>>76401598 (OP)I lift in the privacy, comfort, accessibility and privacy of my own domicile. My equipment is only used by me; it is custom set to my exercises of choice. I never have to wait for my turn to use it. I can blast whatever music I want from my own speaker. I can start cooking dinner as I finish up my workout. I can lift in a ridiculous outfit, or none at all if I feel like it. I can wait as long as I want between sets without being bothered. I can lift every day and do 1 exercise a day if I feel like it and the gas and time won't make it a bad trade-off.
I was forced to use a public gym this year for over 6 weeks. How anyone does this long term is a mystery to me. It's really no wonder most people stop going to the gym after a couple of months. The atmosphere and clientele are some of the most insufferable I have ever had the displeasure of experiencing.
Don't be part of the lumpenprole still paying to share equipment. Ascend to the master race. Invest in a home gym today.
