I'm not a big guy 150 pounds but I used to play hockey outside with some friends 2 days a week in the summer for a few hours, play tennis on weekends and hit the gym on off days. Doing all these activities allowed me to eat like crap and still look "good" Now that it's winter time, I obviously can't do a lot of outdoor things. I've been doing my best to hit the gym 4-5 times a week but going to the gym all the time gets a little boring. So what are you doing to stay in shape for the winter?

I was feeling the same way a couple months back, I had been a member of WHC or Golds for the past 6-7 years and was getting bored going to the gym and simply lifting weights/running all the time. So I quit Gold's (that was fun...) and joined the Talismen Centre and it has definitely rejuvenated my interest.
Now instead of only being able to lift weights or run on the treadmill, I also have the option of swimming, playing basketball, playing volleyball, playing badminton, running on one of the indoor tracks, joining one of their bazillion classes, diving off the diving boards (makes you feel like a kid again!) or simply sitting in the hot tub or steamer after a nice workout.
It's probably not for everyone, but I can honestly say that joining a facility with a wide range of options has made me look forward to everyday I go to the gym, and I am going 5 days a week.
