How to Select a Gym to Match Your Goals : Location

How to Select a Gym to Match Your Goals : Location
Location

You need a gym that's convenient to get to. If it takes too long to get to, you're less likely to use it as often as you should (ideally 3 times a week). So consider one within walking distance (cuts out the problems of public transport delays or traffic jams), or if you're driving there, check ease (and cost) of parking. One near home or work would be ideal, depending on the days and times you wish to train.


Beware, just because a gym is geographically quite near you, doesn't necessarily mean it's convenient. I live in London, and one gym I joined was 2 miles down the road, but the public transport to that gym was so slow, it took me longer to reach than the next gym I joined, 3 miles away, but really well connected with a door to door train ride. So make sure you do the journey at the time you plan to use the gym, go get an accurate idea of journey times.
