Getting more physically fit is a big goal for a lot of us.
Unfortunately, though, not everyone can afford to buy an expensive gym
membership, sign up for costly dance lessons, or buy a fancy piece of exercise
equipment.
If you’re in the “can’t afford” category, don’t worry, and
don’t make excuses. There are still many ways that you can get in great shape,
all without breaking the bank.
Get Outside and Use
Your Body
To start with, know that it’s a complete myth that you need
anything special to get in your exercise. In fact, some of the best exercise
involves nothing but your body.
If you want to run, walk, or jog, you don’t need anything
except yourself and access to the outdoors. Pretty easy, right? So, with that
in mind, lace up your sneakers, no matter how old they are, and get outside!
Buy a Workout DVD or
Two
Another super easy and super affordable way to workout is to
buy a workout DVD or two. You can generally find these for under $20 at your local
department store. Or, if you really want to save some money, head to your local
thrift store for used DVDs, which are even cheaper and still work just as
well.
And, if you don’t want to spend a dime, don’t worry. YouTube
has workout videos and instructions on pretty much every kind of workout you
can imagine.
If none of these free or cheap ways of getting into shape
appeal to you, that’s okay. There are some people out there who just really
prefer to hit up a gym or take a class.
If that’s you, the key is to get your finances in better
shape so that you can afford to do the things you love. By working with a
financial advisor, applying deductions where possible, and getting your taxes
in tip-top shape, chances are that you can afford to exercise in any way you
desire.
