Hi /fit/. 20 year old 5'8'' thin lean anon here. I'm currently seriously considering joining a gym and working out daily but I'm wondering whether it's worth the money and I have questioned what I'm actually going to get out of it. I find the whole motive of "getting ripped" and "getting big" all shallow and superficial but I have found there is something about the whole mental buzz of working out that is making seriously considering it. I'm a musician: I play cello, double bass, violin, guitar and piano and I feel I'm getting a great working playing my instruments - especially violin and double bass which are pretty physically demanding to play. I also do a lot of walking - usually I walk at least 8km per week and now that I have decided to go clubbing once a week, I'm gonna be doing a hell a lot of walking since public transport is shit in my city. What do you think?
Tbh i bet half of fit never imagined they would be lifting weights. Personally i loled at the kids lifting for girls.
The whole reason i workout is an accident.
Its super fun just do it.

Using your time to go the gym has given me literally the best return on investment ever
Just feeling how powerful my body has become gives me enough motivation to keep going
It'll be the same for you, every time you go the gym you're stronger than the day before

Try calisthenics, high intensity cardio, and the basic compound lifts. See which one you enjoy and stick to it, because it'll prolong your life to regularly do some for of high intensity exercise.
And 8km walking should be more like a daily goal than a weekly one. In a week that's like 20 minutes a day.
