How to keep it up

How do I keep it up?
Choose a fixed day and time, and start with a class or group instead of going alone. Then someone expects you, and that helps on the evenings you don't feel like it. Start with once a week; a second time will come naturally if you enjoy it.
Do I have to take out a subscription straight away?
No. Many clubs offer a trial class, and in many places you pay per session (see without a subscription). If you choose a gym, check the sign-up costs and the notice period: a yearly contract you no longer use in March is expensive. Compare gyms.
What does it cost to start doing sport?
That varies by sport: from free outdoor activities to a gym or club with membership fees. In Groningen, you can compare sports side by side in what sport costs.
I'd rather not start alone
Bring someone along, or look for a group that goes to the same class. Many classes let you start one yourself.
