For delivery, I would need to have it delivered and brought into my house. It would be best if I could go to see the item before I buy it since it is reasonably expensive (I live in the Toronto, Ontario area).
You could try Sears. I know they carry a few different models of the Weider home gym, plus they would have them in-store for you to see in person. They also have delivery.

A friend of mine has a large home gym in the basement of her house and was thinking about starting an at-home-business by creating a website and selling memberships to people to use her facilities. Is this legal? We live in Toronto Ontario but neither of us can find information on this. She was also thinking about adding a couple of tanning beds and a sauna. What do you think? Is this a good idea?
I don't know if regulations in Canada are similar to rules in some US states but in PA a gym owner must post a bond in the amount of $100,000 that protects those who join the gym in the event you close. Also, you will need business insurance of some kind.
Honestly, I hate bursting bubbles but I think finding a commercial location for the gym is the way to go if you really want to make this a money-making venture. Good luck,
Well I think I should start from the beginning as it'll help me get through this without losing anyone who is interested in helping me.
You see when I was 10 my parents got divorced and my mom moved around until we decided to live in Toronto Ontario (In Canada if you are unaware of where that is). Once there I became kind of a recluse and I disliked going out or even interacting with others. When School begun that year I didn't talk to anyone and whenever anyone would talk to me I would keep quiet and just ignore them. I got pretty good grades in schools mostly B's some A's here and there through out my junior High school career.
The summer between High school and Junior High school I started to feel really lonely but I knew that if I talked to my mother about it she would just give me the whole motherly lecture and not truly grasp what I was getting at, she's very sweet and very kind but she's not exactly a very good communicator and stumbles through emotional situations rather badly, worse even then I do. Eventually I went outside (First time since summer began) it was about two weeks after school had been let out and I met some kids around my age, they were nice and kinda rowdy but I just kept quiet and played it cool. One of them was this girl who was really pretty and she had a twin, the only difference was that the girl was named Emily and her sister was named Marissa and Marissa had a tiny scar just above her right eye that was hard to notice unless you were familiar with the two of them. Eventually I grew to understand the kids and I was able to make jokes that weren't even remotely funny to me but were hilarious to them I became the funny but serious guy in the group and I got my own nickname which I was pretty happy over. There were about 7 of us and five of us were planning on going to the same high school the other two were still in Junior High.
When high school begun I realized that I had five of my eight courses with Emily and we became really close, of course I still kept my real emotions really deep down but I portrayed some rather easily understood ones so she could feel closer to me. But I was living two lives, on one half I was constantly calculating and trying to grasp how to best work an angle so that I could keep my friends and on the other I was really me and I really hated what I was doing, never really showing my true self to them.
When Christmas Vacation came around Emily and Marissa had a big Christmas party and everyone of our friends plus some more I didn't really know but recognized around school came. Emily and I kinda stuck together during the Party but she said she was thirsty so I went to get her a drink. When I came back with the drinks Emily started to cuddle with me and I was of course returning the gesture. Suddenly Emily starts dragging me to the dance floor and were dancing pretty closely and people are giving us our own little space to move with.
After I left the party I was feeling pretty cool but then I remembered that I hadn't really gotten that close to Emily it was the guy I was pretending to be and started feeling like a such a bastard for treating Emily like a simulation or some kind of test subject to play my part of a cool and funny guy on. When Winter classes begun we had exams and so Emily, Marissa, and one of our other friends were all studying together since none of us had any extra curricular activities like the rest of our friends (I'm pretty athletic but I find it hard to keep playing the part of the guy I was pretending to be while exercising and so I decided it was better to just keep the exercise to my home gym and PE class). After we had all finnished studying I asked Emily out on a date and she said yes.
When the date came around everything was going smoothly just your average straight out of the movies dinner and a movie stuff. My uncle owned a restaurant so I didn't really have to pay but I made it look like I did, I'm sure she realized but she still pretended to be impressed which was really cool of her.
After about three months Emily and I were getting pretty cosy with each other and we had extended periods of Public Displays of Affection. But I was starting to feel kind of restless I didn't want to pretend to be who i was portraying all the time but was scared of acting like the real me, who had become nothing but a self hating, disgusted, and extremely frustrated young man, but mostly only in private where I took out all my aggression and anger out on my exercising equipment which I almost constantly used whenever I was not studying or hanging out with Emily.
Now it's summer and I feel as if I should tell Emily but I just can't so about three hours ago I explained most of my feelings and what I had done and was still planning on continuing to do to Marissa since she's much more emotional and understanding than everyone I know and she explained that I should tell Emily when I think it's right but I just can't
I've taken all of your advice and I've told Emily (Over MSN) about what had been going on and how I felt about it and such. Her first words were "It was about time you stopped being such a douche and explained why you always seem angry and happy at the same time". I was to be honest a bit depressed at that as I thought it was her way of saying it was over. But she informed me otherwise and that she was happy I had told her. You people were right and I couldn't be happier that I took your advice I feel sooo much better. Thank you all. Thank you from the deepest depths of my soul I owe you all my thanks.
Wow. I saw that long, long story and at first I thought I would just skip answering the question. But I couldn't help but read it all the way through.
I would have to agree with Marissa. Tell her when it starts to come up, in the smallest way. You don't want to randomly burden her with your story, about how you feel (unless you feel like you have to tell somebody soon or else you'll explode) Also, it might seem a bit random. You could start out by saying something like "Who are you, Emily?" She might find it cute that after you know her so well, you're asking her who she is. And then she might reverse the question and that would be your opportunity to explain.
Good luck. It sounds like you and Emily are close enough right now for you to tell her.

this is the longest time i stopped wanking my cock! its been a month only and during this month of not masturbating i feel great, happy, my metabolism is like unending, my muscles are becoming bigger everyday, i am losing weight like crazy, my confidence has gone way up consederably! when i workout at the gym i can run for like 1 hour 30 mins at speed 6.5 miles non-stop (before it was like 20 mins then i am on my face), i can left more pounds, before i was at 70 now i am at 110. now i sleep 4-6 hours instead of 8-10 and when i wake up its like i am in wonderland and not in "pffffffffffffff I HATE WORK!". when someone talks with me i feel like talking and laughing and jumping around like crazy and my concentration also increased A LOT!
however, I AM ALSO TOO HORNY! i dont know any interesting girls right now (except for one and she is 17.... i am 22 and away from home living in Toronto) and i dont wanna call a hooker! and of course i dont wanna lose this mood and masturbate again! i know myself, once i do it 1 time ill do it like 10 times again at the same time and become depressed and lazy again!
and when i see a beautiful girl its like "RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" in my cheat and i feel like my saliva is gonna drip on me!
if u stopped masturbation, do u feel the same as me???
did you NOT masturbate for over a year???
any ideas how to deal with this power of lust i have???
thanks
plz no joke answers, and no religion "follow jesus allah read the bible and fear god the mercyful" that kind of talk, i am too serious about this!
wow, im reallly glad to hear u stopped for that long. i know how hard it is to stop masturbating, im trying to now.

“And when he first came to us last year, he wasn’t doing those things. So those are areas you have to be successful in to get good scoring chances and he’s really concentrated on working hard in those areas [this season]. Getting pucks out of his own end and then you can have the fun of the game down at the other end in the offensive zone. Pay the price, go to the front of the net, win some battles in the corners on cycles and he’s done all of that. So we’re excited for him, he’s off to a good start.” “Not so much in the gym, sort of kept that the same, but skated more and worked on little skill things that I think are sort of neglected in the summer when you’re just playing for the [World] Cup hockey. So it was good for me with [skating coach] Paul Vincent, who knows my game and helped me out a lot on the ice and I feel really comfortable with the puck.” “Coming out of college I think we played 33 games,” he said,...
