 |
|
Whatever the reason may be, you're ready to ditch the health club and start working out at home. But what pieces of equipment to buy? Here are five essentials to any budget garage gym set up:
1. Pull Up Bar
This could be as simple as one of the newly-popular 'door gyms' or it could be something sturdier and more permanent. Regardless, you'll need something to do your pulls on. Pulling is one of the main movements you really can't do with just your own body weight.
2. Dynamax Medicine Ball
Another very versatile Gym in West Singapore; can be used for anything from from sit ups to rotations to upper body throws.
3. Olympic Weight Set
A 300 pound olympic weight set gives you the option of doing some heavier lifting, which is important to include in your programming at some point.
4. Kettlebells
Kettlebells are a great tool to have for your garage gym. They give you the flexibility to hit all your major muscle groups in a very efficient manner - not to mention helping you get a resistance training and cardio workout all in one shot.
5. Jump Rope
Jumping rope is great cardio - plus it's compact and a heck of a lot cheaper than a treadmill 
All of these pieces of equipment together can be purchased for less than $500 - so not only is having a garage gym convenient, it's affordable - $500 is less than a year of membership dues at most health clubs. |
