6 Tips On Choosing A Cardio Machine For Home Gyms

So, you’re thinking of buying a cardio machine?

That’s great, but before you make the purchase there are a few things to consider. Weigh up your cardio machine options by thinking about how much space you have, what your budget’s like, and comparing the different types of cardio machines.

If you’re trying to choose a new machine for your home gym, just keep reading on! 

1. Consider Your Budget

Indoor workout equipment isn’t likely to come cheap, but some machines are more expensive than others. Depending on your budget, you may decide on a cheaper, mass-produced option, but be mindful that the less-expensive equipment might not last as long.

If you want a top-quality machine, you could be spending over $1,000, but if you can afford the extra expense it’s probably worth it in the long run. 

2. Estimate Your Space

How much space have you got in your home gym setup?

Of course, there’s no point buying a cardio machine that’s otherwise a perfect fit for you, but that doesn’t quite fit in your gym.

If space is a real issue, you might decide to look for foldable equipment like gymnastics equipment for home. Bikes and treadmills, in particular, are often available as foldable versions, but these can sometimes be more expensive.

3. Read Reviews

Review

Just like with any other big purchase, it’s worth checking out reviews online before you buy. 

Companies will always be less vocal about the potential disadvantages of their products, so to get the full truth scour online shops, forums, and social media too. 

If you have friends or family with the sort of exercise equipment you’re looking for, why not ask them what they think about theirs?

4. Consider the Different Types

There are quite a few different types of cardio machines available, and they all have slightly different benefits and drawbacks. Exercise is a key part of biohacking your body, so you’ll want a machine that benefits you.

For example, the benefits of treadmills are well-known; you get to walk, jog or run from the comfort of your own home! 

Then, there are stationary bikes, which can be a better fit if you have back problems. They make you use your legs more than the rest of your body too, so if your legs are an area of focus, a bike might be good for you. 

Other types include steppers, which allow you to climb stairs in a continuous loop, and elliptical machines, which work both your upper and lower body simultaneously. 

5. Check Weight and Resistance Limits

All cardio machines will have a weight limit, so you’ll want a machine with a limit that exceeds your weight by at least 10-20%. If you don’t, you risk both breaking the machine and injuring yourself.

Similarly, most machines have adjustable resistance levels, so that you can change the difficulty. 

The more resistance levels there are, the more you can adjust your training level.

6. Extra Features

While cardio workouts aren’t the most fun thing in the world, extra features like built-in TVs or Bluetooth can make your exercise session more exciting. You might be able to connect your smartphone or external speakers to your machine too!

Choosing Your Cardio Machine

Deciding on the right cardio machine isn’t always easy, but by following our tips you should be able to find the best one for you! Why not start by taking a look at your options today?
