Why waste the money

You can do all the same stuff at home for free.
You can make gymnasium equipment from junk & garbage
You use a shovel and dig if you wanted to. Great exercise for keeping the back limbered, stretched, strengthen, tone abs, and lose weight
Take old car tires and throw them around

No wasting gasoline to drive there(Less money spent on fuel)
No wear and tear on the car, (means lower maintenance cost)

By the way

I never set foot in gym and I'm soild like a rock. Even at my age I can pick up over 200 pounds from the floor and walk with it

@HumanEarth HM, I workout at home too but to address your question specifically I would offer up there are two types of workout personalities. Intrinsically motivated people like yourself who are going to find a way to work without being pushed to exercise. The other is extrinsically motivated people who feed off the energy and need the synergy a group or gym can offer. The gym is the extrinsically motivated crowd. On a sidenote I shovel a lot too. Mostly because there are always house projects that require me to do. The biggest was making a rock garden in the back yard. I was fun--and a great workout.
