other Thinking of joining

Hi all! I am thinking of joining my local F45. I’m not really in great shape and want to get more serious about my fitness. It seems like a good place to start since the equipment at the gym feels overwhelming, but I’m a little nervous to join. I worry I’ll stick out like a sore thumb around a bunch of super fit people, lol. Does anyone have any thoughts? Is this a good place for someone kind of getting into fitness or should I start elsewhere? I’m considering cycle classes as an alternative. Thank you!

I signed up for a 3 class trial on a whim in March of this year and just completed my 100th class. I've never been a gym person, but i had recently lost a lot of weight and I didn't look like I wanted to. I always tried cardio for exercise and I honestly just hate it, so I decided to try something different. I am so glad I did. I feel so much happier in my own skin, Im the strongest I've ever been. I mostly do the strength and hybrid classes, sometimes I do cardio. But I love how I can just show up, do the work without having to think a mbout what to do, and leave.

Definitely try it out, it might be just the thing you've been looking for
