The Total Gym XLS May Seem Expensive But It’s Actually Far Less Expensive Than A Gym Membership

The other day I started adding up the amount of money I spent on me and my wive’s gym membership and I was amazed at the amount it really costs. Over the last two years I’ve actually spent more than 00 on our gym memberships! And then I realized that if we were members for 10 years that I would end up spending over 000, assuming that the price doesn’t increase!

I then started to think about how much time we waste driving to and from the gym. The ride to and from the gym is 20 minutes each way. Instead of sitting in a car for those 40 minutes we should instead be spending that time doing something constructive. And of course this drive is often used as an excuse not to go work out. It’s also economically, and environmentally for that matter, important to consider the amount of gas spent on these trips to and from the gym!

With all things considered it becomes clear that seemingly expensive home gym equipment like the Total Gym XLS is actually a really good deal. Consider this, if I spend 00 on the Total Gym XLS and I use for 10 full years then I’ve actually saved over ,000 compared to what I would have spent on a gym memembership for those 10 years!

With a home gym there are less excuses available for not working out which leads to reaching fitness goals much more quickly. I actually like to do my weight lifting with my Total Gym equipment and then do my cardio exercise with my Wii Fit game or simply taking a jog outside. And yes Wii Fit is really a lot of fun, I highly recommend it.

While I’m on the top of fitness I do want to mention that weight lifting and cardio exercise is not enough on it’s own if you are trying to lose weight fast. You should also start a diet program as well. I don’t believe in the idea of only dieting or only doing exercise, you really need to do both. And the diet that I recommend is called The Day Off Diet. I recommend it because it’s easy to follow and it’s also extremely effective.
