It sounds harsh, and may not be money saving advice suitable for every gym goer, but if your finances are tight, then you may want to consider this. And quitting going to the gym does not mean your loosing out on important fitness, you just need to learn that there are many ways to accomplish the same thing as I will now explain why this tip will save you a lot of money!

This article is not relevant for a professional athlete/bodybuilder, but I think casual gym members should think about this. How much do you spend per month on your gym membership? Maybe 50$ maybe 150$ perhaps more! That's a hefty bill every year. to be honest I haven't a clue about the cost of gym membership because I've never been a member, but that doesn't mean I'm more unfit than some one who is a regular gym member.

You use a treadmill in the gym? Well try jogging around your neighborhood, local park, or if your lucky enough to live by the coast, nothing beats a jog on the beach. You go to the gym to lift weights? Buy your own weights, they are not that expensive, recently I bought a set(2*1kg , 2*2.5kg, 2*5kg) for 30$. You go to work on abs? Legs? Chest? Back? Well you don't need those machines to work out your body. You can exercise your body completely with just your body , weights , and some furniture like a sofa.

So you'll now need an alternative to the gym. The internet is full of excellent information on how to keep fit with little or now equipment. Daily exercise plans are available as are comprehensive exercise instruction sets for all parts of the body. One website I highly recommend in this area is Making The Best. His site is simple, but effective, and his youtube videos are excellent. He will answer any questions you have promptly.

One(of many) thing my father said: "The only things gyms keep fit is their equipment" , which is very true, but after reading this article, you don't need their equipment anymore.

Thanks for reading!

Backlink promotion *Get on the list!*

I recently saw the excellent idea of a backlink promotion method on MoneyBush.

But unfortunately it seems people are wasting the time, as the original list is not being updated. So I am taking it on myself to replicate this (copying ? perhaps, but afterall, the original doesn't seem updated, and note that it is referred to a "backlink contest" , well here I am, another contender!)

So how do we get this train rolling? Simple.

Step1)

Copy the list (from STARTCOPY to ENDCOPY), and post it on your blog, taking note of this post's URL.

Step2)

You leave me a comment in the form:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Link to where you have copied and pasted the backlinks list on your blog

Followed by the link you want to appear on the original list
<li><a href="http://YourSite.com">Your Site Name</a></li>
--------------------------------------------------------------


For example:
--------------------------------------------------------------
www.QuietZorg.blogspot.com/

<li><a href="http://quietzorg.blogspot.com/2010/02/backlink-generater.html">QuietZorg Blog</a></li>
---------------------------------------------------------------

I will update this original list at least every week(on average!). Judging by the original backlink contest, this will give you 100's of quality backlinks! One simple step, and the faster you join , the better for everyone!

So here it is, OUR backlink train, for all bloggers and website developers!

!!STARTCOPY!!

Too add your site to the list , visit QuietZorg

Remember, You need to copy the html code, not just text. If you are having problems in doing this, simply click "View" on your browser, and click "Page Source" .Then find "STARTCOPY" (alternatively press crtl+f and type STARTCOPY) , and copy from STARTCOPY to ENDCOPY. Then simply paste this in you blog post or website.

Any problems? leave a comment.

With a little bit of many's work, this has such potential for all!
We can beat the original :-)
