Throwback Fitness: No Weights, No Gym

There are a myriad of fancy gyms where members spend tons of money to work out. There are also spa fitness centers that combine workout equipment with spa services. There are also a tremendous amount of expensive machines you can buy for your own home workouts.

Fitness, getting in shape and losing weight does not necessarily require you to spend a lot of money. The health benefits of getting fit, however, far outweigh any monetary investment.

Pushups

Regular or girl pushups do not require one piece of equipment. All that’s required is the floor and you. Hit the deck and do three sets of 10-15 pushups. It’s a great to build muscle and strength in your upper body.

Side Planks

Three sets of side planks also build muscle and strengthen your upper body. As an added bonus, you workout your side muscles to give you a toned and sculpted look all the way around.

Yoga

While you can take a class at a yoga studio that may cost you money, there are also yoga shows on TV and downloadable yoga workouts online. Yoga focuses on working your core muscles and can create a full body workout that also relaxes your mind and spirit. Your torso and hips will get a great workout, so yoga is a great routine for losing weight and toning muscles.

Can you get the body you want working out at the gym? Yes.

Do you have to spend the money on a gym membership or buy expensive equipment to get the body you want? No. There are plenty of ways you can meet your fitness goal without spending a dime.
