5 Ways Workout Videos Are Better Than the Gym.

By Carol Nelson

So -- you can spend hundreds of dollars a month on a gym membership plus personal trainer, or you can download a range of great workout videos from a trusted source for next to nothing. Still trying to decide? Here are 5 reasons to go with the videos.

#5: Forget Those Inconvenient Opening Hours.

Instead of being locked into the gym itself, you're free to go workout anywhere you want with a video. So not only can you do it in your own house, but it's technologically feasible to take your workout videos on your iPod, head to the park, and do them there. Whatever you want.

#4: Get Instructions Without Queuing Up For A Trainer.

Sure, it's hard to replace the direct contact with a trainer that you might get at the gym. But are you prepared to pay for that contact? If you're just on a basic membership, it's not always easy to get an overworked trainer to come over and explain 16 different exercises to you.

#3: Never Hurts To Double (or triple!) Check.

No qualms about rewinding workout videos over and over until you get the exact move down pat. Some qualms, however, about asking a personal trainer -- over and over -- exactly how to do your favorite move.

#2: Few Gyms, Hundreds of Videos.

If you pay an expensive personal trainer, they can tailor a program to you. But if you're just going to the gym, you might have to figure it out on your own. Whereas if you tailor a program of workout videos to yourself, you can get the best (almost) of both worlds.

#1: We Can't Forget the Importance of Beauty.

Plenty of personal trainers are lookers, too -- don't get me wrong. But most of the men and women who appear in workout videos must be doing something right, and it certainly doesn't hurt to have a gorgeous person exercising right there in front of you for motivation. - 17274
