The Home Gym Guide

Home gyms have never been more popular than today, and with the uncertainty of the current pandemic, it seems they will continue to be all the rage. The downside to this home gym boom is that it has become tough to source equipment at a reasonable price and delivery schedule.

To ease some of the pressure around setting up your at-home sweat station, we thought it would be a good idea to put together a few options to help guide your investment.

A quick note on “cardio machines”…

I like rowers and air bikes because they utilize the entire body, have easily quantified metrics, and mix up the motor patterns away from walking and running. 

For air bikes, I don’t think you can beat the Rogue Echo Bike 

For rowers, Concept 2 is still the best machine available. 

If running is your main jam, though, and you are looking for a way to do it inside, then I’d give the TrueForm Trainer a look.
