Home Exercises And The Home Gym



If you are like me, you may prefer to exercise at home rather than belonging to a health club or gym. And, there are many exercises that you can perform at home to keep yourself healthy and fit.

If you have the room and money, you could purchase equipment for less than $1000 like the Weider Home Gym. But, you can also get a good workout at home using things that you may already have or you can purchase some inexpensive dumbbells and exercise bars that fit in your door frame.

Here at some examples using a folding chair. A sturdy coffee table or an inexpensive exercise bench would also work:
If you get a set of inexpensive dumbbells, you can do many exercises as illustrated at Dumbbell Exercises.

Of course, most of the Core Exercises can be done on the floor or on an exercise mat.

And the Captain's Chair Abdominal Exercise can be done using an inexpensive exercise bar with ab straps as illustrated at Captain's Chair Ab Workout Alternative.

Check out Exercise-to-a-Healthier-Life.com to find more illustrated examples of exercises that can be done at home to improve your health and fitness.

  3. To be honest - I think you need minimal equipment to turn your home into a gym. Not only is body weight enough, its better than using a multi gym as it focuses on using your core stability a lot (Strong back, better abs, using several muscle groups at once etc...) Try sitting in a squat position back to a wall, place your elbows on your knees do a bicep curl and then into an arnie shoulder press. KILLERS!! or a burpee - Press up, legs in/out, plyo jump to a chin up bar..woop!

  5. Hi Charles, nice article on home fitness. For those who like to workout at home,but don't have space for home exercise equipment, I recommend the MagneTRainer Mini Exercise Bike, which is perfect for home, work or hotel.
