    My favorite so far is .....

    "I can't go until next week when I meet with my personal trainer....."


    LOVED that one, apparently we need personal trainers to actually get our heart rates up now

    Yes! Walking in the snow or shoveling snow is an awesome workout and the worst excuse for not working out!

    I've heard "because it's raining, I don't want to go outside" from one of my flatmates. Bearing in mind the uni gym is literally a minute or two away from our block, if that.

    Actually have a friend that says "I cant afford it" yet can do a zillion other things she wants to that costs more than what the gym would.

    I'm not going to bother wasting my money on a gym. I can get all the exercise I need at home or outside.

    Does that count as an excuse?

    ohhh...let's see. Your friends are too busy on their phones to notice the pins were not set right and the barbell took you down, or maybe it was the stalker dude following me home from Powerhouse Gym. There are some that are valid.

    It closes in three hours, so I can just go tomorrow sometime.

    Said by me when I just didn't want to go.

    Same here. I don't have an extra $33 a month to spend on a gym membership. Add to that, I'm out a vehicle, so I'd have to take a bus there (which is an extra $4 round trip every time you go). Might as well work out at home or around the neighborhood and save money. Carrying groceries 2 miles home is actually a pretty good work out. My excuse: I don't need a gym membership to motivate myself.

    Dude for some reason this seems to be a good excuse for a lot of college students not to go to class too lol!

    I guess I'm bad becasue I will always skip the gym for this reason!

    On the up side you can always count it as cardio!

    Yeah...I live 30 miles from anything like a gym...so snow may very well be a good reason to stay home.
