montain regardless of the time of day or weather without leaving your home. Treadmills are a popular piece of aerobic equipment for home use.

Resistance equipment - a good compliment to any home gym. The two most common kinds of weight equipment
are Home Gyms are real value for money, however, they require expert
instruction and supervision for proper use to avoid major injuries. Home gyms or multi-stations are generally safer to use but are more expensive,
and the
price tag often reflects the quality of the machine.
Rowing Machines One of the most complete cardiovascular exercises around has to be rowing. A proper workout on a rowing machine will
tone all of the major muscle groups such as your legs, back and arms.
The beauty of using an indoor rowing machine is first of all it doesn't involve water.
This rower doesn't get you wet, there are no early morning trips to get your machine out of the boat shed. No cold changing rooms and gale force
winds for your training session.
There are lots of different machines available on the market. Although they generally fall into 2 categories:
- Water rowers
and..
- Air rowers
The water rower, which contrary to its namesake, do not end up in you getting wet after a vigorous workout. The machines are very beautifully
designed and use enclosed water and paddles for resistance as opposed to air. These rowers tend to be quieter than air rowers and are just as
much works of art as they are exercise machines.
The air rower comes in many different varieties but the concept 2 is commonly accepted to be one of the best,
if not the best. They are engineering masterpieces and are all calibrated to the same standard. So, if you do a certain time on a concept 2 rower,
you can rest assured that, that time will be replicated exactly on another concept 2 machine. This is the reason why the world indoor rowing
championships use the concept 2.
The bottom line is this: All of these items are good choice if they are equipment that you will actually use. Real thought, consideration and
research needs to be done in order to purchase exactly what you need. Remember, you are the only one who knows what you need but with a little helpful
advise you can build yourself an excellent gym and achieve the results you have always dreamed of.
