Exactly this. It doesn't matter what it is. Join a gym, volunteer, find a meetup, take up a hobby, etc. We all need something to look forward to to carry us past the doldrums. Anticipation and a sense of "belonging" can help so much.
- cwbrandsma 7y agoI've yet to find a community at a gym. Most people are heads down and doing their thing there. Gyms are an introverts paradise.
- sobani 7y agoThat depends on the type of gym. I'd say that the chance of finding a community in a gym is inversely proportional to the amount of machines it has. Try a gym that doesn't even have a treadmill.
- snarf21 7y agoIt definitely depends on the type. Some gyms are very "class" based. Planet Fitness ==> heads down. Crossfit or Orange Theory ==> much bigger sense of community.
