Top Ten Reasons NOT to Train at BodyScapes in Newton Highlands….




10.  For the first time, I don’t have any resolutions to get fit, feel stronger or have any more energy than I already have.  #thanksallset

9.  Ample parking?  Who cares - I prefer to stress over being late to a class or workout because I enjoy driving around desperately searching for a spot or panicking because I don’t have quarters for the meters.

8.  I have some dumbbells and one of those big blow-up stability balls at home, I even got a kettle-bell for the holidays and am motivated to workout at home...consistently.  Mid-winter. When I’m tired. When my kids kept me up. After a night out with co-workers. Because it's Monday...because it's Friday...Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. My bed is super comfy and my covers are just so super warm...etc etc etc

7.  I’m not among the 99% of all human beings who begin losing ½-1%  muscle mass per year after the age of 30 without dedicated weight-training.  I’m good.

6. Who needs accountability...I have no problem getting out of bed for a 6:30AM workout.

5.  A staple in Newton, O'Hara’s Food & Spirits and a neighborhood newcomer, Walnut Grille are right next door...I don’t want to be tempted to meet my family there for a healthy dinner after my workout, or check out the newest vegetarian experience in Boston. check-please?

4. Clean, well-lit facilities with upscale amenities just don’t do it for me.  I prefer dungeon-like weight-rooms, with locker rooms resembling something out of a 1970’s Stephen King film...

3.  I’m allergic to friendly, motivating and funny people - otherwise known as the BodyScapes training staff of fitness professionals.  Why would I want someone on my team focused on encouraging me to meet my goals.  Cough-sneeze-gag!

2.  I did great through the holiday season this year, kept up my workout routine and actually lost weight!

1.  I plan to use the Force to improve my health and well-being this year. Hey... it worked for Luke Skywalker.
