Finding a gym can be a really confusing task if you are a newbie. So here are few factors you should consider while looking for a new fitness home.

 

LOCATION

The most important factor while looking out for a gym is its location! You cannot be consistent if your gym is even 30 minutes away from your place! Your commute should be easy and less time-consuming. Choose a place which is near to your home or workplace. The more convenient you make it; the more regular you are likely to go!

If you are a beginner, you would need personal assistance and in-depth knowledge about how to use the machines and the correct posture of exercises. Services like locker rooms, spa, showers, and sauna are the essential add-on’s if you want to.

 Feasibility

Gym fee structure varies everywhere! Before paying your membership fees, verify any additional fees like annual maintenance and cancellation fees if you change your mind. Make sure you are not paying anything extra, as it can leave a bad taste in your mouth and a big hole in your pocket.

TIMINGS

Before registering yourself make sure the gym is open till late at night and earliest in the morning as possible so you have a full window of time slot to choose in case if you are not able to go in your own timings.

CLEANLINESS

It is not a big issue at first but when you start getting into the atmosphere and working out, you will find yourself uncomfortable working out with dirty and sweaty machines. Make sure you yourself clean the benches and machines after using it. Check upon the hygienic sanitary conditions, fresh towels, clean water and glasses and an overall clean place.
