Gyms are all the same. Sure, you could be trudging your way to one right now, or perhaps you lost some weight in one earlier, but I'm telling you, there are loads of good reasons to quit going and exercise in a different way.
If you love the gym, this isn't going to convince you of much, but if you are a bit sick of it, read these 5 reasons and then toss your membership.
#5: It Costs Way Too Much.
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: The Kind of People Who Seriously Frequent Gyms? Nuts.
There's no other place in the world where you have to put up with the kind of people you do in a gym. There are tons of people there just to show off, and they come in and strut around in front of you just to boost their egos. Sure, if it's a beautiful woman or girls, a well-toned man, you probably don't mind, but otherwise, you've got better things to do.
#3: You Think People Wipe Down, But They Don't.
Yeah, the signs are all over the place and you want to hope that everyone in the gym is a nice, caring person who really will help you out by not leaving their sweat all over the machine, but the ugly truth is that most people simply don't wipe down the machines if they can get away with it.
#2: Repetition Breeds Contempt.
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: Outdoors Equals No Costs and No Limits, Either.
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.
