Working out at home VS. Working out at a Gym....which one is for you??

I excersise at home. I have gone to the gym and it is great but I really can't afford it. It takes a whole lot more self discipline too. I actually think that self-discipline is really good. I just have to do my hula hooping every day and my pushups or else I feel so guilty. If you push yourself to do it everyday for a week then it becomes a habit and the day is just not good if you don't take time for it. It's kind of like flossing and brushing the teeth....it all is natural and it doesn't feel right if you don't.

I prefer going to the gym because I find myself being pushed further when I see people around me going about their routine and some of them look absolutely gorgeous. When I'm home, there are so many distractions. Apart from that, at the gym, there's more to do because of the equipment available and classes available, too. Paying for the membership is another motivation for me because I don't want my money to go to waste :-)

I work out more at home than I do at the gym. We have a membership to our local YMCA and there really are a lot of things we can do to work out there. Full equipment, swimming pool, hot tub, classes, everything, but I still do more at home. One reason is time. I have more time to work out at home while other things are also being accomplished, whereas, if I were at the gym, that is all Iwould be accomplishing at the time. Another reason is that it seems to take a lot more to pack everybody up with our gear to go to the gym than t does to simply start working out at home. And yet another reason, which is probably the worst on eof all for me, is that I am very self-conscious about the way I look. If I go with my husband, I feel a bit foolish because he is in way better shape than I am, and I feel like people look at me weird as a result.

i don''t work out any where i can't do much of anything anymore i know it is good for you and the ones that can now need to i think the videos would be great you do them when you want to and as long as you can.good luck

I used to do my workout in the gym, and I quite enjoyed watching macho guys lifting dumbells in front of me. Sometimes I got inspiration from other people's workout routines and added bits of it into mine. But since I moved to another city, it costs more to use te gym, I stopped going to the gym. Luckily, I got some dumbells from my friend as Christmas presents, I can do some weight training at home. I also get some ideas for my workout on the Internet. Now I just do my excercises at home or in the garden. It works perfectly fine to me. Time is more flexible and I save lots of money!

Training at home or at the gym... this is interesting so here are my thoughts. If you're serious about gaining muscle and looking good, a gym will be the best place to go to. Not only will you have access to all the free weights and machines, but you will also find people willing to help you and who have the required know-how to be a spotter. At home, you can't do this. Don't tell me that you can get as much muscle training at home with a couple of dumbbells as you would in the gym. Of course, if you are serious about your training at home, you can get yourself a couple of things that will be useful: a sturdy bench, a squat rack, etc but you must have some space for them. To sum it up, on the long run, training at home is a plus, if you get the right things. But if we're talking for a couple of months to a year, go to a gym.

hi friend, i like both and pass more times on it.
