If you're tired of the amount of time you spend driving to the gym, it might be time to consider a Home Gym System.
The annual cost of membership and vehicle maintenance combined could easily purchase a home workout platform.
Sure, there are many manufacturers to choose from.
And that may make the choice more difficult.
It doesn't have to be.
Some criteria for buying your own home gym:

• Figure out your budget for purchase.
  
• Available space.
  Where are you going to put it?
• Features available on the machine.
  It's important that you choose a gym that has everything you want on it from the get go.
  It doesn't make sense to purchase an extra machine later.
  
• Durability and quality.
  Make sure what you want to buy will hold up over time.
  Home gyms are difficult to repair.
  

Now that we have the basics out of the way, let's look at manufacturers and what they offer.
Bowflex seems to have the highest visibility out of all of the gym manufacturers.
They put a lot of money into their advertising, no doubt.
A reasonable question would be "are their systems any good?" The answer is yes.
Range of exercises available does increase with the amount of money you spend, but even the most basic setup will get the job done and done well.
Weider is a name that has become legendary in the health and fitness world.
The home gym systems that the company produces are geared towards the lower end of the price range.
Price points may start at $100, but there is quality in every gym setup that is produced.
If a Bowflex setup is out of the question, look into Weider instead.
In most cases you'll have to purchase your own weights, but it's a relatively small expense to bear.
It's very easy to get lax with yourself when you have a gym at home.
"Oh, I'll do it later" is a commonly heard refrain.
Prevent yourself from getting to that point.
Channel the discipline that you created by making yourself drive to the gym on a regular basis and use it to get that workout done at home.
