Thread: Make Room For Home Exercise

The President's Council on Physical Fitness recomends at least three 30-minute strength-training sessions each week and at least three 20-minute bouts of cardio exercise each week. For clients who want to exercise, but have time or space constraints, here are three in-home solutions.
FOLDING EXERCISE SYSTEMS: these fit under beds or store in closets and include basic rowers, treadmills, exercise bikes, resistance bands, chin-up bars and mini trampolines.......price range $15 to $500.
CORNER-ROOM WORKOUT SYSTEMS: These typically do not get put away and offer a more complete workout, with strength and endurance exercise. Manfacturers include Bowflex, NordicTrack and Weider.....price range $200 to $1,500.
GARARGE WORKOUT SYSTEMS: Clients can install large uiversal weight machines, free weights and cardio machines, such as steppers, eliptical trainers or treadmills. Price range.....$1,200 to $5,000 +.

Sounds good. We could all use a little exercise in our busy lives.

Who needs more exercise, exercise equipment, saunas, etc. I just spend an hour or two every day, outside in 80-90 degree temperatures with jacket and long pants on, and move heavy boxes around for fun. And did I mention they are full of stinging insects?

This business can certainly lend itself to some bad eating habits... Not to mention bad sleeping as well! But in the end, its all what you make of it.

I set up half of my garage as a little mini-gym, if you keep your eyes open on craigslist or in the local paper you can find a lot of good deals.

yup, defiantly important. how much does the average business professional ever get to work out or run?

I wish I had more room in my garage for exercise equipment, unfortunately there are too many toys out there. For now I will have to keep on commuting 3 minutes from my house to the gym every time I want to work out.

Boise, I would like some information on this equipment. I am on the Board of Directors of our HOA and trying to allocate some room in our clubhouse to fitness equipment.

Exercise is sooo important. I have heard about many people (friends, neighbors, etc.) lately who are having heart attacks and it scares me.
