Now Is The Time I Wish I Had A Gym Membership

body fat percentageFor the last couple of days here in the UK the weather has been fantastic and really hot, the only downside for me at the moment is working out. My workouts are done in my back garden in my 16ft x 10ft wooden shed. Whilst I’ve got all the equipment in there that I will ever need, home gym machines that can work every part of my body. I’m finding it very uncomfortable working out, because when its get hot it’s like a sauna in there. I usually workout at around 5 pm, I am now finding myself working out at around 8 to 9 pm when the weather is not as hot.

The good thing about having a good gym membership, the gym is air conditioned so you can workout when the weather is hot and still not feel hot and drained.  Sometimes I find myself saying, isn’t it about time you rejoined a gym. Because during the winter months it can get very cold in my home gym as well. But I love the time that my home gym saves me compared to going to a commercial gym. You’ve got the drive to and from the gym to add to the time you spend there, I also find myself doing more talking than actually working out. The beauty of my home gym is I can lock myself in there for one hour, listen to music on my ipod and workout with no distractions.

Except when the weather gets to hot or to cold, which at the moment it’s just too damn hot. I’m glad were having nice weather though, because my body always responds better to exercise and I always tend to lose weight quicker and easier during the hotter summer months. I’m back to normal eating now after the 3 day tuna and water diet, and I feel fantastic because I’ve lost those few extra pounds that I have regained over the past few weeks. This time I am going to keep them off and start moving forward with my fat loss journey again.

It Wednesday today which means its a workout session in my home gym, think I will train with my russian kettle bells outside tonight. Because there’s absolutely no way I will be able to go anywhere near my home multi-gym which is located deep in the depths of my home gym. I’ve only just recently starting working out with kettlebells, but I’m finding they are giving me a fantastic workout and they are really working my core. My core is were I need to work the most and the kettle bells are helping in building up my core strength.

Sounds like you have all you need right at home. I had a pretty good setup for a while but it was used more for hanging laundry. I’m exclusively going to the gym now- it’s clean and cool and my laundry comes home with me.
