Buyers Guide Why home fitness equipment makes sense Every year thousands of people give up their gym membership in favour of investing in home fitness equipment. Our customers, just like you, are generally very busy people who want to save time and money whilst keeping up a healthy lifestyle. Joining a gym is not only expensive but far more time consuming than a quick workout at home, so buying home fitness equipment makes sense.

Here's how you too can benefit: Save hundreds of pounds on your annual gym subscription. The average cost of a gym is £50 per month and the joining fee is extra. There’s no distance to travel to get on your equipment, it’s available to use 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In the time it takes you to drive to the gym and back you could have run for at least 20 mins on your treadmill. You don’t have to compare yourself against anyone else, whether it’s beautiful bodies or the designer gym clothes that are parading around the gym. Never again be deterred from your workout by the weather. The convenience of owning a fitness product means you’re more likely to use your own equipment more frequently than if you were a gym member. You are not limited on the time you spend on your own equipment compared to the limits set during “busy” periods. There’s no hanging about to get on your exercise bike whilst you’re waiting for the next person to finish. There’s no need to organise a babysitter or pay extra for the gym crèche. It’s much nicer to shower in the comfort of your own home. If you have a joint membership at a gym then you can save even more on monthly membership fees! Your whole family can benefit and get fitter. Training at home is well suited to the elderly and those needing to exercise as part of a rehabilitation programme.

Once you have decided that Home Fitness equipment is the way to go you will need to decide which bit of kit to go for. The four main types are Treadmill, Rowers, Bikes and Elliptical Crosstrainers. It is important to always choose a machine that you like and enjoy using. There is no point in buying a bike if you don’t like cycling. It will just become the most expensive clotheshorse you ever bought! If you are unsure what you most enjoy there is always the option to hire a piece and see how you get on with the added bonus of getting your first months rental back should you choose to buy. Subject to terms and conditions. Click here for more information on our rental scheme. Also it is good to think about where and when you will want to do your training. Will it be in the garage where space might not be such an issue when choosing a treadmill or in your bedroom where you will need to think about the weight and dimensions of the machine? Many of our models are folding and this will help in deciding which is the right one for you.
