Planet Fitness has a $10/mo plan for you to use only one / your home gym. Planet fitness has its advantages and disadvantages. But there is no denying they are the least expensive option out there.

The YMCA is often inexpensive as well.

Another option is home calisthenics and waking/running (this is primarily what I do).I bought some good Brooks running shoes (got to a running store and have them help you pick the correct model), a jump rope, a home door frame pull up bar and subscribe to a few YouTube channels for calisthenics & yoga.

You don’t need a gym. Just get a good pair of shoes, use your body weight for resistance and discipline to move your body in some shape/form regularly.

I focused starting very slow with compound exercises: walking and squats with my body weight then moved to push ups and crunches then flex arm hand to pull ups. I also got a weighted jump rope. Fast forward 9 months into effort and I lost 75 lbs and kept it off.

Don’t forgot to get consistent, uninterrupted sleep.

Get a set of 15-20 lb dumbbells. Three times a week do 3 sets of 10 of each; presses, rows, curls, lateral raises, squats, and deadlifts. In two weeks get a set of 20-25 lb. Two weeks later get 25-35 lb. Keep going and don't sweat it if you need to hang out at a tier for a week or two extra, you likely will. On rest days walk at least a mile. That'll take you ~20 mins. Try to get that time as low as you can with sprints but don't overdo it, killing yourself will make you not enjoy it quickly. This will only take 30 minutes out of every day and can all be done at home.

Change your diet. Start eating lots of protein. No shakes needed, just replace the bad stuff with good. Yogurt instead of biscuits for breakfast. Protein bars instead of burgers for lunch. Chicken instead of steak for dinner. Water instead of coke or tea or beer. This is the hardest part but it's also where you will get the most visible gains and those visible gains are nice.

Do this for just two months and you will be feeling better and looking better in the mirror. In four months you will get compliments. In six months you will get admiration. It's not complicated at all, no need to study specific routines or count calories or anything like that. Just lift weights and go on walks and eat better. That's all it takes. After 6 months you'll likely catch the bug and start looking to min/max anyway. That's the time to join a gym.
