I just joined Lucille Robers and.........

I actually love it. I never stepped foot in a gym before.... I used to run 2-4 miles a day so I figured I didn't need the discipline - PS... I destroyed my knees and didn't know how else to exercise.
I really like the classes - I actually went to all of them this week - now my mom and sister want to join because I keep raving about their stuff - I actually leave work early to get there on time!!!

BTW Pilates is harder than it looks.

oh yeah tell me about it. i've given up on pilates. try the elliptical, it'll be really sweet on your knees and give you a good workout!!

which location?

I usually go to either Stony Brook or Commack - BUT I am probably going to be using Plainview and Westbury as well, because my job - which I hate! - takes me to clients all over the place.

Hey sounds good - I'm actually going to go today for Salsa Aerobics and Pilates (of course!)

Re: I just joined Lucille Robers and.........

Re: I just joined Lucille Robers and.........

Ah - I didn't read that until after I got home - or else I would have introduced myself....

'Hi I'm Ginny - and I don't have enough rhythm to do salsa aerobics.' It got to the point when I just started flailing around - which was only topped by the constipated face I couldn't stop making during the weight lifting section of that box class. I really felt retarted because I kept doing that face AFTER I put the stupid weights down.... but it was so much fun. I'll probably try to get there next week -

Actually groovypeg - I have a question - r u supposed to tip the personal trainers? I have one in Stony Brook on Wed and I don't know what you are supposed to do.

My mom goes to the plainview one. If I lived on LI , I would too. The gym I join in NYC didn't have classes & the other ones that do are too $$$ & scary.

well, i was going to tip the trainer after all of my sessions. i paid for 12 sessions, and i should be done by the end of september.

i am a little bit upset by the manager there. yesterday i had to cancel my appointment b/c of an emergency and the manager told me that i would lose my session b/c of the 24 hr rule. i was like 'this is an emergency.' but she didnt want to hear about it. and i left a message for my trainer to call me and she hasn't yet. so, i am not too happy right now with lucille roberts.

Re: I just joined Lucille Robers and.........

Hey groovypeg - I understand. I think know the one you are talking about. I actually found her slightly agressive about recruiting and I could picture her saying that. I don't get why they wouldn't let you just change the appt.

groovypeg Posted: Sep 08, 2004 09:33 PM

Re: I just joined Lucille Robers and.........

well i finally got in touch with my trainer. i hope i dont run into the manager. i might just have to be a b*tch and complain.

Re: I just joined Lucille Robers and.........

Hey Groovypeg - Salsa Aerobics tonight at 5:45 - I think I'm bringing my mom, how funny is that!!!

Re: I just joined Lucille Robers and.........

I also belong to LR.

I used to go to the one in Shirley. I haven't been since way before my wedding. I am soooooo bad. I know I have to start going again, the pounds are coming on more, it all started from the HM.

I will also be going to the one in Stony Brook. I just need that one day of motivation to get my lazy a** over there.
