What exercise equipment is good for a home gym?
When you're developing your home gym, there are a few things that you can get that will make a tremendous difference for a minimal cost, and give you a wide variety of exercises. Number one is an exercise ball. There are various size balls. Some of them are 45, 55, 65, and 75 centimetres. You'll go, and when you're ready to buy them, there will be a chart that will show you, based on your height, which exercise ball is appropriate for you, and they're very inexpensive. The other thing is a medicine ball. Those are the smaller balls that are heavier, with which you can do throwing movements and twisting, jumping, crunches and all sorts of things like that. You'll want an exercise mat. Just with the mat and both of those balls, you can probably do 500 different exercises. For the cardiovascular equipment, you'll want to do whatever you like to do best. It doesn't matter if it burns 50 more calories than the one next to it in the store. If it's the one that you enjoy, it's most likely that it's the one that you will continue to do. There are also several infomercial-type products that are also very, very good for a home gym. So, do your research, try it out when you can, ask your friends, ask for feedback, and then put it all together. Have fun, and most importantly, use it and don't let it become your secondary coat rack.
