To gym or not to gym?
Tied down with work or family? The expensive gym membership? The long and troublesome journey to the gym? Or you just started gyming and are afraid your friends might see you in your white chicken-ass skinny frame? Or most likely, it is the gym politics you are facing and hate to feel inferior next to those cocky big bench-snatching guys hogging the benches.
Fret not! An alternative to avoid the above situations is to create your own home gym. It may not necessarily burn a hole in your pocket if you know where to buy, and buy exactly what you need. Most people make the mistake of buying more than or lacking in what they need. Don’t fall into the trap of creating a useless but expensive home gym.
You only need the most basic products that can train almost every part of your body such as plates, dumbbells, shortbars, longbars, and a bench. For benches, most people would get 3 different ones: incline, decline, and flat. This means 3 costs. To reduce your cost and save space, an adjustable bench can cater your needs of all 3 benches. If you are worried about not having a spotter, you can get a bench with a support behind so you can use your barbell at ease.
Another mistake that people make is not getting enough plates. Before that, you need to ask yourself: Are you training for strength, or endurance? For strength training, you need heavy weights. For endurance, you need light weights as the importance is in the reps. You normally use 30 to 60% of the maximum weight used in strength training. Knowing this can determine the plates you should buy.
Dumbbells are the most crucial equipment because it can train almost every part of your body, if you know how to do it. You can do squats, bench press, flys, pullovers, curls, crunches, deadlifts, lunges, step ups, and raises, to train up your arms, triceps, forearms, pecs, traps, middle back, lower back, deltoids, abs, quads, and calves. And cost a mere SGD per set!
