What do I call the workouts I like done out in fields when searching for a new trainer?

I'm looking to get back into the gym... without exactly going into a gym. I want to find a trainer that does workouts I like, but I don't even know what to call them to help narrow my search. Is there a term for football practice style workouts that don't take place in a gym? [more inside]

best form of working out?

I have been told recently that a short (say 20 minutes) series of sprints, hard workouts, is more efficient and better all around for fitness than slow long distance walking or running (jogging)...true or not?

Tell me everything about going to the gym

Okay here's a question. The other day I stepped on the bathroom scales and the number displayed was a tad on the high side, by about 15-20lbs, so my first thought was 'Yeesh, I should join a gym'. However on further reflection, having never set foot in a gym since my traumatizing school days joining one seems like quite a scary prospect. So my question is.. What's the deal with gyms? What's the ettiquette, what do you need, will all these fit gym types be chuckling at my pathetic flabby assed efforts, are the showers still those bloody communal type affairs I shudder to remember back in school?
