Best at home gym equipment?
March 102010
So i worked out all summer but now that school has started im arlready getting out of shape and i dont have time to go to the gym so i need some stuff for my house. I dont have a whole lot of room, so what types of things would be the best to have? Like would small a barbell dumbell set be the best, or just a pull up bar, or some random free weights? I am almost 17 and i am not the strongest but i would probably need weights from like 25lbs for curls to like 70lbs for chest type stuff.
Any advice on home gym equipment would be great too.
thnx!
All you need is a jump rope and a set of re-ajustible dumbbells. To lose weight I recommend jump roping in the morning on an empty stomach for around 5-10 minutes. I say this because you haven’t eaten anything for at least 8 hours so your body will tap into your fat stores as energy instead of having to burn through carbs first. As for gaining muscle with the dumbbells, just go to bodybuilding.com for some tips and great exercising videos. Hope I helped and good luck!

A Pilate’s machine.
I know, Pilate’s????
My mother bought one, and she’s so unfit, quite thin, but unfit. This machine is long instead of high and you physically CANNOT cheat! Its basically a board on runners that is attached to four elastic strips, you can add more or take them away, but it tones stomach, legs, arms adn strengthens all muscles. My father uses it, he’s bulked up a bit and as he has a really bad back he can’t do a lot of exercises. I also use it and I’ve been doing the weight loss program on it. I’ve lost over a stone adn my stomach is now three inches smaller and a lot firmer. I’m stronger and I can hold my arm stands for much longer. I’d really recommend it to anyone!
