I hate that this is the person I've become. I hate that this is who I am now, but I feel like it's just my destiny. I can't believe these words are literally about to come out of my mouth, but now that I have gotten a taste of Equinox, I fear I can no longer go back to the 24 hours, the LA Fitnesses, the Planet Fitnesses, the Crunch gyms. Now that my brain has gotten a taste of what it feels like to have an amazing hit workout with an amazing instructor in the most beautiful studio I've ever seen in my life, followed by a beautiful walk/run on the most high-tech treadmill I have ever seen, followed by a shower in the cleanest, most luxurious public showers my eyes have ever feasted on, oiled up, moisturized, fresher than when I walked into the gym. And to end it off by stopping by the smoothie bar and having my smoothie already ready for me for pickup because I was able to order it via app while I was in those beautiful ass showers washing my crack. I can never go back. This is who I am now. You know, there's a saying: Once you reached the penthouse, the lobby no longer impresses you. Once you got a taste of first class, it is so hard to walk past those seats and sit in coach. I can never go back.
