Another tip I have is to check out your city's park and rec dept to see if they have any facilities to use. Most likely it will be a lot cheaper than a regular gym. The one I belong to uses a punch card system instead of monthly fees. 3 years ago I purchased 100 punches at $1 each. I am still using those same punches today. I prefer to workout outdoors instead of using a treadmill so this way I only pay for what I use. No monthly memberships wasted. The downside is I am not very motivated to do any strength training when I am at home. My plan is to go to my gym over my lunch hour for a 30 minute strength training workout twice a week. Hi Stacie!
