Best Warranties for Home Gym Equipment

Posted on by axavier

Have you ever purchased an item, used it for a couple of months, and then it broke, and you wished had a warranty on that broken feature? We’ve all been there. Sometimes we overlook the value and importance of a warranty. It can tell you a lot about a product’s longevity, quality, and performance.

When shopping for a piece of fitness equipment for your home gym, make sure to check the specs, quality, brand, price, and of course, warranty. Finding a cheap product that can meet your needs and has a lower warranty than the more expensive product can tell you a lot about what you’re buying. “You get what you pay for” fits perfectly in this scenario.

If the fitness equipment you’re buying has the following, you’ll find yourself a great product.

  • Solid construction & durable frame
  • Easy-to-use navigation and real-time results
  • Specs that fit your lifestyle
  • A price that fits your budget
  • Warranty that has reliable coverage

Now, if you’re questioning that you don’t want to invest a lot of money to get a good fitness product for your home, you don’t. But do remember you’re investing in more than the equipment itself; you’re investing in yourself to become a better athlete and healthier individual, both physically and mentally. Luckily for you, TRUE Fitness checks all those boxes with products that have won users over for over 40+ years across the United States.

Were you thinking about putting your plan into action at your local gym? Be careful.

Creating a Simple Home Gym Is Easier Than You Think

Posted on by Angie Tinsley

There are endless pieces of equipment that can be added to a home gym, and depending on your size and space requirements, you may be able to fit all the fitness equipment you want.

Whether you’re a busy parent, don’t have access to a nearby gym, or just enjoy having accessible equipment in the comfort of your home, there are plenty of ways to create a simple and effective home gym.

Get In Your Cardio No Matter The Weather

If you live in an area where there is plenty of room to run outdoors, many will say that you don’t need a treadmill in your home gym. However, imagine running when the temperatures are below freezing and the wind is blowing or if the hot sun is beating down on you with unbearable humidity — neither of these conditions are an ideal running environment.

But, if you incorporate a treadmill, you provide yourself the perfect solution to run no matter the weather.

For example, the TRUE Performance 300 Treadmill has features that cater to individuals who crave simplicity as well as those who like to stay ahead of the technological curve, including 4 unique user profiles and fitness app integrations.

One of Treadmill Doctor’s “10 Best Treadmills”, the Performance 300 is also equipped with all features standard in TRUE Treadmills and an Orthopedic Belt for ultimate impact reduction on joints and knees.

If you’re not a runner, pick an alternative cardio piece like an elliptical or bike. Upright bikes offer a low-impact cardio experience that can be used in place of an outdoor bike. Recumbent bikes are perfect for members of the active aging market thanks to the walk-through design. The ES900 is the perfect premium bike for users who experience low back issues thanks to the elastic mesh seat for support.

Ellipticals are great for those who enjoy a cardio workout and have joint pain when running. The Performance 300 Elliptical includes 12 unique workout programs to constantly challenge and improve your body.

If you’re looking for a full cardio experience, combine a treadmill, elliptical, and bike to your home gym!

Make Room For Functional Exercises

Functional equipment is the easiest type of fitness equipment to store in your home. You can keep medicine balls, Bosu balls, or kettlebells in a closet as a simple source of strength training, and as a bonus, you can also use this gear to assist in certain plyometric exercises. If you prefer a more structured machine, try Quickfit, an efficient solution to all of your in-home training needs.

This equipment is also the easiest to share for multiple people to train at once if you’re looking for additional accountability, encouragement, or some light-hearted competition.

Incorporate Flexibility & Relaxation

Lastly, keep a yoga mat in your closet as well for your off days — you can then do yoga, Pilates or whatever suits you. A good yoga mat is also perfect for keeping you comfortable while you do your ab crunches and for stretching before or after your workout.

Set Up Some Entertainment

To make workouts go by faster, many people opt to include a TV in their preferred workout area. By keeping a TV in the room, you are not only entertained, but also able to expand exercise your possibilities.

For example, having a smart TV will allow you to stream YouTube videos for sample workouts of all types. Don’t want to miss your Thursday night show? Watch it on your TV while you run a few miles. Are you more of a music person? That can be accessed on the TV as well.

The entertainment possibilities are near endless given the resources of modern technology today.

If you don’t want or can’t put a TV in your home gym, TRUE consoles feature many entertainment options to choose from, including music and videos so you don’t get bored.

Whether you are looking for equipment in a new home gym or looking to refresh your space, consider your options – keep it simple, but make the space completely yours!

Pain vs. Discomfort

Posted on by Angie Tinsley

As we established before, the “no pain, no gain” mentality has a very fine line. Bear the pain, but don’t overuse. Push to succeed, but don’t stress over it. But there is also a fine line between preventing injuries and unhealthy habits and not pushing yourself enough to see results. In order to keep excelling and reaching fitness goals, a little discomfort while exercising is to be expected, and it’s important to know when your pain is beneficial rather than harmful.

4 Reasons To Enroll Your Child In An After School Fitness Program

Posted on by Angie Tinsley

Now that school has started, you may be wondering if there is an after school program that you child could enroll in so they can have fun and safe place to go after school. And if you do enroll them, what are the benefits? After school programs that have a fitness program can positively impact your child’s physical and mental health in a variety of ways:

Promote Healthy Eating

When looking for an appropriate after school fitness program, it is very important to determine if the food provided to your child is healthy. In fact, 71 percent of parents agree that an after school program should provide healthy foods to their students. By giving them healthy foods and drinks and teaching them about nutrition, an after school fitness program will encourage kids to eat healthy and maintain a healthy weight.

Help Your Child Make Friends

According to StatisticBrain, over half of kids who do sports chose to participate so they could be with and make friends. With that in mind, finding a good after school program for your child will help them build valuable social skills like listening to others that will help them meet new people. Building positive relationships with others will help your child learn who they are and what is important to them.

Expand Their Horizons

Do you know the old adage, “You’ll never know unless you try?” After school programs actively encourage students to try new activities from day to day so their routine doesn’t get boring. With such diversity, your child is sure to find something that interests them, like playing soccer or another sport.

Teach Teamwork & Cooperation

After school programs that emphasize fitness also emphasize teamwork and cooperation as a result. Sports are a great way to teach kids how to work together with others and how to settle disagreements. When they have learned these valuable skills, they will be prepared to face challenges in the real world.
