I'm also reminded of the high-pressure, guilt-ridden sales tactics I had to endure when I had to set an appointment just to cancel my recurring 24-Hour Fitness membership in person.

"So, why did you stop taking your health seriously?"



When I stopped teaching fitness classes part time and move to the other side of town (ie metro Atlanta - an hour drive) where the gym wasn’t the meeting spot for my social circle, I started really not like going to the gym and having to squeeze it in with everything else.

I’ve had a treadmill in my house/apartment for years -that I actually used - when we moved I made sure that we had a spare bedroom that I could turn into a gym.

I love working out at home, in front of my TV or listening to a podcast. I can work out anytime, I’m still at home with my family and my wife will work out with me occasionally. She still likes going to the gym and working out with her friends.
