Let’s face it; the gym is not all you thought it would be. You arrive with the intent to have a great workout.

Still, instead, experienced men grunting with every lift of a measly 20-pound dumbbell, women dolled up and parading around as if in a fashion show, the sweaty and nasty equipment you don’t want to touch with a 10-foot pole. 

People gym fees his faithfully, but are unfaithful to working out. Do yourself a favor and stop throwing money away.

Cancel your gym membership and create your perfect home gym. You will not only be in the comfort of your own home but you will also save money and meet your goal of losing weight.

 

Budget gym equipment

What equipment should you get for a home gym?

1.)    Adjustable Dumbbells

Kick the myth that lifting weights will bulk you up to look like a man.

Studies have shown that lifting weights can increase your metabolism and create lean muscle, which in turn will make you look thin.

Adjustable dumbbells allow you to lift your desired weight without having to buy a set of 20 dumbbells.

2.)    Weighted Jump Rope

Jumping rope burns more calories in less time and is more straightforward than many exercises performed today.

 You will burn an average of 11 calories a minute to give you an idea of its benefits.

A weighted jump rope burns a considerable number of calories and can increase strength, which all promotes weight loss.

3.)    Stability ball

The stability ball is an overall great piece of equipment that you can use to train your whole body. It improves balance and coordination as well as build muscles.

4.)    Pull up Bar

The pull-up bar easily fits into your doorway and can be for exercises such as pull-ups, chin-ups, hanging knee raises knee to elbow, hanging leg raises, and much more.

5.)    Aerobic Stepper

This may make you feel as if you stepped back into the ’80s, but the aerobic stepper is a great way to improve your posture, torch a high amount of calories and practice your skills in the at-home instead of embarrassing yourself falling over the stepper while at the gym.

6.)    Yoga Mat

Yoga mats protect you from the creepy crawlers that roam the floor. It also provides you with a bit of cushion as you do your exercises.

7.)    Workout DVDs

If you enjoyed instructor-led exercise routines, there are many options to choose from that fit your style and goals. A few of my favorites are listed below. 

  • T-25 by Shuan T includes 11 nonstop 25-minute workouts that allow you to get an hour’s results in just 25 minutes a day with FOCUS T25.
  • Zumba Fitness Exhilarate Body Shaping System DVD- Comes with a variety of dance styles around the world, shorter as well as longer workout intervals and include maraca-like Zumba Toning Sticks.
  • PiYo Base by Charlene Johnson has 10 easy-to-follow workouts that combine the muscle-sculpting, core-firming benefits of Pilates with the strength and flexibility advantages of yoga.

8.)    Ab Roller 

This may seem like a simple piece of equipment that will not work, but it will give you work out you will not expect.

The ab roller strengthens and tones your upper abs, lower abs, obliques as well as defines your shoulders, arms, and back.

9.)    Punching Bag  

The punching bag is my absolute favorite exercise. It improves your overall strength, releases stress, and improves your self-defense techniques.

There is an option of standing or suspended punching bag depending on the space you have in your house.

With the use of a punching bag, you will need boxing gloves to protect your hands and knuckles.

You will also need wraps to protect your wrist and if you may need an extra set to protect your ankle if you decided to kickboxing.

10.) Adjustable Bench 

The adjustable bench allows you to change the bench to various positions to perform dozens of upper and lower body exercises.

Music is the motivation to push you through your work out. Regardless of if it is rock, classical, rap, country, or gospel, you need a good sound system that delivers.
