    well Ive accumulated all this over a period of years so I would say it would cost abuot .....at least 8000 bucks to get it all at once. And that would be cheap.

    15-20 min depending on traffic, but I work there too. I'm also moving so that I'll be about 5-7 min away, no excuses then to skip morning cardio...

    I would never drive 45 minutes to go to the gym. My workouts usually last 45 minutes so it just seems like a waste of time to me. Oh' well, you gotta' do what you gotta' do, right?

    30 minute drive...but i usually hit it on the way home from work so it's a no minute drive since it's on my way. My martial art gym i moved within 10 minutes of because i got tired of driving 30 minutes after iw as exausted every day.

    P.S. In houston 30 minutes is nothing
