TEN REASONS TO JOIN BETTER GYM

 

We all know that going to the gym is good for your health and we are all aware that we should be a bit more active. Joining a gym makes doing these things a lot easier but if you needed some more motivation, here are 10 great reasons to join Better Gym:

 

  1. It’s good for your health

We’re stating the obvious with this one but did you know that being active daily reduces the risk of heart disease, strokes and type 2 diabetes? 

  1. It’s good for your mind

When you exercise, endorphine levels increase releasing all those "feel good" chemicals into your body. Calming anxiety, instantly boosting your mood and long term improving confidence levels too.

  1. It’s a great stress buster

Had a busy day? There is nothing more rewarding then running faster or lifting heavier than you have before. Plus, the fitter you get, the better your body is at regulating cortisol levels (the hormone linked to stress).

  1. Access to equipment

Being a member of Better Gym means you have access to tons of equipment, allowing you to keep your routine fresh and exciting.

  1. On hand to help

If you’re a workout newbie, a gym membership can give you the tools and knowledge to start out. Learn the ropes by booking on the induction programme, attending classes or even get a Personal Trainer

  1. It keeps you motivated

Going to the gym and being surrounded by motivated people can encourage you to stay on track. Plus, having somewhere to go sounds more appealing than working out in the park or in your living room.

  1. You get an all-weather workout

Ever binned off a run because it was raining? Ditched the outdoor bootcamp because it was dark? Better Gym Teddington offers a great place to work out whatever the weather and time of year, so no excuses!

  1. Meet like-minded people

Joining a gym can be quite social, especially here at Teddington - because we have the friendliest team and as soon as you join you begin to get to know people and before you know it you’re lifelong friends.

  1. It will improve your sleep

Studies show that people who exercise 5 to 6 times benefit from improved sleep quality and movement aids thats restfuls nights beaty sleep.

  1. You can have somewhere to relax

Generally, people join a gym to workout but they are actually a great place to unwind. A gentle workout, a mind and body focues class or simply heading to the sauna for some ‘me time’ will have you zen before you know it.
