1. Use free videos or apps for exercising.

This is one of the most obvious, but working tips. Why do you need to spend a lot on gym memberships, if most probably you will not be able to visit it regularly? Now it even more relevant, when most gyms close from time to time due to the quarantine. Just surf the net and you will find a plethora of free videos or apps where there are ready-to-use programs. They might differentiate by lifestyle, athletic abilities or goal you want to achieve. You may also subscribe for a free trial version and test some paid products. Do not forget to unsubscribe before you are charged. Anyway, this way or another you should try to turn such exercises into routine anyway in order for them to be helpful.

2. Get some home equipment.

This tip is not about getting some fancy training equipment or like those ones in gyms. They are definitely useful, but they can cost a lot and will take up your space. Just start from buying a mat, like for yoga, for instance, some weights, and exercise bands. These things would be enough for the beginning to do exercises following online videos. Try to be rational and buy new equipment only when there is a need for that.

3. Go outside.

If the weather is nice and inviting, why not to go outside and exercise. It is that low-cost, if not free at all, possibility that everyone can use. Moreover, in your neighborhood, you can find some outdoor gym full of useful equipment. Go jogging or just for a walk in the morning and visit one of such outdoor gyms to do some exercises. Do all these while breathing fresh air and catching morning sunrays. It is especially worth considering in terms of COVID when we all spend more time inside of our homes. We need more fresh air and spend some time outside for our physical and mental health.

4. Plan your meal and shopping.

One might think that a healthy diet is only for reach people. However, this is just a misbelief. First, you need to plan your meal and shopping. By knowing in advance what you need you will not buy unnecessary or unhealthy products. Make a list of all the things you already have and need, desirably for a week. By the way, this is also a good piece of advice if you generally want to control your finances. Stick to the list and you will not waste money. Here is an additional tip: eat something before shopping. That will eliminate your chances to buy extra or unhealthy food.

5. Cook at home adding more vegetables and fruits.

Surely, after a hard busy workday, the last thing you want to do is cooking or cleaning. However, you might not find out some healthy dish to go and end up buying a fast-food burger. To avoid it, try to cook at home and you will control the number of calories and overall food quality. Add more vegetables and fruits as well. Meat is so expensive, not eco-friendly, and not so good for your body. Try to cut down its consumption and eat more vegetables.

6. Drink liquids.

Preferably, drink more water. It is fat- and sugar-free and extremely healthy for your body and skin.

7. Find a partner.

Ask some of your friends to help with your goal. Maybe they are also struggling with staying fit and need a partner for support. That adds some fun to the process. Now you are not alone on your way and have someone who could monitor your achievements. A big plus here is that it is also free of charge. Just be a good friend help them with their health routine.

As you could see, to be fit and healthy is real and you can definitely afford it. You cannot make any more excuses. Your willpower is strong enough to take responsibility for the changes you want to see in your life. Just take your little baby steps and within some time you will reach your goals.
