I went to the Bryant Park Blink Fitness in-between shows today. What a change of pace. It was PACKED. I mean, a line for the treadmills. There was not a single aerobic machine free.

It’s was kinda crazy, but expected since it was right after work for these 20 something professionals – all who are physically fit. All of them except this not-yet-physically-fit 53 year old professional. A profession musician. Isn’t it interesting how the use of the word professional means certain things? I guess for most, it means the suit and tie/pantsuit wearing corporate type.

Blink tends to have a certain clientele. The location close to my place in the Bronx (Bedford Park) has pretty people too. They are just a bit more brown, but equally physically fit.

I’m glad I found a gym near my night job. It’s quite convenient and I feel great after a good workout.

It’s also inspiring. If I keep this up, maybe I’ll get back into the shape I was at 25. To get back there, I also might need to color my hair black again…and talk to LeBron James to learn the secrets of reversing baldness and receding hairlines.
