Going for a 2-mile run is one thing, get on a bike for a 60min high intensity spinning class in the middle of December knowing it is on the schedule makes it harder to bail, at least for me. The gym is a hell of a lot more fun for me in the middle of February, rather than working out. Plus there is more eye candy in the winter  especially in a college town! |
so, how much weight have you lost? I dropped 50 and spent zero (ok I bought new running shoes)the effort for most people just commuting to the gym 5 times a week is more time than I spend exercising and thats a fact. 5 minutes for me to dress, grab ipod, 30 minutes to run, home/shower - 5 minutes. done. Thats all I did to lose the weight. no machines, no waits, no crowds, no $ and most importantly - no excuses.
As a typical democrat, you need to spend money needlessly and require others to help you achive your goals.
“50 percent of all new health club members quit within the first six
months of signing up, according to the International Health, Racquet &
Sportsclub Association.”
1 in 5 club members use their club at least twice per week.
40% of those who join health clubs stop going soon afterwards.
In the article Time Management Facts and Figures by Dr. Donald E.
Wetmore, it says that 90% of those who join health and fitness clubs
will stop going within the first 90 days.
