Post more so we can get to know you better.
Sorry about the challenges you are facing. However, don't let that derail your progress. Do try some working out at home. I've been doing that for approx 2 months (just because I couldn't face going to the gym). You can get up to some challenging workouts at home. Good luck to you.

Thanks for your reply, I am actually quite surprised how well NROL was working, seemed to be faster results then with NROL4W, probably because the fat loss programs came first rather then last. I just couldn't do at home workouts. Being used to the gym, just made it difficult to get motivated enough.
But the good news is I rejoined the gym, this time with my fiance, his name is John. He wants to turn from an avid runner to a strength training fan like me. I am restarting NROL with him. We went to the new gym on Tuesday, and I was sort of sad since I really enjoyed my old gym so will take some adjusting. I knew all the people and I was sort of nervous being in a new place. We got a 2 yr contract so will get to know this new place very well.
Anyways, when we went on Tuesday, we just fooled around with some nautilus equipment since John never really did any strength training before. They have 2 squat racks, which is strange because the place is about 10x bigger then my old gym that also had 2 racks. I'm sure I'll be spending some time waiting to use them. I did a set of squats, and then we did some free weight exercises. The next day my thighs have major DOMS and even today are still quite sore. This is what I get for not doing anything for awhile, lol.
I figure with John we'll do the same programs together [starting with the break-in], but alternate who is doing workout A and B, that way it won't be so strange seeing a couple doing the same thing. We both have the same goals of lowering body fat and gaining muscle.
