We're spending a lot of money on exercise. How much? According to a new study, Americans, particularly Millennials, spend more on working out than on college. The study, by sports and nutrition company My Protein, found that the average American spends $155 a month on health and fitness – or $112,000 in their lifetime. By comparison, tuition at a public four-year university is about $98,000.
How does that $155 break down? $33 on gym memberships, $56 on health supplements, $35 on workout clothing and accessories, $17 for healthy eating plans and $14 on trainers. The study found that 87 percent of Americans believe paying for fitness is a high priority, and some people are paying a lot more than the monthly average of $155. (Moneyish)
