Home Gym Series: 3 Things To Consider When Switching To A Home Gym

Making the jump from working out in a gym to your own home gym brings a grocery list of benefits.

You’ll save time with no commute
You’ll save money with no membership (or you can allocate your gym fees to buying home gym equipment)
You’ll be more efficient with less distractions
You’ll have more opportunities for fitness with the gym hours being 24/7 (see what I did there?).

Pretty great list, right?

Well, like with any gym membership, it only works if YOU work and you’ll only get the list of benefits above if you actually use it.

That’s what I wanted to write about today. Though a home gym is more accessible, more cost effective, and more time-saving, it can be a tough transition working out in your home, basement, or garage.

Home Gym Series: Peloton and Strength Training - How To Improve Your Peloton Rides

I love spinning, I always have. It’s been the only group exercise class I’ve consistently taken in a gym setting since college. The music kicks ass, the instructors are always fun, dark rooms, fun lights.

On a physical level, Peloton/ spinning is low impact (easy on the joints, taxes your lower body and lungs (what’s up physical growth?), and has measurable metrics that can be used to track improvements.

It’s my jam, for sure.

So Peloton, though I don’t have one - my wife wanted a treadmill instead (*insert eye roll*)- would definitely be something that I consider, and have recommended to friends and clients who I think would enjoy that community driven approach.

Okay, Casey, pipe it…how do I get better at my Peloton rides and how do I increase my output?
