It is the cheapest with one exception: walking. Walking is also the best aligning of all exercises, for it incorporates all within you to work in tandem: the body itself, the emotional signature, the causal makeup (imagery past and present, aspirations), the mental matrices, the subconscious and primordial you, and finally the Higher Self in that the walking allows the most high aspect of you to more easily carry through to all the lower ones I just named.
The body is the grounder to the Higher Self, and walking allows you in a most tangible way to put all the confusions on hold that wrests within you.
Jogging is an octave above the walking, whose frequency and resonance shift everything upward.
Walking is just one way to acclimate to jogging, for both are highly aerobic and rhythmical in both their inputs and outputs, and the health of the body immediately responds by burning fat, removing toxins, toning and sharpening reflexes tremendously, and toning the musculature completely naturally. Herein, nature and the body itself will do all the work for you and in a balanced and proportionate way. The body becomes the fitness expert !
See?
I would suggest that you indeed warm up before the jogging: do this naturally, however, by walking first, building the speed as you go until your walk becomes a jog... The warm up should always correspond with the activity that you are performing, which in this case is Jogging...
Stretching muscles and the like is okay for some people, but this can tend to shock because it is not quite in an overall rhythm with all the inner bodies as I so named; it does not necessarily have the same import of meaning to the native wisdom of the body. For example here: lifting weights would be out of synchrony with an activity that requires a different metabolic input and output, a different rhythm altogether, see?
Bear in mind, jogging like walking, is first and foremost spiritual.
Ego has to get out of the way of it. For example, if you are arrhythmically emotional about something, say, angered tremendously by something, you are a lot more likely to suffer an injury while walking or jogging. This is because you will have fallen out of rhythm and resonance and have shut off the Higher Self from carrying you safely through and letting you know properly when to pick up or slow down... Let the jogging dissipate the anger or passion naturally. It will do this for you...
You do want to start off slowly and then build up like a horn or drum solo... All should be a crescendo, for jogging speaks of beauty not power; it is to alleviate imbalances throughout.
You should employ this same crescendo as to whether to extend your jogs or not. This is something that you will know intuitively. Again, always listen to the voice within as to whether you should extend it or remain consistent for awhile. This is good, at least for awhile. What you do want is precision -- nothing shocking or traumatic. You can take the leaps later as the body comes to know the terrain and the atmosphere in which you are running.
For high levels of oxygen, use the forested or greeny plant areas; that is, where the air is rich in oxygen.
One highly important point -- tremendously important here: ensure that you are well watered. You must have sufficient water in your system; otherwise your body will lock up, and you'll cramp or cause some internal distress.
Second, allow yourself time for food to assimilate and settle before jogging, because to jog too soon will abruptly shut down the digestive process, which can pose tauma to the abdominal areas: and you will wind up walking around like an old lady for awhile until the body adjusts and recover for your daring to force it to do something that is in violation of yourself... See?
Don't worry, there is nothing to fear. Just pay attention to yourself, is all...
Now, your body thereto lets you know when to ratchet-up a notch or two or whether to jog more than once a day or every two days or just how whatever number of times a week.
As to using weights, know this... Nature has given you exactly all that you need to walk or jog. Let the body acclimate according to what it has to know and do naturally. You must come to know yourself first and foremost.
Again, walking and jogging -- are the cheapest. So pay no more money than what is needed to eat well first of all. All else is campy stuff...
And do not put strike and strain and vanity into it. The result of running produces -- or should -- relaxation to all systems of the body. If you have to set out to achieve some goal simply for its own sake, then you have defeated the whole purpose.
Do not let the mind rule. Let your 'entirety' agree to what is to be done and achieved, which comes, it just comes, and you will know this inwardly.
So if it is to take up competing in races or marathons, this is fine so long as you are in harmony with yourself.

I think first you should learn how to type right... And there is no such thing as a "professional jogger". The term professional is used when someone gets paid for what they do. No on gets paid for jogging.
Anyways. Jogging is a great way to stay fit. Start with 1 mile everyother day. After a week of that you can start walking everyday, or almost everyday. After a few weeks of that you can bump it up to two miles or three. Make sure that you take atleast one day off everyweek. Also make sure that you drink lots of water, you wouldn't want to get dehydrated would you?
Hope this helps. Good luck!

Start out by picking a goal for yourself (ex: either 5 minutes or half a mile). You should make the goal either a lenght of time or a distance you choose to run. The lenght of time is basically making sure that you can jog at ANY speed for the selected length. Once you achieve your goal of running 10 minutes (for example), try to run another tenth of a mile or so further in those ten minutes each day. By choosing a distance, you are going to need to time how long it takes you to run a mile, lets say. Then, tomorow, (if it took 12 minutes today) try to run your mile in 11 minutes 30 seconds.
And yes, jogging is one of the BEST ways to get fit. Just don't give up! And also, ALL ATHLETES, pro or not, run. Every athlete out there got to where they are by training, running, and working hard. That's all you need to do - train hard, be motivated, be pacient, and dont' give up! Good luck , I love running!
