Yes, I belong to a gym , but it is a local gym.  Unfortunately, having a membership is not necessarily the push I need to actually go to the gym lol.

I have canceled gym memberships many times. I never seemed to go. I can get all the exercise I need at home. But if you will actually USE your membership, it will be worth it no matter which gym you choose.

we belong, as a family, to the local rec center (Bowie sport fit) and it's a tennis/raquetball club as well-- but we use it for the fitness center, babysitting, swim lessons and toddler fitness classes.  We love it --- wish we went more often but we do enjoy it as a family :)

I used to go to the gym at least three times a week. I don't anymore... I know I should because I find tired and having less energy. I have a wii system that can somewhat help with some of the exercise but I don't use it either. I find that going to the gym alone is the most boring and discouraging thing. You have have a buddy system when you're working out.

My husband and I started going to the ymca. It's fun ^_^. I just have to keep forcing my husband to go. I hate how small it is, but it's close by so that makes up for it.

in my honest (and professional opinion) you don't need an expensive pedometer --- all are about as inaccurate as the next, the general idea is to get MORE steps than you did previously -- any pedometer can do that.

I belong to Planet Fitness...I don't go as much as I should, but I enjoy it. I'd much rather work out from home though...It's al ot more relaxing.  :)

I wish I could motivate myself to get to the gym.  I am so tired all the time and never want to  leave but I know that going to a gym would be great for me.

I have been going to the gym 4-5 days a week for 6 years (except for about 8 months when I was pregnant and right after the baby). For me, it's enough motivation to go knowing I'm paying for it.

Guess I'm weird, I love it!!

24 hour Fitness for the last 5 months, before that a gym called Fitness 19.

Years ago I  had a gym membership, but cancelled it.  Got to be too expensive and didn't always feel like getting dressed to go to the gym so I bought my own equipment and work out at home.  The only thing I miss is the steam room and sauna.

I go 3 times a week.  My gym is open 24 hours, is never very busy, and is a 10 minute walk from my house. Can't beat it!

I used to go to the family branch of the YMCA, but sadly, but step-dad got laid off, and we couldn't pay for the membership. It was fun, though. I got to play basketball, volleyball, run/jog, work out on tredmills, etc. I loved it, and it was a great way to get in shape. Now I just sit around all day. It's really sad.
