I’ve always struggled with the concept of gyms. Obviously they are there to help you get fit and lose weight, but fundamentally they are there to make money from us unfortunate people who like cake too much.
I’ve been to a gym, i’ve been a member of a gym. I did get fitter and the weight had started to slide away and, dare I say, I might have even started to tone up – even build muscle. And for my brief time at the gym, once I had gotten over my embarrassment of looking like a wimp in a room full of exercise fanatics, I had started to enjoy going.
Then after a year I stopped going and stopped being a member. Mainly because it cost me a lot of money and I had to book my time and drive too far to get to it. My motivation was not strong enough and my ever emptying bank balance was also informing my opinion that it might not be a great idea to keep going.
However, if I had the facility to train at home and knew that once I had paid for my gym equipment then I could go whenever I wanted and train for however long I wanted without being asked to move on to the next piece of machinery by an intimidating beef-cake of a guy, I might be persuaded to take it up again. After all my jeans are getting a bit tight.
Placing a log cabin in my garden would create the perfect environment for my Log Cabin home gym as I have no spare rooms and I don’t think that the floor would hold the equipment anyway. I’d be able to go at least twice a day, if I desired, and use only the gym equipment I needed to use and after the initial payment I would never have to pay gym membership again.
An added bonus would be the day light and fresh air that I would be able to take advantage of, which I never received when I drove ten miles to the gym twice a week, to help me train longer and more efficiently.
I thought about putting in a plasma screen and a surround sound system for music videos to watch whilst training, a fridge and maybe even a shower, if I could work it in, and I’d be right at home.
