As we entered the local Family Video one of the first signs we saw touted fitness videos for free! Yes - free! All kinds of videos offering various workouts. All free! Everything from Denise Austin to basic yoga.
Did you know that yoga has been around for more than 5,000 years? Today, you see lots of super stars and athletes practicing yoga, but it's a great activity for anyone! No matter what other activities you participate in, yoga can strengthen your abilities by increasing flexibility, staying power (endurance), and your ability to focus. The benefits from Yoga can be quite remarkable!
And all you need to get started is a free video! Or tag along with a friend to a local yoga class. Head out to the library for another source of free fitness videos!
YouTube has free videos covering just about every kind of exercise you might imagine. You don't need to spend a small fortune every year at the local fancy pants health club. ( Although, health clubs are great for meeting other fitness lovers and you can usually get some great advice and tips from others at the gym! )
Invest in some simple fitness gear - a good pair of running shoes, and an exercise mat. Add a few small hand weights and a jump rope. Get a good sturdy exercise ball. If you want to really burn massive calories - invest a good rowing machine or an elliptical trainer. You can burn some serious calories right at home with just a few simple pieces of home fitness equipment! Put a favorite funny video in the video player and laugh away your cares while you enjoy the road to better fitness! Why not have some fun while you're building those ab muscles and sculpting that tighter tummy?
If the weather permits - dust off your bicycle - or find an inexpensive used bike and head out for an evening journey to better fitness! You can goes as fast as you dare and really kick in the fat burners - or just cruise and enjoy the scenery! For the best results - mix in some brief bursts of speed every few minutes or so. You'll give metabolism a boost and burn even more calories for hours after your ride!
The possibilities are nearly endless. Enjoy your journey to better health and fitness while you save your money!
