Find your Hot Deal for you home gym before the Holidays

The holidays are here and now you  and other people think about New Years Resolutions the first thought that pops up after the holidays is I need to join the gym and get some equipment or start exercising more. December and January are big months for fitness equipment dealers and health clubs. We will probably all agree in the hustle and bustle of daily life getting to the gym can be difficult.

Some will opt for a new elliptical trainer or a treadmill instead and run off to the local Sports Retailer and buy a piece of equipment to get started. Some of what you may find in the retail stores may in fact be decent but most of it is just flimsy, what many consumers may not know is that you can purchase quality used commercial fitness equipment just like corporate health facilities have for a fraction of the original cost.

These are brand names you typically will be familiar with such as Life Fitness, Precor, True Fitness, Body Masters, Cybex, Hammer Strength, and more. Many large gyms lease equipment and after 2-5 years replace everything. This is where you can obtain a bargain as some of the elliptical and treadmills and circuit are cleaned repaired, painted and fully reconditioned to be in like new shape.

Check out all of the hot deals for the Thanksgiving weekend.  When buying refurbished equipment take it for a test drive make sure it smooth and all electronic parts are functioning.

Buying the Best Fitness Equipment

Many people are looking to buy home exercise equipment these days and find the selection overwhelming and confusing. This is normal, because there are literally thousands of possibilities. The bottom line is that choosing the right fitness equipment depends on your goals. If you want something to help you lose weight and get generally fit, the product you choose will be vastly different than if you want to start training to take part in a specific sport. Other considerations should include your age, starting fitness level, your budget considerations, and your amount of storage and set up space.

There are several options for people who are looking for a simulated running machine in their home. Treadmills are the most traditional route. They can be purchased with a wide variety of power and features to help simulate most running environments. Treadmills may not be appealing to people who are looking to reduce the stress on their joints. For those people, ellipticals have become a very appealing option. These machines mimic a running motion without reproducing the impact with the ground that can cause joint and bone damage. New treadmills and ellipticals can be quite expensive, which is why used fitness equipment is such an attractive option.

For more specific conditioning you can look to fitness equipment like bikes and stair climbers to target specific areas of the body while still getting a cardio workout. Stair machines
are great for all parts of the leg: calfs, quadriceps, hamstrings and a variety of others. Exercise bikes can accomplish the same effect. Whatever type of muscle group you are trying to target, you'll be able to find a piece of fitness equipment to suit your needs.
