After being here for a month, I realized I didn't actually know what F.N.S. stands for. I sheepishly asked one of the coaches at the front desk, who told me that it means Fitness Never Sleeps. So there, now you know!

Speaking of the front desk, everyone is super nice and remembers my name whenever I come in, which is not even that often!
I play pickup basketball pretty regularly. I enjoy it because it's a good workout and it's fun to play with a group of people to work toward an objective. I can't bring myself to run regularly or do home exercises habitually. It turns out when you put your dumbbells next to the couch, you still just want to sit in your couch all the time. Anyway, I figured I should do something other than hoops to round out my overall fitness and avoid injury on the court.
I've been coming out to FNS for about 4-5 weeks now, about once or twice a week. I'm not exactly a weightlifting enthusiast, and my left knee and I aren't on great terms right now, but I look forward to coming in for classes when my schedule allows (pro-tip: just carve the time out in Outlook as "busy"). Classes are fun, with motivational coaches who are attentive and inspire a spirit of camaraderie. The workouts have a bunch of variety to keep things interesting and well-rounded, and -- more importantly -- the equipment is all set up for you when you come in, so you can get going right away. It's way better than working out at home on your own by several orders of magnitude. Lastly, I like the classes for the same reasons I enjoy basketball -- great workouts that aren't boring, with a group of people who are working toward an objective.
As far as results go, well, it's probably going to take more than just a month of dilly-dallying 1-2x a week to have anything to show for it. But I definitely feel good, and that's what matters at the end of the day! Also, last week I was able to carry my sleeping 7 year old through an airport terminal with one arm while rolling our bag with the other; that counts for something yeah?
