Tips To Buy Exercise Equipment
- What are your goals? Do you want to grow stronger glutes? Improve upper body strength? Build a stronger core? Boost your cardio endurance? Lift weights? Increase flexibility? Look for a program that fits your needs.
- Will you really use exercise equipment? Or is that exercycle going to be used to hang bags on? Is the treadmill going to be forgotten, tucked away forever in the corner of your room? Before you buy, prove to yourself that you’re ready to stick to an ongoing fitness program.
- No piece of equipment can help you spot reduce. There is no such thing as “spot reducing,” since you cannot burn fat off a particular part of your body. However, while spot reduction of fat is not possible, toning of a muscle is. Your exercise equipment can certainly help there.
- Be aware of outrageous claims. Claims that promise “easy” or effortless” results are false.
- Check the fine print. Some products have advertised results, which require more than just using the machine.
- Try the equipment before you buy. Get details on warranties, guarantees, return policies, and customer service. Always choose reputed brands with dedicated service centres.
