5 Ways to Quit Your Overpriced Gym Right Now.
Gyms are massively overrated. Maybe you are going to one now, or you had a great experience with one before, but let me tell you that there are plenty of reasons to give up the gym and find another way to work out.
And hey, if you're in love with the gym as-is, then you've got nothing to worry about. But if you're thinking of a change, peruse these 5 reasons and make a new choice.
#5: Prices are Sickeningly High.
Gyms are unbelievably expensive for what they offer. Is there anywhere else in the world where you go maybe 2, 3 times a week, do all the work yourself, and pay extremely steep fees for the privilege? Hey, if you've got a great gym and can afford it, more power to you. But there are just too many out there that are complete rip-offs.
#4: People in Gyms Can Go Insane.
People sometimes come to the gym so often that they literally lose their minds, forgetting that the gym is a venue to getting in shape, not the be all and end all of their social calendar. If your gym is full of these people, be warned - you could become one, too.
#3: You Think People Wipe Down, But They Don't.
While it should be standard practice to wipe down every single machine you use with a towel (and possibly a nice spray) before letting anyone else onto it, the fact of the matter is that not all the people at the gym are so warm and sunny. More times than I care to count I've seen people get off a machine and just leave it there, dripping, waiting for someone else to show up and clean the disgusting sweat off.
#2: No One Likes Repetition, Over and Over and Over and Over...
A good thing about the initial gym experience is that you can build up a routine: you go in, do the exercises you need to do, and then leave. But after a few months, unless you've become addicted to the effects of your workout, you will realize that staring at that same TV over and over, no matter what's on - well, it is boring. And after a while, boring becomes annoying.
#1: You are Completely Free Outside.
So you made it - you finally pulled yourself free from the glorified indentured servitude also known as 'working out in a gym'. Once the initial high of extreme happiness wears off, you'll be faced with an unfamiliar emotion - freedom. Run anywhere you want. Do whatever exercises you feel like, in your own house, out in a park, or in the damn street, if you want. But don't go back to paying $100+ every few weeks for the privilege of sweating very close to a bunch of other people. It's just not worth it. - 23806
