Yes, you definitely don’t need a gym membership to get fit in this town.  Currently there are at least 35 parks outfitted with outdoor equipment.  And the best part is, the city has partnered with former San Antonio Spur, Antonio Daniels and his wife, to create instructional videos to help you get started with the equipment.

Not a fan of exercise equipment?  No worries, visit Fitness in the Park to find out about a free group exercise class being offered at a park near you.  You’ll be surprised at how many classes are offered daily through out the city.  Everything from boot camps, to cross fit, to zumba and yoga.  Pretty cool if you ask me.
