Ashley, I joined a gym (YMCA) and it made me
pack on the pounds, last year. Interestingly, my brother had the same exact experience. He was also working out at at gym and he lost his attractive physique.
I am a healthy, slim weight to begin with. But I joined the gym to firm up and feel better with more energy, and more muscle definition.
Let me tell you, I looked like hell after going to that gym 4x weekly. I looked like a big ugly thick brick.
