Multi Gyms

Q&A: Is it possible to get all the nutrients my body needs w/o taking a daily multi-vitamin?

Question by M and A: Is it possible to get all the nutrients my body needs w/o taking a daily multi-vitamin?
In an attempt to sell their multi-vitamins, my gym’s employees frequently claim that you no matter how well you eat throughout the day your body still needs supplements to get all that it needs. That true?

Best answer:

Answer by jurah
Definitely not true! As long as you are eating reasonably well (i.e. you are getting a daily amount of FRESH non-processed fruits and vegetables) you should be absolutely fine. In fact, getting too many vitamins can actually strip vitamins out of your body. I do not take any supplements of any kind and my doctor tells me I am the picture of health. Of course, that’s just me, and everyone is different, so I would go off your doctor’s advice. I wouldn’t entirely trust what gym employees say, as they often work on commission and are probably trying to sell you something.

Setup Your Own Home Gym For Less Than $2000

by jdanvers

Setup Your Own Home Gym For Less Than 00

If you like the idea of being able to exercise in the comfort of your own home or simply don’t have the time or money to spend on expensive gym memberships and personal trainers then it’s about time you consider setting up your own personal home gym. Setting up a simple home gym doesn’t necessarily have to cost you a fortune, all it takes is a little research and thought about your budget and fitness goals.

Generally speaking your home gym should contain a balance of both cardiovascular and strength training equipment to help your body reach its optimum level. Cardiovascular exercise equipment includes treadmills, elliptical trainers, spin bikes, etc. These will help you lose weight and reduce your risk of encountering heart problems. Strength training equipment includes your dumbbells, barbells and bench equipment. Strength training is vital to improving your muscle mass and will give your body that toned shape and look.

Even if you had an unlimited budget you are still limited to the space in your home and garage so planning is essential on not only what equipment to buy but where to put it as well. You’ll need room to place all your equipment and be able to operate them comfortably with a lot of room. Most homes will have a garage big enough to store all the fitness equipment you need however if you really are short on space you should consider purchasing a ‘multi gym’ which will have all your strength training in one compact piece of equipment. You’ll also need to consider the available power points as some fitness equipment will have LCD screen displays that require a power outlet.

With 00 as a budget you’ll have plenty of options in purchasing a perfect gym set up for your home. Firstly in terms of cardiovascular exercises you’ll probably be leaning towards buying either a treadmill or an elliptical trainer. A high quality treadmill or elliptical trainer that will give you years of usage will most likely cost you around 00. After you’ve chosen your perfect cardio equipment it’s time to move onto strength training.

Here you’ll have quite a few options and choices to make. Whether you want a set of free weights, dumbbells, barbells and benches or just simply a single multi station gym is up to you. Either way you can purchase good quality strength equipment for less than 00 that will work all the muscles in your upper and lower body. Of course you do not necessarily have to go with this set up, alternatively if you want to focus more on your muscle groups more money can be spent on them to purchase better quality pieces of equipment and cardio can be substituted with a simple skipping rope or you could spend more on cardio equipment and substitute the strength equipment with a standard medicine and a few dumbbells. Certainly what you get is what you pay for so the more money you spend the better quality your equipment will be.

With this in mind it’s up to the individual to choose the right set up that suits their fitness goals and budget. Home gym equipment is becoming more and more popular as the prices for good quality equipment are constantly decreasing. Assess your fitness regime and requirements to choose the perfect set up for your own home.

Are Bally’s gyms just a front for a scam operation involving their multi-year contracts?

by ulybug

Question by Daniel O: Are Bally’s gyms just a front for a scam operation involving their multi-year contracts?

Best answer:

Answer by Matthew O
Well, it’s not a scam, and it’s not a front, but that is their primary means of making money. Taking advantage of people’s initial sense of commitment to get them to sign a contract that obligates them to pay even after they eventually give up isn’t a scam, it’s the way to make enough money to keep the gym open for the very small percentage of people who do want to use it.

Home Gym Buying Guide

Home Gym Buying Guide

Home Gym Buying Guide

Selecting the correct gym equipment is important as it is a big investment. If you make the right selection you will get years of satisfying training with great results, all in the convenience and comfort of your own home. Make the wrong selection and you will end up with an expensive clothes hanger.

The following items need to be considered when procuring a gym:

1) Functionality – does it offer good quality exercises that deliver results?

2) Quality – is it manufactured with the necessary quality and durability to withstand hard and consistent training?

3) Space – work out your footprint for your gym

4) Budget

Functionality for Home Gym Equipment.

In my opinion the key aspect of procuring a gym is that if you hit the weights hard, eat right and take care of yourself, you will get results. If your gym does not allow you to do the major compound exercises like squats, bench press, lat pulldowns, rows etc then you are not only wasting your money you are also wasting the time you have spent training. Isolation exercises are great for shaping existing muscle. But if you don’t have enough existing muscle you need to focus on doing compound exercises to build your base strength and muscle mass.

You now have to work out whether you want to go the free weight or machine home gym route. When I refer to free weights I mean training the old fashioned way with a power rack, barbells and dumbbells. In regards to home gyms, you will have to decide between a traditional cable style gym or a leverage multi gym.

Before you decide on whether to go free weight or a machine, you will need to think about what you are trying to get out of your weight training. If you just want to be fit and healthy and are not too fussed with greatly improving your size and strength a home gym will be the best option. Alternatively if you want to build strength or bulk up then a power rack will be the best bet. If you want to build strength and add muscle mass but can’t stand free weight exercises then a leverage home gym is the go.

In recent years there has been an avalanche of cheap cable home gyms hitting the market out of China. While some exercises like lat pulldowns or seated rows are great in cable format the majority of the exercises, and in some cases all the exercises on these cheaper gym are just rubbish. Many times these gyms are just replicated from photographs by factories where the people building them don’t have any interest in weight training. So it looks like a home gym, but the exercises feel weird and can sometimes been downright dangerous. Give cheap gyms the swerve!

There are very good quality cable home gyms on the market but they are nearly always restricted to the weight stack that is on the gym. Some gyms only have 200lb or 90kg stacks. Many gyms have a mechanical advantage – the arrangement of the pulleys mean that you can lift 90kgs of weight with only 60kg of force. That might amaze your friends when you show them how strong you are but sooner or later you will get on some proper gym equipment and look like a turkey!

Another factor with good quality cable gyms is that they often don’t have quality compound exercises. In particular a flat bench press or squat. Seated presses, pec decs, leg extensions and leg curls are good but are no substitute for bench press and squats. They are great for convenience, just put the pin in the weight stack and away you go. You need to work out whether you want to do weight training or not.

Home Gym Quality

Gym equipment needs to be robust. If you are a committed weight trainer you will be training up to 5 times a week and lifting serious weight. Your gym equipment needs to reflect your commitment. A cheaper home gym simply does not have the feel and quality required for serious weight training.

I have seen it so many times; people try and cut corners when buying gym equipment and the following happens:

1) You lose the passion for training as you don’t warm to the cheap feel of an inferior gym.
2) Their training is not adequate. They won’t train key bodyparts like legs because they don’t have the tools to do it.
3) The gym dies and collects dust in the garage
4) End up selling the cheap gym and buying a quality gym – losing coin in the process.

Although quality gym equipment seems expensive it is actually a smart investment. Buy the right gym and it will give you a lifetime of training plus great results. Plus you will save a fortune on gym fees.

A good quality Leverage gym like the Powertec Leverage Gym or Powertec Multi System allows you to perform many exercises with safety like cable home gyms.

Space

This is an issue for most people. There are two factors that you need to consider when selecting your gym equipment.

Firstly you have to work out how much space you are willing to set aside for your home gym. Once again you will have to determine how dedicated you are to your training. Remember that you will be training regularly so it might worth sacrificing your collection of crap in your garage/spare room that has not been used in years.

Parking the car in the driveway may also be considered.

But in reality for most the amount of space will be determined by the missus.

With your home gym area worked out, now comes the fun part. Selecting the gym equipment to fill the space. Don’t make the common mistake of getting carried away and trying to cram in as much as possible. Training in an overcrowded gym is no fun.

I always advise that you go with a little less than try and fit too much in your home gym. Take into consideration that you need to focus on your compound movements to get results and Sam’s Fitness has several different packages that can achieve this result without taking up much space at all. The Ironmaster range is perfect for when space is at a premium.

Budget

I mentioned previously the investment aspect of buying a home gym. I hate using terms like that because everyone seems to use it these days. But as I have said many times before if you train with weights consistently you will get benefits. Training at home is much more convenient for most people so it will help with your consistency.
You need to take into consideration how much you will be spending on gym memberships over the coming years.

As above you will most probably need approval from the wife or girlfriend – good luck.

Conclusion

Hopefully this article has given you some ideas on your home gym. Feel free to contact us directly if you need a hand with planning. We get a lot our business through referrals from previous customers so we know we are doing something right.

A lot of time you will talk to sales people who have never actually trained extensively on the equipment they are selling. We pride ourselves on the fact we have trained for years on Powertec and Ironmaster fitness equipment.

Is 100kg of Resistance on a Multi-Gym sufficient to build big an toned muscles?

by Ed Yourdon

Question by LunaticNinja: Is 100kg of Resistance on a Multi-Gym sufficient to build big an toned muscles?
All the home Mult-Gym’s I’ve seen range from 40kg to 100kg resistance. I’m wondering if 100kg resistance is enough to go Arnold.

Best answer:

Answer by Brian W
100Kg is more than enough, in fact way to much to begin with, slowly and gradually increase the resistance and the reps.

Healthy regards,
Brian.

Home Gym Buyers Guide – Discover These 5 Key Tips

Article Source: http://www.articlesbase.com/ – Home Gym Buyers Guide – Discover These 5 Key Tips

Home gyms, or multi-gyms, can be useful exercise equipment to own, offering the chance to enjoy a total body workout in the privacy of your home. With a good fitness system in your residence, you no longer have to suffer the inconvenience and expense of going to a health club to exercise.

The downside? Shopping for one of these machines can be a confusing, time-consuming process. There are so many questions to address. For example, how many exercises should each machine provide? Should you get the optional attachments? What should you look for in a warranty?

Buying a piece of fitness equipment as large as a multi-station gym is a major investment, and the time you spend researching will be well spent. Here are five key tips that will help you save money and get the best equipment for your needs.

1) Evaluate available space

A home gym will require as much square footage as a wall-unit entertainment center. Before you go shopping, take measurements of the height, length, and width of the area in which you’re planning to set up the equipment.

Plan on having enough space to maneuver around the machine, too. There’s nothing more annoying than bumping into walls and furniture while you’re trying to work out. If you can set aside an entire room, section of your garage, or corner of your basement to your gym, that would work best.

2) Range of exercises

Most home gym systems offer the capability to perform dozens of exercises. Having variety is good — it will keep your workouts interesting.

At the minimum, the equipment should include a chest/shoulder press, high pulley, low pulley, leg extension, and leg curl/exercise attachments.

Don’t let a slick salesperson talk you into buying extra attachments just yet. Get the machine home first, use it regularly for a few months, and buy the add-ons once you’re certain you’ll use them.

3) Resistance Type

The majority of gyms offer fixed weight stacks, plate-loaded systems, or rods. Each type of resistance feels a bit different. This is when you’ll benefit the most from visiting a sports equipment store in person and trying out various models.

A basic unit should include at least 200 pounds of resistance. Although it’s good to have the option to upgrade to additional poundage in the future, unless you’re training for a power lifting tournament, it’s unlikely that you’ll ever need more than 200 pounds.

4) Construction Quality

The frame should be heavy, and sturdy enough to resist wobbling. Look for equipment constructed of tubular or rectangular steel, as these tend to be the most durable.

5) Warranty Coverage

A solid warranty provides 10 years of coverage for the frame, 1 year for moving parts, and 90 days for upholstery. Should you get an extended service plan? Honestly, if you purchase a quality product, you won’t need one, because the better home gyms on the market will usually include a comprehensive, long-term warranty.

Lee Priest Squatting on a Powertec Multi System at www.samsfitness.com.au

PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME. You will void the warranty on your Powertec Gym. I filmed Lee Priest doing some heavy squats on his Powertec Multi System just to demonstrate how durable these machines are. A lot of our customers in Australia can’t see the gym before buying so this is our way of saying this is a fair dinkum multi gym – not some cheap piece of crap home gym. Also don’t believe the dribblers that are importing Powertec copies over here – THEY ARE NOT THE SAME GYM! – If anyone could sell Powertec copies it would be me because I know so much about these gyms so I would know how to build one properly. I don’t sell copies because Powertec is a great value product – believe me I have seen some absolute rubbish copies and it is not worth the risk. Powertec is an honest company run by honest people. It has been a pleasure dealing with them and I am now in my fifth year. Also if you are going to lift heavy on the Powertec Multi System do not use foam jig saw style mats. The ass end of Lee’s gym has sunk through the mats. Hence the rocking!

Commercial Gym Equipment: the best alternative to private equipments?

by US Army Korea – IMCOM

Commercial Gym Equipment: the best alternative to private equipments?

It is not uncommon to find that most people prefer to get a hold of commercial gym equipment as it relates to the ever necessary and important art of keeping fit which normally falls in the realm of being mentally and physically transformed. This has been a trend that has seen lots of individuals go for equipments that are tagged commercial as against those that are manufactured for private use. The reason for this is connected to the fact that the so called private gym equipments do not last as long as it is supposed to, especially when it is been used in the confines of the home or office. This is so because most of the people that actually go ahead to get them do not really keep to a set routine that sees them take out different exercise or workout plans due to reasons such as been too tired and not really getting any form of motivation from a personal instructor or gym instructor as the case may be.

The gym is the perfect place to start any routine and calculated movements that would see you loose some weight or build up some abs as the case may be, but it not all about just getting some money available to register in these different gyms and become a card carrying member. You should already have the basic idea as it relates to what your body really needs as at the time of your registration. Some people actually go ahead to purchase some multi home gym equipments without really knowing how far they need to go as it concerns their structured strength. Most of these gym equipments after they must have been purchased, are just not strong enough for use by different people at once, but in a case where an individual actually saves up the money intended for the purchase of a private gym equipment for the home or the office, and further goes for a gymnasium in his or her neighborhood that actually boasts of a commercial gym equipment, you would find that your initial dreams of seeing some abs appear and all that unwanted fat burn, would not only be realized, but you would also have fun in the general workout process.

Commercial gym equipment is seen as a cheap alternative to getting fit as it presents us with different possibilities of achieving our set out targets in the gym as it relates to our keeping fit and healthy. This is a well known fact as they are mostly constructed in a ways that often stands the test of time as it relates to the daily use of it. This cannot be said of the private gym equipments as observed above; they are mostly fabricated to be an item of decoration in the homes without it having to add any positive value to the body.

With all, this in mind, it is very important that people actually go for machines or multi gym equipments that have been tagged as pre owned just for the fact that they usually are very strong when it comes to the way and manner it had been used, and at the same time, you find out that taking this route actually saves you a lot of money in the long run. Getting a hold of commercial gym equipments has even been made a lot easier now as there are numerous companies that deals in them and takes a hold of other gym equipments that are refurbished and re plated as the case may be for the use of individuals like you and I.

How to Use and Choose a Home Gym in Scottsdale

by jdanvers

How to Use and Choose a Home Gym in Scottsdale

Thinking about buying a home gym in Scottsdale? This article will provide you with information on how to use a home gym, along with basic safety and buying tips. Whether youâre looking for a basic setup or one with the latest technology has to offer, the following information will be beneficial to you and will help you choose the exercise equipment thatâs right for you.

Home gyms combine a number of pieces of equipment for various strength training exercises. They have different configurations that offer exercises for legs, arms, chest, and back. You will usually be able to do a seated bench press, flys, a pulldown or row, leg extensions and curls. Some have a leg press. Some have pulley systems that allow a variety of exercises. Often there is a biceps attachment and you can do pushdowns for your triceps. You may be surprised at how many exercises you can do on a home gym! If youâre looking for extreme intensity with your home gym, try doing your exercises slowly to make them harder.

Hereâs a safety tip: Be careful! Pay attention to what you’re doing. Practice proper techniques and use same precautions you would with anything that has moving parts or heavy objects. And remember – always consult a physician or healthcare provider before beginning an exercise program.

Shopping for a home gym in Scottsdale can be very intimidating! There are so many different brands, models and styles it can be next to impossible to choose the right one for your home. For most people, buying a home gym is a major investment. Itâs also a good investment for those who have decided to make a conscious effort to be fit and healthy. That is why it is important to put together a checklist that identifies attributes that are most important for you and your workout. Here is some information that should help you out:

There are endless options when it comes to choosing the right fitness equipment for your home gym in Scottsdale. But the choices for weight training equipment basically fall into a few categories: portable, free weight, multi-gyms, and total gyms. Aerobic exercise equipment such as treadmills, rowers and stationary bikes are always options for a great cardio workout, but for now we are going to concentrate on strength training equipment.

Portable Equipment â Includes everything from dumbbells to workout benches, stability balls, steps, mats, ab machines and more. If you can pick it up and move it, it fits in this category. The main advantage of portable workout equipment is that you can fold it up (if necessary) and put it away when youâre through with it. Some equipment, like stability balls and mats, is even compact enough to be taken along on a trip which makes portable equipment a popular choice for home gym equipment.

Free Weight Accessories â This includes adjustable benches, power racks, barbells, dumbbells and plates (also called round weights). While some of these things may be portable, they are all categorized as heavy duty equipment that often times are part of a larger assembly. If the space you require for your home gym is small, free weight accessories are probably your best bet. Youâll be able to get a great strength training workout in with equipment that will test you to the max.

Multi-Gyms â There are several different types of multi-gyms available for home use. The first type is based on steel or composite bands and cords that create resistance. The second type is based on stacked weights, uses a cable and pulley mechanism and allows you to select the desired weight. The third type includes round weights that are manually fitted to barbell extensions. All of these are great options for a home gym. What you choose will depend upon the type of workout youâre trying to achieve and the amount of space you have in your home.

Total Gyms â A total gym uses an adjustable bench and a sliding seat platform that increases resistance based on your own body weight. While the total gym may require more space, it will allow you to incorporate more strength training exercises into your workout.

To help you decide which option to choose when it comes to home gym equipment in Scottsdale, you should consider what your goals and level of commitment are. The best way to decide on equipment is to test it out before you buy it. It could save you from wasting a lot of money!
