Gym math.

I’m not really bored, just a geek, so I figured out how much it costs me per session at the gym. It’s $115 for a month and, I think, $15 per class if you pay for it that way. So, I spent a bunch of time in LaTeX composing a table because I’m a geek.

So right now, I think I’ve made it to the gym six times this month, so that means I’m paying $19.17 per session. By the end of this week I should be ahead of the game. I’ll probably never look at this table much, but for some reason I felt compelled to make it. Like I said, I’m a geek.

Now compare this to how much I’m paying at LA Fitness. I paid $719.76 in December and I’ve been there once. That’s $719.76 per visit.

Normally, the hardest math I do at the gym is calculating how much I’m deadlifting. Weights on one side + weights on the other side + the bar. Simple addition, but for some reason I get tired and screw it up. Some time after calculus I stopped being able to do math and had to carry a calculator with me all the time.

Oh and if I were on a diet, it’s gone all pear shaped again. Yesterday I had an Al Pastor burrito at Don Pedro’s with a bottle of Mexican Coca-Cola. Yeah, the stuff with the REAL SUGAR in it. Today, I had a torta from Don Pedro’s with another bottle of Mexican Coca-Cola. I gave up normal Coke a long time ago for Diet Coke and non-Diet tastes way too syrupy to me now. But the stuff with the real sugar is spectacular.

If you don’t know what a torta is, it’s a loose meat sandwich and I think they soak the bun in grease. Whatever it touched, it left a stain, and it was also spectacular. I think cheeseburgers would probably be a step up.

  1. Just to help the diet, if you want good Mexican food, or at least close to the “real” stuff, Muchas Gracias by the Hillsboro courthouse. It is fast so you can swing it at lunch.
