Box 11 writing assignement

The subculture that I chose to do is the fitness room at Irving Gym in Ball State University.  I chose this subculture because I regularly go to the Irving fitness room on a daily basis and have come accustomed to the atmosphere and the certain people that workout there on a daily basis as so do I.  Some fixed positions that I can use to my advantage would be my age.  The majority of the people that I workout with are not but 2 years of difference from my age.  Gender is another big one.  Mainly males are in the fitness room when I am present, but I would also like to survey the female side of things in the fitness room.  Some subjective postitions I have date back to my early childhood.  As a boy and going into adolescence I was quite heavy and was not in good shape at all.  I was overweight and I knew that if I kept it up, my future would be in jeopardy, so I have began to eat healthier and live a physical lifestyle and this is why I spend an average of 2 hours in the fitness room per day.
