As the weather gets warmer, opt for a run or hike with a friend. You can go at your own pace, and sweating it out with a BFF is always more fun than working out alone. 3. Go swimming at the beach or outdoor pool. Summer is the perfect time to do outdoor activities like swimming. Take a dip in a friend's pool or head to the nearest beach for a swim. You won't even feel like you're exercising.4. Sign up for free gym passes. Crunch, David Barton, Equinox, and Gold's Gym all offer three- to seven-day free passes to guests. If you don't want to commit to one gym spot, these free passes are your jackpot. You can also strategically plan which gyms to visit using the free passes, which adds up to almost a free month of exercising. 5. Try ClassPass. Can't decide whether you want to do Pilates, yoga, strength training, or cycling? ClassPass is your go-to for trying out thousands of classes for a monthly fee ($79-$99). Instead of signing up for classes or gyms you dread going to, sign upfor ClassPass for a variety of exercise options. 6. Search for fitness videos on YouTube. YouTube channels Blogilates, BeFit, and POPSUGAR Fitness let you work out in the comfort of your own home. Without spending any money, you can exercise alongside top-notch trainers Jillian Michaels, Kym Johnson, and Denise Austin on BeFit.

The virtual classes allow you to work out anywhere, anytime. 8. Attend local free fitness events.

Search Groupon and LivingSocial for gym deals. No need to splurge on an expensive gym membership. Groupon and LivingSocial offer the most comprehensive discounts for all your fitness needs, from CrossFit to Zumba to personal trainers. 10. Play sports at public courts. Take advantage of free outdoor basketball or tennis courts in the summertime. Organize a game among a group of friends, or head to the courts yourself to meet new people.11. Walk dogs for adoption shelters. It's not even exercise if you get to play with a fluffy puppy, right? Most shelters are in need of volunteers to walk their dogs, and places like the ASPCA only require eight hours per month as a time commitment.
