Nope, you can do all the exercise you need at home or outside for free. If you want to get ripped like machoman, I guess that's different, but you can get pretty big without the gym.

What if your job requires excessive physical labor like lifting 300 pound ranges single handedly? And STILL have energy to work out! I love manual labor.:P

Yup, I go five times a week and rest on weekends. It has become part of my schedule. At first I was going around 3 times a week, but now I raised it to 5. I enjoy it!

I find it takes a lot of time and energy to go from my house to a gym. I just use dead weights, push ups, and go for runs outside.

I have a funny story about how i got into my gym. Last year. I was checking out this mma gym and they were giving me a tour. When we came across the jiujitsu mats, isaw a HOLE IN THE WALL. The trainer casually told me somebody's head went through it.:shock: Next week when i went back to sign up, there were TWO holes in the wall.

I work out down in the basement of the hotel I currently live in. It's mostly Nautilus gear, so I can't expect to get a well-rounded workout.

May I advise you to exercise every other day or three times a week? You need at least one day of rest after exercise. Too much can be harmful or may cause muscles to develope slower.

Been to two free classes at a gym this weekend and am thinking of getting a 1 yr membership it's almost $1k for the year and im out of town for uni during the week so it's not gonna be much value until holidays but still I'm very excited :D Can barely bend/sit the last 2 days and ive been working out regularly for over a year :D Just cos it's different I guess. What do you enjoy most at the gym, what do they offer? Wish this place had a pool :( Heaps of fun classes and machines though. :)

School can count. I walk easily 2 miles a day to my classes (Ohio State). That being said, I still go to the gym :P

I'm alternating between marathon training and weight training (to counteract the weight loss from the running). I started up when I quit smoking and just sort of got hooked. Can't wait for the good weather so I can start running outdoors.

No, although I wouldn't mind going as long as I didn't have to pay :lol: The " Fitness First " here though is kind of funny. On the left side they have a McDonald's drive thru, and on the right they got Krispee Kreme with a drive thru. I feel like that gym is setting people up to fail and be members forever.

Nah, they'll thrive on the guilt of the McDonalds customers, just like women's magazines make money advertising weight loss programs on the pages following the recipes and images of anorexic models.

I did when I was at school and probably will at Uni sometime, but I go running and do the odd press-ups in the morning and swimming occasionally. I don't feel the need to go to the gym 24-7.

Yes it's that each body part needs at least a day of rest.

I go to my university's gym every Friday. My tuition pays for its "free" service. I would go more frequently, but theres a lack of freetime.
