I used to work in a health club selling memberships for over 2 years and as you could imagine I have heard every excuse for why not to exercise. My best advice in joining a gym is to: 1. Visit a few (as long as they are convenient to get to) 2. Really pay attention to how the staff treats you from the receptionist to the person touring you. Do they smile, act sincere, friendly...etc 3. Don't purchase solely on price. In general the best clubs cost the most money and often the more you like the club, the more you go and the more you go...you get my point. Spending an extra $20 a month in the whole scheme of your life really amounts to nothing compared to the value of genuinely improving your health 4. If you are hesistant to join because you will fail, hire a qualified personal trainer. This I can't stress enough. Yes it costs money and yes you are going to be pushed to exercise on a regular basis, but at the end of the day the trainer will teach you how it is properly done, get you to your goal much faster and ensure you are educated enough to continue on your program without them or with little assistance from them.
