We have a local gym that offers total free membership.
We can use any of the equipment, the pool, locker rooms, and even a hot tub and sauna.
Along with our fitness training program, the local gym also offered nutritional programs. They had dietitians from the local hospitals who would volunteer their time to members of the local gym. There was a young woman who had her own yoga studio, who would come in and offer her time to members of the local gym. So many professionals were willing to donate their time. It impressed me with the fitness training, and also impressed with the nutritional programs that they offered. I could sit down with the dietitian and ask her questions about how to eat properly for my diabetic conditions. She told me different exercises I could do, including the walking which I already did, and she showed me a few things that I could take out of my regular diet to help prevent the diabetes from getting any worse. Had I not gone to the local gym, I would not have heard about the nutritional programs and the fitness training they offer. Not only was I using the exercise equipment, but I joined the beginner’s yoga class, and I joined the nutritional program. It’s only been a couple of months, but I’m already in better shape than I have been in the last 10 years.For a totally free membership at our local gym, they offered many experiences to those who joined. Joining our local gym was one of the smartest things I’ve ever done for myself. The nutritional programs themselves would’ve been worth hundreds of dollars a year.
