5 Tips For Setting Up a Home Gym

At UberFitness we believe your home gym should be a place where can go to be inspired and motivated to get results based on your goals. We have seen it all before, the person that wants to workout at home and buys a piece of junk equipment they see on late night TV or is sold a piece equipment out of a catalogue at the local sports store from the guidance young schoolboy who works at the store on weekends and has never really trained a day in their life, it sits in the corner cold of garage or the spare room, it is uncomfortable and boring to train on and ends up collecting dust and is on the street for the council pick up the following year. And you? You've given up by this stage and continue to go on a walk around the block twice a week and scratch your head thinking why your not getting results. 

If you want to train at home and are serious about getting results here are 5 Tips to setting up an amazing home gym that will get you results.

  1. Dedicate a space in your home, we recommend at least a 3m x 3m space
  2. Good flooring is essential and inviting and creates a real gym feel, we recommend 1m x 1m rubber floor mats 
  3. Mixture of equipment cardio, strength and mobility equipment will keep your training 
  4. Design a space that is inviting and motivating so when you go to your home gym it inspires you to achieve your training goals. Put a lounge and a TV in there if you can fit it and also use it as a place of relaxation and reflection. 
  5. Follow a progressive training program and track results, remember training is a journey not a destination, set goals achieve them then reassess and repeat. Tracking your progression through training will inspire you every session to hit your goals.
