What ^^^ lisa ^^^ said. Personally, I never utilized the gym equipment because I have always been a group exercise fan. I had a gym membership for the last four years, and I finally canceled it because I wasn't utilizing it... at all. The social aspect of the gym is nice, especially if you're retired and home alone much of the time like me, but there is excellent variety with Cathe LIVE, the cost is reasonable, and you'll have time for other things since you won't be driving back and forth to the gym. Also, with LIVE you have the flexibility of working out on your schedule and not the gym's. For $10, you can sign up for a month to see if you like it before you give up your gym membership. I think it's terrific and hope Cathe continues to produce the LIVE workouts for years to come.
