+1. Honestly, if I go to the gym it's because I want someone else to tell me what to do, and for the social aspect, not because my home setup isn't sufficient (bench, adjustable DBs, stationary bike, rowing machine, medicine balls, slides, resistance bands, TRX, bosu).

The other part of the story is that I spent over a decade as a part time fitness instructor going around to over a dozen gyms during the course of a year and the energy of being in front of a class and the friendships I made were priceless.

But as $life_happened and I stopped teaching and moved away from my friends, I really started hating everything about the gym and having to work around the gym schedule. There are times I hang out with my wife until she goes to sleep and then work out after 9PM.
