More and more people every year are pledging to get in shape and for good reason. Fitness is a great hobby to get into because once you find something you like doing, you can keep at it while improving your actual overall health.
That being said, many people are also becoming more and more interested in having home gyms.
Home Gyms
Home gyms are great for a number of reasons, namely long-term cost and lack of other people to bother you.
For the fitness enthusiast in your life, there are many things you can get them in order to help them out with building a home gym or just to use in general, even if they like going to a normal gym.
If you’re shopping for someone who’s interested in starting a home gym, you can start them off well with some adjustable dumbbells. You’ll want to be sure to get a set that can go high enough for them in weight because there’s nothing worse than working out with dumbbells that are too light.
Adjustable dumbbells are great because they come in one compact set, so you don’t have to have a whole massive rack full of them just to have all the different weights you want. Make sure you get a pair, as well, so that they can use both at the same time.
Smart Watches
The latest fitness smartwatch is always a great option, as well. They’re always being updated with new features and new functions, all of which are very important to keep track of and very useful to have as someone who’s interested in fitness.
For example, earlier models of smartwatches didn’t all have heart rate monitors, which is something very important to have, especially for someone who does plenty of cardio and wants to track their heart rate.
Treadmills
A treadmill is great for anyone looking to get into some cardio, especially if you don’t have great streets to walk around in your neighborhood. Old treadmills were typically pretty expensive and really large, but that’s not always the case now.
Nowadays you can get treadmills at a much more reasonable price, and you can get ones that don’t take up much space at all. There are even some that are meant to be put under desks so that you can stand and walk while you work.
There’s also a great variety in what all features you want. Some people are just fine with the essentials. They just want to be able to control their speed and see how far they’ve walked, and there are definitely treadmills that do only that.
However, for people that like to get a bit more interested in their fitness routines, there are treadmills with many more features such as built-in workouts, full touchscreens that are Bluetooth compatible, and more.
Do you have a home gym? What’s your favorite piece of equipment?

Ha, just this Saturday one of our neighbors put their exercise bike up for grabs at the curb – for free, and I was saying to my son “I wonder how long it’ll take until someone takes it.” I haven’t been out there since.

It is probably gone already! We put my father’s old one on the curb and it disappeared within minutes!

What a great list! My granddaughter has been working out and I can see an exercise bike for her in the near future!
Debi
Nice list. The only thing is a treadmill takes up too much space. Grateful to live in FL where we can walk outside yearround.
Dominique
That’s true for most. However, many treadmills fold up and roll away now. Several listed on the post do that…
I agree with walking outside if possible though!
