[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think crowded gyms are annoying to everyone, not just the year-round DCUAthletes. We can all agree it sucks to wait for a treadmill or to not be able to full-out shake it in Zumba. It may be one of the reasons why people give up in January.

For the newbies: it will be better by Valentine's Day. Stick it out until then so you can see what it's like the rest of the year. And if you stick it out until summer, the gym will be practically empty as runners go outside, and people take their vacations.[/quote]

NP. I agree with this and the one above who compared it to sudden commuting traffic. One or two new people at a time don't cause congestion because they learn the ropes and blend right in after a while. A sudden influx of tons of new people all at the same time causes chaos. If everyone who started back or started new in January kept it up all year, the gyms would expand or open new locations or buy more equipment or whatever they have to do to handle the quantity of people they're serving. The problem is that people drop back off and the gyms don't have any reason to change anything. So don't quit! Keep coming to the gym and we'll all benefit!
