Have you ever thought of having a dedicated space for fitness? The goal of having fitness at your fingertips may be easier than you think, and it may make exercising that much more top-of-mind and accessible.

First and foremost, you want to make sure you have a real wish to get fit. If your exercise bike or the treadmill has turned into a clothes rack, you should pause and question why that is. Maybe you need another route to physical health, like a drop-in sports league or a social commitment to exercise with friends.
