Getting membership at a gym is very expensive and has some other limitations as well. You can’t opt for paying a visit to the gym any time you want, or it might not be very close to your house, or it might not be convenient enough to workout according to your daily schedule. But even with all these restrictions, keeping fit is important. To solve these issues, you can buy home gym equipment and stay tension free with a one-time investment.

While choosing the best home gym equipment, along with other factors, keep the following factors in mind:

To enlighten you about the best home gym equipment, we present you the 10 best home gym equipment reviews.

This machine is called the ultimate home gym. It provides more than 70 exercise options, which is more than double than its competitors. This all in one home gym equipment offers resistance for exercises via Bowflex Power Rods, instead of putting weight stacks. These rods can generally provide up to 210 pounds of resistance. However, if you are stronger and need further resistance, you can upgrade them to provide 310 pounds or 410 pounds of resistance.

With the cable pully system that is used in this machine, you will hardly ever need to change the cables. The pully system offers 4 different positions for allowing you to work on all parts of your body, with different angles. Despite of accommodating more than 70 exercises, the all in one home gym equipment takes up only 8 feet by 6.5 feet space at your house. But, it is 6’11” high. So, make sure there is at least 7 feet space between your floor and ceiling.

This machine is designed to accommodate only one person at once with only one comfortable seat. But it does include 5 types of hand grips for further improvising your workout.

The Bowflex rods are covered by a lifetime warranty; and the frame is covered by a 7 years warranty, which is better than almost all of its competitors.

The only drawback is that it doesn’t come up with an instruction DVD. However, you can find many guides online and hence this should never be the issue.

The price range isn’t very high. This is overall a very good buy for anyone with any kind of fitness.
