dont bother!!
for the price of membership at a half decent gym, and many can charge over £50 per month!!
go and have a browse on ebay, ok, not everyone has the room, but we bought a top notch treadmill (yes the company does have back up should we need spares), a cross trainer, and a rowing machine!!
all used regularly by a family of 4 at peak times if we want to !!!!
all for £750 !!!! all this stuff is still in perfect order and working well, and after 18 months of use, i recon we are saving all the way.
and we dont have to travel to and from the local gym either which although is only two miles away, would mount up to a fair amount over 18months with 3 visits per week!!
