Lesson Activities

Hi, I'm Stacy. I am Australian and I live in Scotland. And my question is, do I like working out in gyms?

And the answer is a big fat, no, I hate it. I have had probably three or four gym memberships in the last 20 years, and I've not really used any of them. I canceled them because I was just wasting my money. It's very hard to feel motivated to go to the gym when you actually do get there. I just find it really boring. I don't like working out on equipment that other people have sweated on, and I don't like doing those kinds of exercise classes. I find 'em kind of boring. I'm a dancer, so to me, dancing is my exercise and I love it. So it's exercise in disguise. I wake up a sweat, I get my heart pumping, and I much prefer that than a gym membership. It's just, it's not for me. I think for some people they love it and it works, especially if you work somewhere very close to the gym or you get your gym workout done before work and then you've done it for the day and it's out of the way. But it's just not my cup of tea, not for me.
