[quote=Anonymous]There are absolutely overweight people at gyms! There are all kinds of people on different spectrum of their fitness. At my gym, there are serious, hardcore athletes, and there are also a few people who are several hundred pounds overweight. Most people are somewhere in between, but everyone there is doing something to better themselves. I'd start out light on the elliptical, or walking with an incline on the treadmill. As your tolerance builds, they key is to continue to challenge yourself. You can do this in a number of ways - continuing for a longer duration, increasing speed & incline on the treadmill, or increasing resistance on an elliptical. Don't start out intense, however - it's easier to wear yourself out that way. Start light and easy to familiarize yourself with the machines and what your body can do, and gradually push yourself a little more/harder. [/quote]
