First time going to Gym - Dreaded feeling!

[dannywaugh1]

Hi all,

I'm looking to join my local JD Gym which is close to my house. But and I'm sure most of you will also admit that feeling dread the first time going in.

I'm 5.7 around 18st and have started to eat better and get out on my bike with my son who is 7. I also tend to go out myself an do an hour or so but feel the gym would also help.
But as said above its the dreaded feeling of going in for the first time thinking ' what others are thinking about me, are they looking etc'

I'll be honest I'm usually not fussed about what people think but this has be stumped. I think it is because I've never been!

Any advice or recommendations would be great!

Thanks all!

Thank you all for the advice I'm going cal the gym and have a conversation about joining and getting in some PT sessions to get to grips and above all be safe last thing I want is to hurt myself etc.

Plus going to think about planning some time in the gym and out on the bike each week also.
