You also need a big enough battery to get through slow hours.

So you can get the Zero-emissions Off-the-grid gym!

      yeah. it still amazes me how much it takes to actually burn calories and its mostly heart rate that does it. I was thinking how you won’t get anything from the free weights or aerobics classes along with swimming and heating pools, sauna, hot tub is not insignificant. I think it could be done as long as what the gym offers is limited and it uses very energy efficient things.

        Eh if you want to go real efficient you just drop the heating music and light and have only non electric machines and voilà! 0W used :D

      It can still be worth adding generators and wiring to exercise machines to offset energy consumption

      It seems like a lot of extra overhead for marginal benefit.
