Well, I guess it depends on the situation: sometimes it's a good thing to try something new, but sometimes it's best to not cause ripples - especially if desired results are achieved. I don't know though....change carries its own set of risk factors. I say be cautious, but temper your decisions, best that you can.

Take 4 Tylenol chased down by 4 shots of vodka followed by 4 Advil chased down by 4 shots of vodka. When/if you come out of the coma, your pain should be gone... not sure why but I feel a need to add a disclaimer that I am not a doctor; this is a very stupid idea; and you definitely shouldn't do it.. I am joking. This is a joke. Do not take this seriously. Toss the pills, pour out the vodka ( maybe not all of it ) and go for a walk or eat a handful of kale.

I would suggest it is better at home as:
It saves money.
You don't have to get dressed to go out in bad weather.
You don't have to wait for someone else to finish using the apparatus you want to use (as you own it with the money you saved buying a gym membership).
You don't feel as though you need special clothes to exercise.
You don't have to put up with those wonderful work-out odors from others.
Taking a vacation does not mean you lose money by not going to the gym.
