What I Like About Working Out At The Gym

Debby and I recently joined a gym. We decided it was better that trying to walk and run in 105 degree tempatures. We got a good deal on it. We didn't have to pay the down payment only the monthly payments for the next 12 months. If we work out everyday it will cost us less than a dollar a day. I thought about the things that I like about working out at the gym. Here they are:

• It's easier on my joints using the treadmill and recumbent bicycle than running around the neighborhood streets.
• They have televisions tuned to the news and the olympics and I can listen with my FM receiver on my Zune. It makes time go by faster.
• The machines gives me a calorie count of how many calories I'm burning.
• The machines show me my heart rate.
• Debby & I can do this together.
• It allows me to burn calories so that I can have dessert every so often after dinner.
• If it's raining I can still get in my workout.
• The place is air conditioned.
• I am able to listen to an audio book or sermon for an hour or two.
• I get a good cardio work out.
• There are so many types of machines I can work out different areas of the body.
• Satisfaction of knowing that working out is just good for you.
• I don't feel rushed to finish my workout.
• My joints don't hurt as much when I work out on these machines.
• It keeps my weight down.
• I don't feel like a couch potatoe anymore.
• I don't dread working out as much as I used to.
• So far, not body bugs me about paying for personal training.
• The machines are still in pretty good shape and so they work well.
• I can really work up a good sweat.

I would recommend a gym membership to anyone if you will use it. I hope I'm still using this gym membership after 6 months instead of just paying for it and not working out. I better!
