    I've been very against gyms ever since I realised that most of the machines in the Gym could be substituted in every day life eg cycling/running. Really doing body weight strength training should really be enough to help you gain muscles and burn some extra fat. I'm not opposed to buying weights if and when I need to as at least you don't have to pay a small fortune every month just to use them.

    $20-40 a month is a small fortune?

    For some people, yes. That is a small fortune. It's one of many reasons I have yet to join a gym or buy work out equipment. The money just isn't there.

    Kate and I have both lost 30+lbs and have gotten a ton stronger in the past 6 mths without setting foot in a gym. It's all about what floats your boat. In the winter here, -30 is common, and -40 happens often enough too, so it was always the perfect excuse to not go. Started working out at home with my TV and I'm never looking back!
