I like to be fit and maintain my weight. I usually attend a Gym if there is one located nearby my home. However, it is sometimes not easy to locate a good Gym nearby and attend it regularly. So a few years ago, I purchased a few pieces of Gym equipment for my home. It included the following:
Bicycle
Treadmill
Weights
I purchased this equipment in a fair organised in Delhi, as these were available at quite affordable price. I thought that we (me and my wife) can make good use of these facilities at home and should be able to keep fit without going to the Gym. We thought that the savings in gym charges would justify the price paid for this equipment.
When we purchased this equipment, we were quite enthusiastic about it.
Thereafter, our enthusiasm waned, but we kept using it only to justify our expenditure.
However, very soon, the equipment was discarded by all family members.
We then started using them as hangers for our wet clothes and put all sorts of clothes on them.
Then we shifted them to our store room as they were occupying so much space in one of the bedrooms.
After a few years, when we found that no one is interested in using them and no one is missing them in stores, we decided to dispose them of during our next posting.
I still have the weights at home but I have not used them for ages.
