I find working from home as a big advantage for me because of the convenience. I will admit when I didn’t work out from home there were times I would say that I would go to the gym and never go, but now that I have a home gym it’s that much easier because I can work out whatever time of the day I would like all in the comfort of my own home. There are some days I prefer working out in the mornings while others I prefer the afternoon, but that’s the great thing about having a home gym…having unlimited hours of working out. Nevertheless, working out at home has both its advantages and disadvantages, but in my opinion the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. My home gym consists of a Smooth Fitness 5.65 Treadmill, a Nordic Track Elliptical and many workout DVDs to include Zumba and Leslie Sansone’s walking DVDs.
Advantages of working out from home:
- Saves time because there is no need to drive to the gym when you can work out in the privacy of your own home which will allow you to save money on gas.
- At home you can watch television and listen to music freely at your own discretion
- No dress code which means you can dress how you want without anyone having to see what you are wearing.
- Unlimited hours of working out
- Convenience
- Saves money since there is no gym membership fee
Disadvantages of working out from home:
- no change of scenery
- many distractions i.e. family
- not as many equipment choices
- working out alone which can be lonely at times
Which do you prefer..working out at home or in a gym and why? DO TELL!!!!

Because of the distraction factor, I like working out in a gym. I also like gyms that have child care.
I have to work out at the gym! I think the people working out at the gym give me a little friendly competition. Its all mental for me. If I worked out at home I would be lagging it. Too many distractions!!!
