This depends on your goals. Most forms of exercise can be done with little or no equipment. You do not need to go to a gym to achieve the health benefits of physical activity; however, many find organized fitness classes as a good way of becoming physically active. We understand that some people are not comfortable in a gym or do not wish to pay membership fees. All of our recommendations are based on activities that you can do with minimal equipment. Feel free to consult a qualified exercise professional for advice on how to become physically active without having to spend a lot of money (e.g., https://www.healthlinkbc.ca/physical-activity).
