Home Gym Set-up
Nothing really beats the convenience of having a home gym. In all honesty, it’s advantageous to have
one even if you get a membership. A time will come where you are unable to make it to the gym and
you’ll regret not having a place to train.
This will especially hold true in the winter if you live in a cold weather climate. No amount of snow, sleet
or freezing rain can ever be used as an excuse to deprive you of your workout.
Really, the only disadvantage with a home gym is the startup costs. But when you compare it to a year’s
worth of membership fees at a gym and all the incidentals that accrue, it usually balances out. And, this
is a one-time investment that can last many years down the round.
You can get as fancy or basic as you want, but at the very least, invest in full length mirrors on at least
one wall. Yes it’s true, you’ll spot people checking themselves out all the time in a public gym, but that’s
not why the mirrors are there. They help ensure that you are using proper form.
If you can’t see yourself, you may think you are doing an exercise correctly, but are not. If you CAN see
yourself, you will know if your form is off from the start and be able to make proper adjustments.
Ceiling fans are good options to include, especially if you live in a warm climate. Not only do they cool
you off, but they circulate air, making it easier to breathe and recover between sets.
Make sure to pay attention to your surroundings though. If you have a fan going, and are about to jump
rope or do an overhead press, you don’t want to hit it. The fan always wins!
Aside from the aesthetics, you have to figure out what equipment you want. Just as you can get fancy
and elaborate with the design of your gym, you can also do the same with your equipment choices.
Times have changed over the past decade. Fitness trends have slowly and surely gone in more of a
minimalist direction.
In the big picture, you want to harvest tools that will allow you to target all of your muscles efficiently
whilst also getting an adequate amount of cardiovascular training—all while keeping as much open
space as possible.
Tools like dumbbells, kettlebells, suspension trainers, medicine balls, battle ropes, barbells with weight
plates, pull-up bars, sleds, tires, sandbags, Indian clubs, jump ropes and gliding discs make great options.
A speed bag and heavy bag are also fun tools that afford you the ability to get in better shape
while also getting out some pent up aggression.
