An offer I could not refuse!

So I had resigned myself to working out at home and running in the neighborhood. However, I received a flyer promoting a $10 per month gym membership not too far away. I went by the gym to check it out because I was convinced there had to be a catch.

I received a free 7-day pass so I tried it out for a week. I soon learned about the enrollment fee of about $79 (They claimed it was a special at 1/2 of the regular price) and a maintenance fee later in the year of $49. Child care and classes would cost a lot more than $10 per month. I usually hate aerobic classes and I don't have kids so all that a la carte bullshit didn't bother me too much. So with both fees and $10 per month it was cheaper than most gyms.

The guys in the weight room leave the weights on the machines and on the floor but other that that it was a fairly decent gym. I decided to sign up because it was just an offer I could not refuse. I know I said I would purchase anything else fitness related but during that free week I realized I cannot get the high number of calories burned at home. I am glad I am going to gym now. I am more motivated and I can I see how many calories I am burning with each workout.
