Im tired of being fat. I also have a goal I would like to reach by next spring. Can anyone recomend an inexpensive gym in Norfolk? I was thinking about the planet fitness off of Little Creek because its cheap but I know ARF isnt a fan of PF. Im near Tidewater and Norview, the closer to there the better.

I would also be interested in finding someone who could help motivate me and join me at the gym. (No homo)

I like the Y for my family.  There is one in downtown.  Classes childcare, weights, spinning, and for a seaman such as yourself, a pool.

Always cross fit Ghent if you want to be in thee cult.  Say hi to my ex-wife!

Of course in your hood, you can just run from flying bullets .  :)

For one person, I dont know.  The family is 80$ a month.  2 free hours of childcare a day.

When I was 3 day a week stay at home dad when Jr was a wee tot- I used the crap out of that!!

Im not saying you could use 2 hours at Great Bridge y, then 2 hours at Greenbrair y, then 2 hours at Taylor Bend (western branch) y, but I heard rumor that you could!!!!




Kroc Center in Norfolk??




The old JCC in Norfolk?
(that is where I learned to swim. Before you were born)

I'm a bit east of Virginia Wesleyan.  I have an Anytime Fitness membership but it's not exactly cheap...Not bad but not "cheap."  I think you should go ahead and do PF, just don't eat the pizza or doughnuts. They're counterproductive.

Ya giving out pizza and doughnuts at a gym seems

Thats probably what ill do. They have plenty of cardio stuff. Once I get some pounds off I can build some muscle. You cant beat $10 a month.

Yeah, I was gonna say Planet Fitness in Janaf.  If you just want to lose the weight they have plenty of equipment for that.  But for body building go somewhere else.

I have seen that place driving by in the interstate. That may be someplace I would consider in the future. Right now my goal is weight loss.
