Hey Guys,
I am interested in playing table tennis on any day of the week, not too late and not too early, just for fitness. It can be difficult to consistently walk for fitness here, due to crazy weather and lack of sidewalks in many residential areas.
I am reading many articles on health fitness and sports. Do you guys have any better option for exercise I just can't bear gym stuff:( Many people can’t afford to pay for the luxury of a gym membership

It's great to see that you're interested in taking up sport, this is a positive way to regulate your wellbeing. Have you enquired within your local community about table tennis? Perhaps this will be accessible via a Google or Facebook search.
Regarding affordability, this is such a pressing issue. Gym memberships can be out of budget for many people. Fortunately, there are exercise apps which offer free workouts, these can also be found on Youtube. It may also be worth looking into local group classes which might be less pocket-rinsing.
Take care.
What got me into fitness was swimming - I would suggest getting a bicycle, get a membership of a swimming pool and ride your bike 3-4 times a week. Both cycling and swimming are great exercises for fitness, and you don't need to get into gym for these.
