The holidays are quicky approaching…and along with family, friends, and food – you also have to deal with fat. That holiday weight gain – why deal with it after the fact, when you can stay ahead of it with your regular workouts! But, one of the other downsides of the holiday season is how little time we all seem to have to actually get those workouts in. One solution – build your own home gym and workout when it’s most convenient for you!
One advantage of a home gym is when you do have time, you’re not as rush, and you can not only enjoy your workout (and make it more productive) – you don’t have to wait for space at a machine like you would at your local gym. Your home gym is never closed. You can wear what you want, make what ever noises you wish, and make it a longer workout since your commute isn’t to the local gym, it’s to another room in your house.
There are two drawbacks to a home gym. First, you loose the social aspect you get from a commercial gym. You can solve that problem by getting involved with online forums, or have a friend or neighbor come work out with you. The other drawback is – as your workouts evolve, so must your gym. It’s good to start small, and add equipment to it as you go along (and Fitness 4 Home Superstore can help you with that!).
One concern that most people have is space – do you have enough? You might be surprised at how much you can do with very little space. Yoiu can start small with suspension trainers like the TRX Home Suspension Training Kit – by either using a door, or mounting a suspension hook to the wall or ceiling, you can start your workouts in only a few square feet! Originally designed for navy seals, the TRX is the apparatus of choice for MMA fighters and pro athletes. This all-in-one kit comes with the suspension trainer plus anchor points for indoor and outdoor workouts. And, you’ll get a full-body workout using your own body weight to build lean muscle and increase flexibility and endurance.
