1. Get outside & play!A no brainer with the hot summer months! :) Just like when we were kids on summer break from school, just itching to get outside & play. We just weren't as worried as burning calories back then! Recreational sports like softball, volleyball & basketball are great exercise. Grab a group of friends & join your local rec league! (this is also a great way to meet new people & insure yourself a fun summer!)
2. Buy used equipment:
With summer comes yard sales. Hit up your local sales, the goodwill, or check out Craigslist.org. I got my eliptical on Craigslist (the seller was asking $200, but knocked off $50 since I came & picked it up & am a poor college student - haha) same story with my stepper ($35!) --> this bike I salvaged just the other day from a lday that didn't want it anymore!3. Check it out:
Borrow fitness DVDs from friends or the library. That way you can keep changing up your weekly workout & keep those muscles guessing!
4. Be a stair master:
Scope out local highschool or college stadiums & ask about public access hours. Step to it!
5. Team up:
If personal training is something you really want to try, but can't front the cost, pair up with a friend and split the cost.
6. Move with the tube:FitTV offers around the clock workout and health programming. Don't have cable or satellite? Check out fittv.discovery.com to watch fitness vid's online!
7. Cut Coupons:
Gyms offer free passes or intro personal training passes. If you find a location you love, haggle for a good membership rate.
8. Put it on your 'Pod:
Many fitness websites have free podcasts that offer exercises, workout tips, and recipes.
