Good-intentioned new members to a gym trying to live up to their New Year's Resolutions. Along with aggressive gym promotions, this leads to a mass increase in gym membership. As a result, gymigrants are often unfairly ostracized for decreasing the availability of gym equipment and programs, and are the target of crude remarks due to a feeling of superiority and entitlement by long-time gym members. All the gymigrants want is to make a new gym-life for themselves and fit in.
