"I have _got_ to start hitting a gym," mused Lee as he gazed into the mirror after his morning shower. Spending the majority of the decade since college in front of a PC may have gotten him a nice job, but it wasn't helping his already poor physique. While he hadn't gained near the weight of some of his coworkers, adding 15 lbs to his thin frame was significantly noticeable. Particularly when it was all distributed around his middle.
"Ok. After work, I'm going to see what's available. I've seen signs for that new 'Fitness Dome' place. Maybe they've got a special going or something."
After an uneventful day at the office, helping insurance agents figure out the difference between a "print" button and a "save" button, he pulls into the mostly empty parking lot of the new fitness center. Contrary to what the name would have you believe, it there didn't seem to be a dome anywhere around it. If anything, it looked rather bland and unassuming, like the other shops around it.
(Ah well, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Besides, I've got nothing to lose but my gut.)
Walking inside, he sees a receptionist who takes his name, and tells him to have a seat in the waiting area, that someone will be with him in a moment. Thanking her, he goes to sit down and wait.
