This is a question Gyms

I used to go to the gym until I realised that the amount of money I was spending on going and using several cardio machines would be better spent buying those machines.

I was spending nearly £100 per month for Mrs BDI and myself to indulge in rubbish music and queues for machines.

Admittedly you need room for the machines, but you don't have the excuse for no time as they are sat at home. Decent running machine costs roughly £1000 which is only 10 months gym and decent excercise bike from about £300.

*POP* ouch, relurks

You were paying £1200 pa for your gym?

You'd do well to get below £40pcm in London.

Yes, there are the budget community gyms at £20pcm but they tend to be poorly maintained places with broken equipment and odd opening hours.
