Gyms are all the same. Sure, you could be trudging your way to one right now, or perhaps you lost some weight in one earlier, but I'm telling you, there are loads of good reasons to quit going and exercise in a different way.
Gyms are all the same. Sure, you could be trudging your way to one right now, or perhaps you lost some weight in one earlier, but I'm telling you, there are loads of good reasons to quit going and exercise in a different way. So hey, if you're already a gym fan, no worries, but if you're unsure, check out these 5 reasons why. #5: Gym Prices Tend to Be Rather Obscene. Face it - the gym is expensive. If you are living in a big city, memberships can run upwards of $100/month, and there are no compensation if you don't happen to go for a few weeks. Unless you're lucky and have access to a student gym on the cheap, paying full membership price will seriously hurt your wallet. Gyms like making money. #4: You Don't Want to Become a "Gym Rat". Ever. You start to see the same people over and over at the gym, and they get into specific routines. These routines can become more and more absurd, because these people know they're being watched in close quarters. That is why you have to deal with the spectacle of Mr. thickest-neck-ever coming in and grunting his way through 30 unnecessarily heavy repetitions in front of you. Nowhere else in the world do you have to put up with stuff like that. #3: You Think People Wipe Down, But They Don't. Sure, the paper towels (or dirty towels brought from home) and the little spray bottles are there, but really loads of people just don't bother to wipe down the machines they've been using before. You can block it out of your mind, but that only works until you sit down on a machine that is dripping with sweat and realize it is definitely not your own. #2: Doing the Same Crap Every Day Will Drive You Insane. A good thing about the initial gym experience is that you can build up a routine: you go in, do the exercises you need to do, and then leave. But after a few months, unless you've become addicted to the effects of your workout, you will realize that staring at that same TV over and over, no matter what's on - well, it is boring. And after a while, boring becomes annoying. #1: Welcome to a World Without Limits. If you work out at home or outdoors, you can literally go wherever you want. You can invent new running routes every single day, stop in a different park and do body weight exercises, take a resistance band out in public and work out there is no limit when it comes to opening and closing hours, no boring repetition, and no costs.
