• April 16, 2024

Is that really, it is cannon! One of the "disadvantages" of having more and more options is that suddenly you do not know how to choose gym and what is the best for you!

Actually in Mexico , there is a great variety of options which can be (ordered by price, from highest to lowest):

1. Gyms / Clubs. In addition to the traditional: devices of force , cardio , free weight and functional area. They have swimming pool , variety of lessons group, court of squash and some other services like sauna , steam, solarium and / or service nutrition .
2. Gyms / Gym. Devices of force , cardio , free weight. Some have an area functional Y lessons group
3. Specific studies Places to take specific disciplines (classes) or for specially segmented markets; They may be studies of pole dance , Pilates , spinning , yoga , crossfit, among others.

As the section of specific studies is especially particular, and I want to dedicate more space, I will save it. Today I'm going to give you some tips for to choose among the group of gyms :

1. Think what kind of exercise you crave. If you are interested just do cardio in some treadmill or elliptical , or just make weights on appliances or with bars. Look for any option that gives you that!

It is not worthwhile to pay for everything else (group classes, pool, courts). Unless you get a good "deal", or that satisfies you in other ways and worthwhile.

2. If you plan to bathe and fix yourself in the gym look at the cleanliness and number of showers. If you do not plan to do it frequently, do not consider it for your decision.

3. Go to see him at schedule Y day in which would you go . It is essential that you see how many people there are and if they are people with whom you would like to share space.

For example, there clubs very relatives , in which most people are older or there are many teens. And others that predominate young or contemporary adults. The best? What goes more with you.

4. Regarding the environment, check the volume and type of music -if there is one-. Sometimes it can be very strong and / or not the type you like. And the worst that can happen is that you can not hear your ipod and ... you have to "charter" the ambient audio!

5. Choose the one closest to your home or place of work. Or one who is in the path between one and another. The closer you are to your everyday places, the more likely you are to attend.

6. If you walk around the city - like me - try to choose one that has many branches so you have the option to access any location. And distance is not a pretext for not going. It does not matter so much the number of branches, but its location.

7. If you are going to go by car or motorcycle and it is relevant for you: Check if you have parking, give courtesies or how easy it is to park on the street!

8. Generally, service and attention is offered by instructors, but the reality is that the number of attendees at peak hours is such that they can not cope! So by adopting the American style in which "the wave" is to hire a personal trainer.

Consider doing it a couple of weeks to get a routine and teach you the basic use of appliances and free weights. Council of buddies! If one of the variables for your decision is the price, consider how much the personal training service costs as the monthly payment.

Today is that the monthly payments are lower, so you can invest in a coach to guide you

9. Look for Wi-Fi or good reception from your 3G or 4G network! This is because an increasingly frequent option that is gaining strength is online advice at the moment. Or use some app or routines on YouTube. In GetQoralHealth We have many very good ones.

10. Enter the pages of Facebook Y Twitter of your options and review what people are saying about the service they provide. Tip: in networks there are usually more "vituperios" than "loas", but if there are negative comments with context, serious and that are repeated ¡Take it into account to decide!

Maybe it's worth paying a little more, if the service and attention to after-sales customers is better.
