Although I am a huge proponent of exercise and healthy eating, I am not a proponent of gym memberships. Statistically they are a waste of money and time as most memberships are neglected and become a financial drain. I am, however, a huge fan of outdoor fitness!
It is free! Run, skip, jump, walk, hike, climb. For FREE! Here’s another perspective:

Definitely outdoors. Every morning I enjoy 1 or 2 mile of running through the fields and riverbanks, and I believe it will make every runner happy.
And the varying terrain makes the body work more and differently. better workout
Yup
My husband & I are definitely outdoors people too! We can get a good workout and try to enjoy the scenery around us.
I think it feels happier to be outside as well, right?!
Most certainly! 🙂
Outdoors any day for me too. 🙂
Thanks for reading!
Ok so I should have read this one before the other one LOL — same comment applies. My vote is OUTDOORS! 🙂
lol
I love to be outside but for me the best yoga class in indoors with no windows and a hint of candle light. I do Zumba also which is inside but can you believe my gym membershipis only $10 a month. I joined when it opened and that price remains until I decide to quit.
Well I guess $10 changes things a bit!
Another post I am a fan of. I run in the park and use a skipping/jump rope in my garden. I also use dumbells and ankle weights in the confort of my home. Gyms are definitely a waste of money… but not mine! 🙂
good for you! plus the sun is great for vitamin d!! And clean air!
Absolutely. 😉
There are also a lot of fitness apps that are free and encourage you to be outside
I overlooked that fact. Great point!
Thank you for the link!
