The only reason to join a gym is if you don't have enjoyable trails from the door? So I would drive.

You're going to the gym to get fitter, the walk or jog there will do you good and count towards your warm up or exercise goals. Unless the weather's awful and driving is the only way you'll actually go smile
For me, the gym is a 20min walk from home and just around the corner from work. I always walk. Its easier than town centre traffic, parking, and walking from the car. Probably quicker most of the time too.

Depends on how nice the walk is.
Through a park with plenty of wildlife - yes.
Through a dodgy housing estate at night - no.

I'd drive. If it's a proper heavy gym session I'd be knackered and would want to eat within a reasonable time afterwards.

Can you repeat the question?

20 min walk or a 10 min run… cardio and then you can focus on weights at the gym!

Drive, and park as close to the door as possible.

Walk when it's nice; drive when it's lashing it down...

Not only that, if it's a decent session you don't want to push into overtraining. Get there, follow the gym plan, get home. If you want more exercise do it on a different day or am/pm. Years ago I used to run the 1.5 miles to my gym and back and couldn't work out why it was taking me longer to recover... . young and stupid biggrin

Definitely this - keep the exercise focused in the gym.
