Starting exercise and getting fit is on everyone’s New Year’s resolution list but the fast-paced urban lifestyle hardly gives you the time to even think about yourself, making it impossible to join a gym. So, what is the solution for the same? Firstly, you need to understand that gym is not certainly the only path to get fit. It is one of the most expensive ways to ramp up your fitness. We are in 2022, and adding the cost of a gym and personal trainer can have a serious impact on your budgeting and bank accounts.
Don’t you think that it would be great to have an option of getting fit in the comfort of your home? So here are the tips to get fit without getting a gym membership:
- Walk when possible
We tend to underrate walking a lot. You don’t need to go out to a public park to add this activity to your routine. When you are on a long call with your best friend or any relative, you can walk around at home from one room to another continuously. We Indians like chatting a lot and if a call for instance lasted 30 minutes, then imagine how many rounds of the house you can cover when you are on that call. - Take stairs instead of elevators
We all are always in a hurry to reach places and to cut the time short, we tend to choose an elevator over a staircase. Climbing stairs can be extremely beneficial in burning calories, keeping you fit, and maintaining your ideal body weight. - Get your house in order
Look no further than your mop, bucket, broom, and vacuum. Doing the household chores by yourself will keep you fit and active. - Play with your kids
Join your kids in their playtime. You can play whatever excites your kids and as per your liking, but choose any physical game and get out of the house with the equipment. Some suggestions for the games are football, cricket, hockey, badminton, or shoot hoops. This change will be beneficial for both of you. - Take your pet out for a walk
Or park the car further away from the building. Take out some time from your busy schedule and take your pet out for a walk. When you park your car while rushing to the office, park it a bit away so that you have to take a brisk walk to reach your vehicle after your office hours.
Include all these activities in your daily routine, or you can fix the time for these activities, and doing them daily will surely give you the results.
