Motivation is really necessary for all those who work out at home. There is no money aspect, which is a good stimulation for some people. Some simply cannot work out at home because they cannot get themselves to be so active, but when paying for a gym, they don't want their money to go to waste. This is not the best possible reason to start exercising, but it is how it is. On the other hand, if a person starts exercising at home, there will be a lot of positive effects for the body. Also, when exercising at home, a person should not have a strict workout schedule, since workout can be done anytime. Also, there is a lot of different home fitness equipment to keep you in shape.
