Time to Hit the Gym

With the new year already two days in, it’s time to test your New Year’s resolutions by hitting the gym.

The Fieldhouse Family Fitness Center was closed on January 1st, but Owner Mick Amicone says by the next day, he received around 50 voicemails wanting to see if the gym was open.

"January 2nd has been a zoo, just tons of people coming through the doors and to be honest with you, all but probably two of them are new people looking to make a little bit of a New Year’s resolution to improve themselves on 2010 results," said Amicone. 

Amicone says the hardest thing for people to realize is that they have to be patient when wanting to lose weight.  He says working out is not a quick fix; it is a complete lifestyle change.

"Bottom line is people want self improvement. Physically, spiritually, emotionally and that all is going to depend upon a lot of times what they perceive themselves to look like in the mirror. And when they see what the last 365 days have resulted in, it may not be exactly what they want," said Amicone.
