I, personally, am not a gym person. I know everyone says they don’t have time but I literally do not have time. The only way I could make time would be if I slept less, but that would be more harmful to my body than the time at the gym would be beneficial. I have just enough time to start my workout the second I need to exercise. Translation: I don’t have time to drive to the gym, find parking, check into the gym, and wait for a machine. By the time that happens, I eat up all of the time I had to exercise. I’m someone who, also, doesn’t plan on being a fitness model or bodybuilder. I just need a decent amount of cardio—enough to keep my doctor off of my back—so spending money on the fancy equipment and trainers that come with gyms doesn’t seem like a smart investment to me. But, if you are like me and you do all of your exercising anywhere but the gym, you know the struggles. Here are struggles only people who exercise outside the gym understand.
Disturbing your neighbors
You’d like to run up and down your apartment building’s stairs but the pounding of your feet disturbs the neighbors. You wouldn’t mind trying some more advanced dance workouts on Amazon Prime or Netflix, either, but you’re afraid the pounding of your feet would upset your downstairs neighbors, too.
