Is a gym membership a sound investment?

The answer is, yes if you go regularly and get the most out of the equipment!

There are alternatives however, home based workouts can be very effective if done correctly.

I have done a fair bit of research and I believe that an average exerciser can get the results and progression in the comfort of your own home.

Remember anything weighs something, whether that be a dumbbell or your own body. Force and resistance can be generated with a variety of everyday things as well.

Press up variations, body weight squats and star jumps are just a few examples of effective exercises that can be done anywhere.

So before you sign up to a fancy gym with more TV's than treadmills, think about what you could spend that money on with your new "don't leave the house" physique!
