"Do you watch yourself in the mirror when you work out." So far the results are Yes 31% No 40% I don't work out 29% Haha I thought EVERYONE looked at themselves in the mirror while working out. I know I do!! Just curious how about you guys?! Do you or no

I don't see how you could workout without a mirror, I mean you need to watch your form while your lifting sometims or you won't know if your doing it wrong! -------------- - Its never about how much you can lift, or how many reps you do. Its just about doing it, and doing it right. ~Brad~

I just said yesterday that the mirrors at our gym are rigged to make us all look fat so we will keep working harder. -------------- ~Victoria~ ...There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.--Beverly Sills

I think they should wear more sometimes. Then I realize it is just my weekness that is the problem, and enjoy.
