There are gyms and there are gyms, if you take my meanin'. This time of year, when I leave for work in the morning it is dark and it is still dark when I return. Biking is out of the question. So is cycling. My bicycles aren't coming out in the snow, for they are asleep.
My gym, on the other hand, lets me go online and read BF while on a exercise bike (wish they'd ditch those saddles though) or treadmill. I can push weight machines for upper body, leg, or core strength. I can attend a delightful 75 minutes of yoga, or a more demanding 60 minutes of Pilades.
If it wasn't for exercise I'd get no exercise at all.
