One of the top reasons overweight people fear the gym, is because they worry about other people. They worry about people looking, staring, making comments between them and friends. I'm not saying you're an asshole, I'm saying I was an asshole who talked smack about gym goers that weren't up to par. My point is that hopefully, you can learn sooner than I did, that negativity only brings more negativity. Be positive and be nice to people, regardless of your beliefs. It's the essence of open-mindedness. Then again, it's a free country, you may do as you wish.
Just so you know, folks who do cardio only are MUCH MUCH healthier than us weight lifters.
