Jogging
By far one of the most popular means of exercising, jogging will cost you no money at all. You don’t need expensive equipment, you don’t need to pay a monthly fee – you just need a pair of running shoes, some comfortable clothes, and a park or a nice area where you can run without being disturbed. For some extra “spice”, create a playlist with the songs you really like and energize you and have fun!
Body weight-based exercises
If you want to work out that behind, or if you simply want to improve your fitness level, you can do a lot of exercises at home – and you will not need any kind of special equipment (some dumbbells can help, but they are not absolutely mandatory, especially if you are just starting out with your workout.
Start with an easy warm-up and then proceed with jumping jacks, lunges, push-ups, squats, crunches and other similar exercises. Make sure you alternate between the cardio exercises and the one that are more “static”, to maximize the effectiveness of your work-out. Also, make sure you are completely safe and that you are practicing all exercising in the correct way! Not only will this make your muscles work properly, but it will also be the safest way to ensure you are not hurting yourself.
Dancing
You don’t need expensive dance lessons to dance. In fact, you can actually dance at home, or wherever else you feel comfortable. With YouTube and Spotify at your disposal, you can easily find free dance lessons online, as well as a myriad of amazing songs to dance to.
Dance your way through the day! Put on some music, move those hips, and feel great about yourself!
