Both have their good and bad. I prefer the outdoors since I'm a runner.0
-
I don't run yet so I am a gym gal.... Maybe one day I will be an outdoor gal. I do hike and like to bike ride.0
-
Both. When I go to the Gym, before going in I run two miles outside then weight train for about 1.5-2 hours.0
-
I would much rather be outdoors, which is why I have a hard time forcing myself to go to the gym to strength train rather than going outside for a run.0
-
I cycle outdoors, I lift in the gym...so I prefer both.0
-
Depends on what I'm doing... Never did it in the gym before.0

^^this. It's hard for me to pass up a good run on a nice day to hit the gym.0 -
I'd much rather be on my bike or working out at Red Rocks than in my gym. I'll always choose outdoors over indoors.0
-
Depends. Hiking and running are my favorite exercises, so I'd rather be outside in general. However, I don't do well in high humidity, mosquitoes love me (+ I'm allergic to their bites), and I'm generally allergic to nature... So, I'd rather be inside during the late spring and summer.0
-
Outdoors whenever possible. Unfortunately, my local trail run has neither a squat rack nor barbells, so. . . .0
-
Depends. What are we doing in the gym vs. outdoors? I don't know if I could ever do my lifting at an outdoor facility because I do like climate control (firstworldproblems). But, I don't think I could ever take a "walk" on a treadmill or use an indoor cycle because I love doing those things outside.0

gym for weights
outdoors for running0 -
I don't do the gym and I'm a fair weather runner. I skate indoors more than I do outdoors only because outdoor ice ruins my blades....so I'm a toss up0
-
I can't stand when it's ridiculous hot outside but if the weather is good then I don't mind either or.0
-
Outdoors as long as I remembered the sunscreen! I have two colors: pasty or lobster red0
