Workout at Home: Gyms
built 170 days ago
Shurin worked extensively with Gaiam, the leading at-home fitness media producer, to create a specialized adjustable hoola hoop and an instructional DVD that comprise the Dance Hoop Workout. The program is fun and low-impact, but still provides a challenging, calorie burning cardio workout that strengthens the core, reshapes the waist, and inspires a child-like euphoria. The hoop is weighted and padded, so it moves around an adult body more easily and it is more comfortable to use than the hoops of yesteryear. The popularity of hoola hooping has spread from the west coast to the rest of the country, with hooping for fitness classes popping up in gyms nationwide. Gaiam created the Dance Hoop Workout so people could enjoy this great workout at home and on the road; the hoop can be quickly disassembled and packed in your luggage.

One of the major benefits of doing exercises at home is the convenience. Especially if you are a parent, there are often time pressures that don’t allow you to escape to the local gym for an hour workout. Never mind the challenges you may face once you hit the gym, such as waiting for machines or just broken machines in general. If you are at home, the environment you workout in becomes that which you make it.

You can get the same benefits at home as you would in a step aerobics class at the gym. If you have a staircase in your home, you can get a great workout by simply climbing the stairs. To start, stand at the bottom of the stairs and walk in place for about one minute to get your leg muscles warmed up. Next, step up onto the first stair, and then back down. Repeat this move on the first stair only ten times. Walk in place for fifteen seconds.

[One] bonus to working out at home is that there aren’t any membership fees to worry about. If you or your child becomes ill, or if you find the week too busy, then you don’t have to feel guilty about missing a few days at the gym. Furthermore, you don’t have to worry about negotiating your way out of contractual obligations. No hassles, just a stress free environment where you can rejuvenate.

The Supreme Pilates machine is ideal for those who wish to do their Pilates workout at home rather than at a gym. The machine is durable and high quality. Even people with limited space will find that a Supreme Pilates machine can work for them because the machine folds flat into a space saving size that can fit almost anywhere, including under a bed.
