Morning all :-)

I'm thinking about quitting my gym.

I find it cardio machines boring. I love getting my bike out and cycling outside.
Also I have 40kg dumbels at home that I use.

What I'm worried about is that weight machines give me more choice in strength training excersises than my dumbels.

I only just started strength training and I'm worried that my dumbels are not good enough. I want to be lean, mean sexy machine lol

On the other hand £35 a month for the gym hardly use s waste of money.

What do you all think??

    I use both! I try to switch up my routines to hit every single muscle! try looking on bodybuilding.com for exercises on targeting every muscle. The guys and girls showing the different exercises are intimidating but its usually the best for each muscle group@!

    Thank you Jodi!
    I decided to keep the gym. I went to bodybuilding.com and started Jamie Eason Live Fit trainer. As you said: some exercises I can do at home but most I need machines, so as long as I use the gym 3 times a week it will pay for itself :-)

    Thank you x
