#wegotweightsfromtarget

- No money for a gym membership? Even LA Fitness’ scarily cheap price of $30 / month?

- Cringe at the thought of spending $30 for a one hour aerobics class? (Mostly need that money to feed oneself)

- Profusely sweat to the point where others are concerned?

- Don’t leave work in time to ever make a workout class?

- Don’t want to be bothered by the shameless stares of fellow workout members of the opposite sex? Hey, men can be targets too!...... (*que 5 minute dramatic eye roll where I temporarily lose vision*) 

If you answered yes to any of those questions, the Peasant Workout may be just the thing you need in your life. For the low low price of free  (minus a few optional pieces of equipment) and some form of internet, you too can achieve some pretty high quality levels of fitness. 

Will you have fancy machines? Nope. Will there be someone telling you to keep pushing and to keep moving and keep giving you encouragement? Nah. Not unless you choose to keep the volume up on your app / laptop and listen to the person instructing you. Self-discipline, along with the acute awareness of having $23 to your name and 1.5 weeks till your next paycheck, will need to kick in. 

So.........

Question: Love the diversity and efficiency of HIIT workouts but don’t have those HIIT pesos?

Answer: FitnessBlender.com is completely free and has hundreds of options to make you sweat profusely.......and no one will stare / be concerned about your physical well-being (Bonus: these workouts require minimal space so there’s no excuse) 

Question: For whatever reason (let’s be real, you pressed snooze 17 times) you only have 15 minutes in the morning before you have to go healthily sit at a desk for 8-12 consecutive hours out of the day staring at a screen?

Answer: 12 Minute Athlete has a variety options for just the occasion. Workouts range from 4 - 16 minutes with options for equipment or just body weight. (Bonus: If you live in a cramped apartment of just need to be quiet because your roomie will come for your life if you wake him/her up before they’re ready, there’s options for those predicaments as well.)

Question: Love to get that zen on but your office keeps you hostage from making your 8pm downward dog date? 

Answer: DoYogaWith.com has endless videos to choose from that range in both time and skill level. Even if your room is the size of Harry Potter’s closet, you can still fit in one shavasana at the very least. 

Peasant wellness is achievable if you want it to be. Think about your life. Think about you choices. Think about how you have two digits in your bank account and 10 days until next paycheck.
