The Cold Hard Truth about the Gym ...

Since it's the new year, you've probably thought about joining a gym. Of course, you don't actually need to get a membership in order to get fit. You can just run around the block or buy a few machines to place inside of your own home. The gym is completely optional.

To prove that you don't actually need to waste your money on a membership, here's a realistic ad about gyms that would be on television if advertisements were actually honest:

Props to Cracked for creating the video. Do you have a gym membership, or do you prefer to work out at home?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I don't have much space at home for fitness equipment so I prefer going to the gym. I also feel motivated by going.

This may be true to an extent. I go to the gym and it motivates me and helps me a lot so it's not completely useless the way this video makes it sound.

I needed this! Made my night! :)

No, I prefer to exercise in other ways than the gym which could be boring and wasteful if the membership isn't useful.

I find it a social motivator, I have friends going to the gym this motivates me to go too

As Zahra mentioned I also have a gym membership and that within itself motivates me. Some people are different than others and to be honest when I start slacking but continue to see money taken out my account for my membership it makes me realize this is something I invested money in for my health. Use it. Before a membership it was here and there but once I signed a one year I've seen more progress and determination within myself than ever before.
