the thing about the gym is - it keeps you motivated. and it forces you to work out. yes it's a hassle going there bur once you're there - you're there to work out. if you're at home it's easy to push it off or get distracted. Not to mention - you have a much wider variety of excersises you can do at the gym. plus you're taught technique. and many people enjoy the social aspect of it. since cobid shutdown many people have been locked inside their homes and don't get out enough. getting a few weights might work for some but I think for most people they just sit in the garage and never get used.

Gym definitely has its perks - the structured environment, variety of equipment, and social aspect can all be motivating factors. But at the same time, it's important to remember that the gym isn't the only way to stay fit and healthy. With a little creativity and resourcefulness, it's possible to get a great workout at home, or even just by going outside and taking a walk or run. The key is finding activities that you enjoy and that fit your lifestyle, and being consistent in incorporating them into your routine. Happy sweating!
