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.
If you love the gym, this isn't going to convince you of much, but if you are a bit sick of it, read these 5 reasons and then toss your membership.
#5: Gym Prices Tend to Be Rather Obscene.
If you're a student and you get a cheaper student gym with your university card, consider yourself very lucky. I had one, once, and it cost me next to nothing for an awesome, bright, airy gym that I loved. Once I moved to a big city, though? Forget it - hundreds a month, and not even close to as nice.
#4: The Kind of People Who Seriously Frequent Gyms? Nuts.
There's no other place in the world where you have to put up with the kind of people you do in a gym. There are tons of people there just to show off, and they come in and strut around in front of you just to boost their egos. Sure, if it's a beautiful woman or girls, a well-toned man, you probably don't mind, but otherwise, you've got better things to do.
#3: The Sweat of Others is Not Pleasant.
Yeah, the signs are all over the place and you want to hope that everyone in the gym is a nice, caring person who really will help you out by not leaving their sweat all over the machine, but the ugly truth is that most people simply don't wipe down the machines if they can get away with it.
#2: No One Likes Repetition, Over and Over and Over and Over...
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: Outdoors Equals No Costs and No Limits, Either.
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. - 29871
