Get fit on a budget
There`s no need for a gym membership
Staying fit or even loosing weight is a challenge its
self. With so many things do like
working, going to school and meeting other obligations in your personal life
it’s easy to find a million reason not to workout. I am sharing a few wallet friendly ideas that
will allow you to stay in shape while saving money.
1. Buy a couple
workout DVD`s or watch videos on YouTube-
If you think about it buying a couple DVD`s will last you a lifetime and
you can use them over and over.
Having a set of workout DVD`s give you access to a 24/7 free
gym in the comfort of your home. You may
also need a mat and couple weights that will make your workouts more
challenging. YouTube videos are free and
there are several youtubers who have great workout routines that will
definitely save you money. My personal
favorites are the Jillian Michaels DVD`s, Mari Winsor cardio Pilates, and the
One Day Fat blast by the Tone It Up Girls on YouTube.
2. Download apps on
you smartphone – Smartphones can do almost anything. There are several apps that will help you
stay healthy. Nike Training Club (NTC) is an amazing app that gives you the
option of choosing several workouts that will either tone your body in 30-45
minutes or choose a focus workout that last about 15 minutes. Additionally you
have the choice to use your music playlist during the workout. Just incase you
are not familiar with certain exercises; NTC also shows a quick demonstration.
I use this workout on the days when I want to get a quick workout in before
starting my day.
3. Start training for
a marathon or RUN- Running/jogging around your neighborhood is a quick way
to stay active and ITS FREE. If you want to keep track of your progress I would
suggest downloading the NIKE + running app that track your distance and
calories burn. Running for a cause is a great way to stay in shape. By training
for a 5K Marathon or Half marathon gives you a reason or a challenge for
yourself not only to stay active but also making a difference.
