Question

1/23/13
today, my roommate and i went to the campus gym to work out. while we were there, my roommate remarked, \there are two types of people at the gym: those who are there to work out and those who are there to hang out.\ as i looked around, i could tell what she meant. the \work out\ group has old, mismatched gym clothes on that might or might not be clean. members of this group dont care how they look at the gym because they are there to sweat. people in this group also tend to do their workout solo; they often listen to a portable music player to help them focus. the other group, the \hang out\ group, travels in pairs or packs. they tend to wear high - end athletic clothes. also, the \hang outters\ arent pushing themselves to get their best workout. in fact, they seem to have plenty of breath to gossip. i realized this might make an interesting topic to research: why do most people go to the gym? the answer might not be the obvious one, which is to stay in shape. i think the reason people go to the gym might be more motivated by the chance for social interactions.
