My niece owns the local gym and I get free access, but I don't go to it very often.

I tried home fitness, but it's too cramped and often gets cluttered. I only pay $10 a month for planet fitness, they're open when I'm awake, they have no house clutter, and there is a variety of equipment to choose from. Psychologically, it's easier to exercise at a gym too, I always did way less exercise when I was at the house.

Gym $$$ and annoying customers and employees

Used to love gym

Not anymore

Competing with customers for equipment

So meaningless



House small and no equipment

gyms are expensive. I use boundaries and gravity in my workouts.

Gyms have men's and women's locker room

Some people are homophobic

So do not want to go to either one

Changing clothes takes a lot of energy

Used to like lifting weights but now it seems pointless
