you don't need a gym to be in shape or sport. You can do it at home but you need to stick to whatever you do and it's not for me. Too frequently I feel like a wreck and sport if it's cold is not my thing. I went to the gym for many years and I can tell you it's no fun to be surrounded by mainly men watching themselves in the mirror and looking like like monkeys because the don't train all muscles. I like dancing more.
