hitting the gym
Going to exercise
Hitting the gym means going to work out at a fitness center.
The phrase emphasizes the act of going rather than the exercise itself, often implying routine or determination: I've been hitting the gym three times a week.
Someone who says they need to hit the gym may be noting they've been neglecting exercise.
