observing the rec

[maggiemanning13]

Though the Rec has cleared out a little bit from the large crowds of the first week in the semester, there are still a large amount of people visiting there. Unfortunately, my schedule only allows my to go in the later afternoon/evening hours when everyone else seems to be working out. I have stayed away from the weight room completely due to the crowds of young men who infest the area, making it very intimidating for a women to go in and work out there. I am going to try and get up early to go lift weights when not so many beef cakes and wanna be beef cakes are there trying to get pumped. I also observed a ton of people who seem to be trying out machines or casually working out. But it seemed like the crowd in the summer were serious about working out where as now, its more of being seen at the Rec "working out". To me it is kind of annoying, but I know as the weeks progress more and more students will drop off of their work out routine, leaving more room and equipment for me!
