If you are looking to get in shape, joining a gym is one route to take. However, the cost of a membership is something that holds people back. This doesn’t give you an excuse not to exercise. A pair of tennis shoes and pavement are all you need to get started.
Walking is a great way to start your exercise program. You don’t have to do a 5k, but that could be something you work towards. You may have to begin with a half mile and that’s ok. Gradually build the distance.
Bodyweight squats and pushups are great to incorporate. Just like with walking, you don’t have to start by doing 100 of each. If 2 is your max, start there and gradually build. Pushups from the knees do a lot too and give you the opportunity to get more reps before you advance to the more challenging position.
Planks are great for the core. Time yourself on these and increase how long you can hold it.
