The right home Exercise Equipment can add variety, convenience and consistency to your workouts. But too often, after you've purchased a piece of equipment, you realize you've made a mistake. Gregory Florez, president of First Fitness Inc., a personal training company, cautions against 10 common mistakes.
Don’t Overbuy Features. Like moths to a flame, people are drawn to cardiovascular equipment that has every conceivable readout and calculation. These gadgets often go unused, though, so they may not be the best place to spend your money.
Don’t Skimp on the Basics. Sturdy construction and smooth, quiet operation are what matter most. For example, with treadmills, good deck cushioning and stability are key factors to look for.
Avoid Fast or Sight-Unseen Purchasing. Almost any treadmill feels fine during the first few minutes. Only when doing a longer workout will you notice things like excessive vibration and noise. For cardio machines, spend at least 20 minutes trying different programs, for strength equipment, do a set of 10 repetitions.
Don’t Ignore the Top of the Line. If you don’t try the best equipment first, you won’t know what quality features to look for. Florez advises staying away from infomercial products or other low-price equipment. A store specializing in fitness equipment is probably the best place to start your search. It's not a bad idea to stick to brands you’ve used at health clubs - a manufacturer's quality often carries over into home models.
