I had my ipod on shuffle today. I did listen to one of my favorite songs though while lifting today. I always think of these bad-ass girls when I hear it now. It's the same video in two different formats...

GYM SHOPPING
******************
So, my gym just replaced all the machines with new, off-brand shit. It's awful! So, I went "gym shopping" after my crappy workout!
I have 3-4 options that I'm looking at. They range from $20-40/mo. Only one of them has locations all over the different states that I travel with my job. But, I don't think it has enough equipment. I have a dilemma! Do I join a GREAT gym locally? or do I join a gym that will let me work out when I travel? Or, do I try to find a hotel with a good gym in it? Hmm....still haven't decided. We'll see!
