You’re starting to get out of shape. All the fitness magazines you’ve been reading are telling you the many benefits of working out. You’ve been checking out online articles for different sorts of fitness routines and exercise regimes that you can follow. Your friends (the ones who are already in shape) are pushing you to get on it.
Now you’re convinced! It’s time for you to finally do it and begin putting together your very own home gym. But then you look at the myriad of choices out there, and suddenly you become stumped. Which piece of equipment should you actually get? Which ones do you really need? Some of these machines can cost thousands of dollars, how do you know if you’re getting the most out of your money?
Fortunately, there’s no need to fret because Marcy Pro has your back in helping you to select the right equipment that will give you the most bang for your buck.
Cardio
Rowing Machine
With a rowing machine, not only can you tone your muscles, but you can also vastly improve your cardiovascular system and endurance levels. If the main goal of your workout is to burn calories, a rowing machine is perfect for any home gym, including yours. Rowing can be a significant part of your workout routine, especially if you have any joint problems (just be sure to consult your physician before engaging in any exercise program).
Marcy Pro offers rowing machines that can help you reach those fitness goals. Our Marcy Turbine Rower has various settings that can only help you to chart your progress, and also set ever more challenging pace levels. It has adjustable foot straps that can also ensure safe, comfortable workouts. Supported by a solid steel frame, the Marcy Pro Turbine Rower can allow you to get those challenging cardio workouts in, for many years to come.
When you consider all of its customized features, and its durability the Marcy Turbine Rower is definitely a piece of equipment that will see a lot of use in your home gym.
Exercise Bike
Adding a stationary exercise bike to your home gym is a no-brainer for many. It’s an efficient and convenient way to start losing weight.
With Marcy’s Deluxe Fan Bike, you can change the amount of resistance that it provides without stopping or fiddle with an adjustment level. The way an air bike works is the harder you pedal, the more the fan will push back. This is an especially good addition to your gym whether you’re planning on doing high-intensity interval training, or if you’re just starting out. Not only will your legs get a solid workout, but with the attached exercise arms, you can give your arms some exercise too.
Elliptical Machine
An elliptical machine is always an excellent choice no matter what age or fitness level you’re in. Unlike the more traditional treadmill, the elliptical machine can also help work your arms out while moving the handles back-and-forth.
Marcy’s Elliptical Trainer targets many different muscle groups, while utilizing the eight different preset levels; and the convenient LCD monitors can help you check your speed, time, and amount of calories burned while you are working out. It also comes with oversized foot pedals that can fit everyone’s foot size, allowing you to work up a good sweat in relative comfort and safety.
Strength
Dumbbells
Dumbbell free weights are a must have for any serious home gym set-up. They’re really the most versatile piece of equipment you can own, and are a solid choice if you have limited space. Also, there are a wide array of fitness exercises that you can perform with dumbbells. You can strengthen both your upper and lower body, and also ensure that any strength imbalance is minimized and/or corrected.
Marcy offers many types of dumbbells at various weights. For our more green-minded customers, we have the Eco Hex Dumbbells series that are made with an environmentally safe process that negates any production of greenhouse gases.
Smith Cage Machine
If you’re looking for equipment that can do it all, a Smith Cage Machine is an essential piece of equipment for your home gym. Marcy offers this important, all-in-one piece of hardware, and the value it can provide to your health and fitness is tremendous. our Marcy Smith Cage System MD-9010G allows you to perform a large variety of exercises and fitness routines.
With a smith machine you can work your arms, chest, back, and legs out, so we’re talking total body workouts here. Or, you can choose to focus on a particular muscle group during a workout. Another benefit of the Smith Cage Machine is its safety features. For instance, the chest press bar is married to a set of guide rods that will only allow the bar to move up or down, and if you’re having a hard time, you just have to twist the bar and it will latch right onto the frame, halting its movement. With all that this machine offers, you’ll certainly get the most out of your fitness investment here.
