Why Gyms Suck!

Here are couple more reasons why you have to start working out at home instead of the gym. Take the time to read the following to get a better understanding:
1. Terrible trainers. We both know that trainers are at the gym because they get paid for it. They don’t actually care about you, your body, your muscles, your workout or your health. They are there to take the money. They are kind of like a machine to make money. You walk in you go through the usual protocol, you walk out (after you pay of course).
A much better solution is to get some good equipment, buy a tape and work out at home. Your initial cost might be higher, but if you spread it throughout a couple months — as a payment plan or something — you’ll actually realize that you’re saving money instead of wasting it.
2. Lack of control. When he workout at the gym is totally dependent on what the gym has to offer. You’re dependent on the on the equipment they have, the quality of the trainers, the time schedule, your budget, and all that. You have very little control over the situation. Even if you do find the gym that you actually like, you’ll have to wait for your turn and waste a lot of time, so you’re always dependent on someone.
3. Fees. I don’t know if we have talked about this or not, but the fees can really kill you. The gym is asked to pay each and every month, and sometimes if you can’t go and your workout session doesn’t actually happened, you still have to pay. This is very frustrating at times especially if your job forces you travel a lot. If you go to your training you’ll pay a lot of money, but if you miss your training sometimes you will waste even more money because you will not be refunded most of the time.
4. Faulty equipment. I don’t think I really need to explain this one. Some equipment is broken, and because of this it can even be dangerous, or sometimes it’s not suitable for your particular circumstances. You get my point…
