It’s a one-time payment. You can spend it on anything fitness or health related.

Edit: I’m not looking for recommendations, I’m curious what YOU would spend it on.

    Assuming:

    • I don’t own any fitness equipment
    • I’m at the very start of my fitness journey
    • I am completely untrained

    I would buy:

    • A yoga mat
    • A good pair of shoes

    For exercise I would do calisthenics and walk/hike/run.

    To upgrade the kit I would get:

    • Workout clothes
    • A bicycle
    • A fitness tracker

    Reasoning:

    For building good overall fitness, you want a combination of strength and endurance exercise. Calisthenics and walking/hiking/running accomplish both for someone just starting out. Exercise clothes are good but arguably optional, as you can work out in regular clothes. Adding a bicycle for combined transportation and exercise later is good, and having a device to track everything is good for understanding progress and keeping motivation high.

      Throw in some hand weights with detachable plates and a couple bars. You can do a lot of strength training with a $100 set of hand weights.
