You’ll be doing at least a one-hour workout in the beginning, and eventually a two-hour workout, so it’s important that you
choose a place where you feel one hundred percent comfortable and where you will be inspired to do hard work.

One consideration in evaluating a gym is who works out there. If you are a bodybuilder it helps if a lot of bodybuilders are training for competition.
That’s the kind of atmosphere you want. You can relate to these people and let them guide you in attaining the proper workout
spirit. I personally choose the places with heavy wheels and cables and machines, heavy-duty stuff that looks like torture equipment.
That kind of gym gives me the incentive to do a serious workout. I’ve found that, generally speaking, home gyms can have a negative effect on concentrated training.

Your kitchen and living room are too close. You find yourself thinking, “Should I do another set or should I …?”
There are too many distractions. But if you make the commitment of traveling to the gym for half an hour, you will most likely decide that you’re
going to put in some work so you won’t have gone there for nothing. The gymnasium you choose should have good ventilation.
Next to your mental attitude, plentiful oxygen is actually the most important thing while you’re training. Without an adequate
oxygen supply you will tire easily and be unable to handle a vigorous one- or two-hour workout. The gym should be cool—it it’s too hot you
will grow languid and feel your strength has been sapped. Preferably you should get fresh air, not air-conditioned air.
