I have a dilemma. Going on 9 weeks, I’ve been working out 6 days a week at Peak Body Transformation. I’m not taking home the $1000 grand prize, but I have seen some changes. I just don’t know if it was worth the $139 Groupon price I paid. I guess I was expecting to get at least below 140 lbs by now…but I discovered that I don’t have the food discipline to get there fast enough.

Ok so what do I do after the 10 weeks is over? Do I sign up for another 10 week stint at PBT at what I assume is 2x the initial price I paid? Will it be worth it? The one great thing that I had at PBT was that I was “compelled” to attend class every single day, making every penny count. I’m still dragging my arse out of bed every morning and making the short drive to the gym. I’m worried if I lose this schedule, I’ll fall off the wagon and lose any gains I’ve made so far. 

I’d love to try a regular gym, but I don’t know that I have the nerve to go there by myself and do the work. I think I’m too much of a lemming to find the individual incentive to work out on my own. I would rather be told what to do than come up with personal routines–and I’m sure my apprehension stems from my insecurity about working out solo. There’s something strangely competitive about working out as a group, even though the group doesn’t even know you’re there.

I kinda like the internet workouts like Bodyrock.tv, but I’m finding it difficult to squeeze it into my current schedule right now. My home space isn’t really suited for hosting the exercises I’ve seen in there–too cramped, too uncomfortable.

I’m not keen on spending some crazy $$$ on another 10 weeks of PBT…I wonder if there are any other alternatives out there. 

The warm days of spring loom ahead; I’m already dreading outdoor exercises for fear of raging allergies and stinging pests–I hate mosquitoes! I also prefer to breathe in cold air instead of hot, a good argument for moving to a northern climate. I’m already missing the cool winter workouts I’ve been enjoying…hot weather is just ahead.
