First off I have no clothes you'd ever wear to a gym. I wear jeans and a t shirt pretty much daily (think Hank Hill). Second, I don't get what you do there. I hated gym time in school (workout gym, not like throwing balls and running around gym, thats fun) and I don't get what you do. Run on a treadmill and lift some weights? I feel like I could do all of that at home. Gym memberships are insanely expensive. Are home workouts actually effective? Does one even enjoy gym time?

You have some very good answers here. I’m just going to add to this and say what you pay for a gym membership compared to what you wouldpay for decent quality equipment at home. It’s cheaper to have the gym membership because you have the maintenance and the upkeep on the equipment andthe replacement cost on the equipment if you own it. Where as at the gym you go there The stuff is working.

Given a lot of it, you can replace in a fairly low cost way. But you still have the upkeep and maintenance. And you also have the space needed.

    True. And you have to move the equipment around haha. But I wonder if I need more than some weights and an elliptical for winter time when I can't bike

    My advice, do a lot of research figure out a gym that is easy to join and easy to get out of the membership or I should say to end the membership.

    Then go there try all the different weights. Try the different pieces of equipment. And take notes to what you would really need, what you would really want. That should tell you how much space you would really want or need, and also the cost
