Bucks County Exercise Videos - Benefits vs. Consequences
The benefits versus consequences of exercise videos is an interesting topic. Exercise videos have been around for a while. For some, exercise videos are convenient, a lower cost alternative to getting fit, and a way for the shy ones to start a lifestyle change. But others feel that doing it alone at home with no one to keep the momentum going is easier said than done.
Well known personalities have helped popularize exercise videos over the years. There's Jane Fonda, Suzanne Somers and the gregarious Richard Simmons.
Today, videos on yoga, pilates, kickboxing and belly dancing abound. The great variety is key to their longevity.
First on the pro list is convenience. Exercise videos don't require much trouble and effort on our part. We don't even need to leave our homes and get hassled driving or dealing with the weather, traffic, parking, and gym sales staff. Just clear a space, press play and workout anytime.
What about the cost of the workouts? At an average of U$20 per video, doing the video 3x a week for 2 months gets you back its retail cost. But gym memberships entail a bigger lump sum output with hidden costs like gas, parking and drive time.
For those who prefer privacy, exercise videos are a definite pro. Starting a program can be awkward and if we're not used to certain movements or holding set counts, we easily get self-conscious and lose motivation. Add camouflage clothing versus sleek gym wear and we crawl to our home videos in great relief!
Exercise videos have the benefit of being very visual with simple instructions. Therefore, it is easy to imitate the movements demonstrated. There is little to no confusion of how they should be done. This is not the case with e-books. Words can easily confuse especially when typos occur.
And so, the pros and cons of exercise videos have been laid out. We love their no-trouble, low maintenance quality, low cost and privacy options, but we do have to consider the lack of social interaction aspect of it. We need to evaluate our preferences in order to make the perfect choice for our lifestyle. - 17268
