It is getting cold out now(well, at least here in Canada),so thoughts of exercising inside where it is warm are coming to the forefront. On an average day I will walk to the store which is a twenty minute round trip. But, with the upcoming winter looming and the minus forty degrees with the wind chill factor,not to mention the possibility of a few feet of snow, that twenty minute walk becomes forty five or more. Seeing the wind lashing through the tree tops kind of takes the pleasure out of a nice stroll around the neighbourhood.
This article should give you an idea of a way that you can stay fit this winter without having to worry about gaining a pound.
How To Build A Low Cost Home Gym
Copyright 2005 strength-training-woman.com

Purchasing a home gym can become quite a daunting task.
Walk into any sporting goods store and your senses will
quickly become stimulated. Your eyes will gaze at all the
attachments and cables. Your ears will hear the greasy
sales pitch from the store associate. Your mouth will drop
to the floor when you realize a home gym is going to set
you back thousands of dollars.

Consumers have alternatives to the clunky and expensive
home gyms on the market these days. A few simple pieces of
equipment can save you precious space and loads of cash.
You may have heard of the following home gym alternatives,
but rest assured they are just as effective as the
super-duper model 5000 brand in your local sporting goods
store.

A high quality adjustable bench is the first low cost piece
of equipment. An adjustable bench will replace the need
for an incline bench, a flat bench, and a decline bench.
One adjustable bench will save you hundreds of dollars
compared to buying all three single benches. An adjustable
bench is highly versatile and can be used in almost any
exercise.

A set or two of dumbbells is next on the shopping list.
Dumbbells have long been hailed as the better choice among
strength training equipment. They are much smaller than
large home gym machines and much cheaper. The beauty of
free weights is you can start off with 1 or 2 sets and as
you become stronger you can purchase higher weights.
Dumbbells are extremely versatile as well. Almost every
exercise incorporates the use of weights.

The last low cost piece of equipment is a burst resistant
stability ball. These balls are the best thing in fitness
these days. They are excellent for abdominal work because
they support the spine and isolate the stomach muscles. A
stability ball works the abs more than a crunch or sit-up
could ever dream of. These balls are highly versatile.
The ball may even take the place of a bench in some
exercises.

All three pieces of equipment are low in cost, are
extremely versatile and save loads of space compared to a
bulky home gym. While this equipment may not be very
jazzy, it will get the job done for less money and they
will take up less space in your home. Beginners or those
on a budget should rejoice at the simplicity and
versatility that an adjustable bench, dumbbells and a
stability ball bring to fitness.
