I joined a gym a couple of months ago, an inexpensive place with no contract needed. (Planet Fitness) The first month was tough, sticking with it. But after I got past that hump, I actually like going to the gym. I would recommend meeting with a trainer to help determine what sort of workout will help you reach your goals. You should probably do some strength training along with cardio, for a balanced workout.
