on your first day u wanna take it light and steady and just get a feel for the diffrent machines/weights there and if in doubt ask a trainer how to use it/do it properly.

best of luck and hope u enjoy it!

as snoop says - go and find out your limits and strengths. Make sure to do a very good stretch and warm up before you do anything.

What are you trying achieve? Bulking up or toning?
