After extending the "breakwater lockdown" into January, it's still important to find ways to exercise at home. Sports keep you fit and healthy, and regular exercise is also a real booster for your immune system. Take the chance! What could be better than working out in your own safe, familiar environment? A home gym offers you many advantages. Check out our guide to learn how Keiser Europe can help you implement your own home gym!
What are the benefits of having a private gym in your own home?
Of course, there are real advantages to working out in a gym. I'm sure you did your research before signing up for a membership. It lacks the professional instruction, the group classes, the feeling of "we" - all the DInge that foster that special motivation you find at the gym! At the gym, you undoubtedly have a wide selection of machines and various equipment, so you can make your workout varied and versatile.
But moping around won't keep you fit! That's why we've put together an overview of all the benefits that working out at home offers you:
- No driving time: And that also means you don't have to look for a parking space, pay parking fees, take public transportation detours, and just save an insane amount of time and nerves! You can just invest the free time at home in a little extra.
- No opening hours: You don't have to wait for your studio to open, you can work out at any time of the day or night!
- No monthly costs: Sure, you have to invest at least 1x in your own HomeGym, but your home gym doesn't cost you any monthly fees.
- No waiting: You don't have to plan, look around and wait until a machine is available for you!
- No Noise: Panting, groaning, annoying conversations across multiple pieces of equipment? Don't worry, at home you won't be disturbed by the sounds of other people.
- Good music: And that also means you can play your own music while you work out. No matter how loud or quiet you want it.
Of course, if you have your own HomeGym at your disposal, you'll still have it when the gyms finally open again. So there's nothing standing in the way of an extra session at the weekend or in between!
Fitness at home - how to replace the gym?
Of course, you can't completely replace the gym. But you can create good alternatives to stay in shape at home. You need a small basic equipment of strength and cardio machines. After that, it's important to motivate yourself at home and stay on the ball! Appropriate apps can help you with this. Keiser Europe offers you suitable training apps with ready-made courses. This way you can connect with users from all over the world and get a little "we" feeling at home!
Can you achieve the same results at home as in the gym?
It depends a bit on your training level and your training goals. Of course, a gym offers you completely different conditions for training than a home gym. But even at home you can train successfully in the short and long term and achieve your goals!
For this to work well, you should think about what you want to achieve even before you buy any equipment! Especially in winter, the weather often ensures that good intentions for outdoor cardio training are thrown out the window. Of course, you can't set up a full cardio park at home - so consider which piece of equipment you'd prefer to use for your cardio home workout. An indoor cycling bike, for example, will give you a high-energy workout to good music and a high fun factor. But maybe a cross trainer or rowing machine is more to your liking - take your time and decide!
You should also set clear goals for strength training and choose the right equipment for it. If you want to press as much as possible, you should think about buying a weight bench and a suitable rack with the necessary safety devices. If you're more concerned with toning, a few dumbbells might be enough. Or do you want to work functionally? Then a cable pull tower and a set of kettlebells might be the answer for you!
