Hollywood hits the gym

Britney Spears and a pal hit the gym. Britney's got the right idea; it's always easier to stay motivated about a New Year's resolution like getting in shape if we have a friend to nag us about our diet plan and keep us company at the gym. Even Hollywood's doing it. Nothing says motivating like trying to keep up with Hollywood. We can even--for a hefty price--wear the clothes that they wear to the gym and work out on the same machines. It's because we all want to look like we belong in Hollywood too. We want to look like we spend an hour in the gym every day, but without actually spending that hour in the gym. Of course, we could always claim a likeness to a celeb who clearly doesn't hit the gym all that often...but it wouldn't be very nice to name names. I come back to my point though; the best way to stay motivated is to drag a friend along to the gym. If you have a friend who already goes to the gym faithfully, great! Piggy-back off of them! If not, maybe you have a friend who is also trying to work up the motivation to get to the gym more often. Perhaps by making a commitment to each other rather than just yourselves you can finally make good on those promises to go to the gym and work out.
