anyone else a member of a gym? or just exercise regularly?
figured this would be a good spot to share advice, tips, inspiration, etc.

Been a gym....user most of my adult life (off and on). On at the moment and for the last year. Really making head way. Some of the BEST money I ever spent in my life has been a personal trainer. I like most people have their own opinion as to what is good and what brings results...etc. Much of what I thought was the best was either wrong or largely ineffective.
I don't need someone to "Ra Ra" and I do not go to the gym for company and conversation.
I told my guy I would do a month at a time here and there but not full time because it is not cheap ($180 p/mo @ 1 pr/wk) and I do not need hand holding. Just a tune up from time to time. He has provided my full workout and been a wealth of dietary info and Cardio for off (non-gym) days. Can't say enough good things about it. Bite the bullet and cut expense some place else. It will make ALL the effort you put in worth it.......Good Luck
