center I'd like to talk about is the weight room. You can do all the work on the basketball court or football field, or whatever the sport may be you can practice it all day everyday. If you don't get in the weight room to do some type of strength building, it could almost be pointless. Throughout school, the thought of working out made me excited to be honest, i couldn't wait to go lift because I knew it would make a better athlete, player, and overall performer. Everyday the team would go straight to the weight room after school and would have reserved time slots to work out. Going to the weight room here is a little different, as big as it is, the one machine you need to get too could be being used and make you wait an hour or completely have to change the route you wanted to go. Also, on the other end, if you're using a machine or weight that another person needs, it seems they constantly hawk you or stare you down until you are complete. For me, it makes me want to rush to get done so I don't feel like I'm holding anyone up, but at the same time I don't get all I need to get out of my workout for myself. It's almost human nature that if you don't feel comfortable in a situation that you will veer away from it, and being at the gym and not liking the situation you're in can make you not want to go and to just give up because they don't want to work in the type of conditions the are presented.
