7 Great Buys for Starting a Home Gym

2011-12-09T14:43:00.001-05:00

With the new year coming upon us soon many of you will be thinking of what your resolution will be this year. Undoubtedly many will commit to "working out more" or some other sort of fitness related goal. Gym memberships will increase and there will be some crowded weight rooms around the country for several weeks. If you are serious about committing to fitness then starting your own Home Gym is a very good option to consider. While initial costs are more, you will save money over the long run (and time as you will not have to travel to and from the gym). Here are 7 items we have found vital to our own home gyms (for more information on each product you click here):

1. Exercise or Weight Lifting Bench: You can usually get a quality bench for under $200. One of the most versatile peices of equipment, this is definitely a must have for a quality home fitness routine.

2. Dumbbells: Your goals and budget will play a big role in what you choose here as several options are available including neoprene, vinyl, Hex, Pro Style and more. The cost of dumbbells can add up so be sure to carefully consider your goals and level of commitment before purchasing.

3. Kettlebells: Again there are several options here (Cast Iron, Vinyl, Competition). Long used by serious body builders, kettlebells have gained extreme popularity in recent years for their effectiveness in giving you a total body workout in a short period of time. You can usually find a lower weight kettlebell or pair in the $50-100 range. If you are serious kettlebell enthusiast then a kettlebell set may be for you.

4. Medicine Ball: If you will be working out alone most of the time, you will want to get a ball that bounces. Again, there a ton of exercise that be performed and many medicine balls come with a workout chart to get you started. Quality medicine balls normally run around $50.

5. Resistance Bands: Great for getting in a quick workout and perfect for taking with you when traveling. You can perform many of the same exercises as with dumbbells at a fraction of the cost and they take up much less room. For under $50 you can get a set with a variety of resistance levels.

6. Push Up and Pull Up Bars: For just a small investment you can turn any doorway or spare room into a home gym with one of these versatile pieces of fitness equipment. You can go all out and get a wall mounted unit or a just go with a doorway pull up bar. Push up and Pull Up Bars (especially doorway pull up bars) are great additions to home gyms when you do not have a ton of room for your home gym.

7. Treadmill, Ellitpical or Exercise Bike: While many of the pieces of equipment will provide you with a cardio workout as well, there is no substitute for the workouts provided by any one of these machines there are several budget friendly brands and models available. If it is still not in your budget, you can always run outside.

As we mentioned there are almost limitless amounts of home equipment available. This is just our list of favorite and most effective items, with an eye towards affordability. Establishing a home fitness routine and having a home gym can be a very rewarding experience. The whole family can get involved as well for a fraction of the cost of gym memberships over the long haul.

5 Tips for Sticking With a Home Fitness Routine

2011-08-25T21:14:00.000-04:00

Despite your best intentions you have probably given up on one or more commitments to get yourself into better shape. Many of us have told ourselves "this will be the time I stick with it" only to be back to old habits within a few weeks. Why do we fail to stick with it? Lack of discipline? Laziness? Probably not. More than likely it is just failing to come up with realistic goals and a plan to stick to them. Check out these "pitfalls" of establishing a home fitness routine and how to avoid them:

Not Enough Time: Many of us feel as if we are stretched to the limit as it is with our jobs, kids, etc. This is probably the biggest reason for not beginning a fitness routine. However, a key first step is deciding to go with a Home Fitness Routine. You will save travel time to and from the gym right off the bat.

Once you have started your home routine you may feel like you do not have time to keep it up. A key point is to carefully think about the times you will have to workout and plan your workout accordingly. If you are a night owl, it probably does not make sense to decide you are suddenly going to begin getting up at 5am to workout (although this has worked for some people if they stick to it long enough). BE FLEXIBLE! More than likley you will have to adjust your workout timing periodically.

I Don’t Have the Money to Buy the Equipment I Need: A lot people think it is expensive to begin a home workout routine. However, if you start small and use the right equipment you can accumulate enough equipment to have a full fledged home routine for less than one year’s worth of gym membership fees.

Resistance Bands, Jump Ropes, Kettlebells, Dumbbells, Medicine & Stability Balls, Aerobic Steppers and Ab Rollers are just a few examples of fitness equipment that can each be purchased for around $50 or less.

Not Having a Plan: This is key and often leads to the “I don’t have enough time” pitfall. Once you have worked out a time schedule of when you will do your workouts, think about what you want to accomplish and what equipment you will need to do so. You can start small, say a 20 minute jump rope exercise 3 or 4 times a week and build from there.

Not Setting Realistic Goals: Being realistic is key to not getting discouraged. You will want to think about what your ultimate goal is, whether to lose a certain amount of weight, adding weight and strength, or building up stamina and set incremental goals.

Keeping a journal of your progress is a great way to track your results and stay on track. Having to write down your workouts will give you a sense of accountability.

Losing Interest or Getting Discouraged: To avoid losing interest you will want to change up your routine from time to time. Some people need to do different activities daily while others may be o.k. with just a few changeups a year. The reality is, if you do not spice it up a bit you will more than likely lose interest at some point. Research different programs and pick a few that interest you and mix up your routine from time to time.

Another great way to stay motivated is to involve a workout partner. Whether it is a spouse, significant other or friend, you can schedule workouts together or just set goals together and share experiences or workout tips to keep it fun!

Remember, if you do get off track do not get discouraged or give up. Life happens and we can all get sidetracked.. Just refer to these tips and see where you may have went wrong. Then, come up with a revised plan and get back to it. Good Luck!

How to Choose the Right Kettlebell for You

2011-08-21T18:34:00.001-04:00

Kettlebells are an extreme form of training, and not for the half-hearted. This is not meant to discourage anyone from taking up kettlebells, but rather to caution them that this is a serious workout. The popularity of kettlebell training in the U.S. has increased immensely from Eastern Europe so if you are a newbie to training with these then make sure you are aware of the proper way to use them. If you start out with improper and unsafe practices you’ll soon find yourself hurt, uninterested, and get no results. Hopefully with the correct methods and training, you will find yourself on the fast track to immediate results.

Men usually start with a kettlebell that weighs between 25 and 35 pounds, while women tend to begin with a 12 to 26 pound kettlebell, depending on their fitness level. They will range from as low as 2 lbs all the way up to 106 lbs (obviously for expert body builders). Safety is of the upmost importance when using kettlebells because you will drop them from time to time and 35 lbs isn’t something you want landing on your foot. Here are some big no-no’s when it comes to training with kettlebells.

Training when Over Fatigued – if you are drained don’t pick the bells up. When you are fatigued you are not concentrating and that can lead to very serious injury especially when lifting the weights over your head
Overcompensation - when working with kettlebells it’s important to remember that not all exercises are intended to be muscled up. Most exercises need good hip snapping movements. Also avoid leaning back to help the weights up. A straight back is part of proper lifting. Keep your shoulders back and your chest forward. Failure to do so indicates unsafe habits and fatigue. Improper Balance and Swinging – an example of this would be if you are doing a swing exercise and you find yourself on your toes. While performing swing exercises with your kettlebells, proper technique is to have the heels flat. Also, avoid swinging the bells too far away from your body because you will most likely end up hitting yourself.
Bending Elbows and Wrists – the most common flaw you will encounter is bending your elbows and wrists. This lessens the control you have over the kettlebells and the effectiveness of the workout, as well as raises the chance of injury.

At Sophisticated Fitness, we carry a great selection, including vinyl kettlebells and cast iron kettlebells. We also provide our customers with great kettlebell workout ideas as well as other exercise routines on our fitness tips page. We’re always researching and trying out new workouts and sharing them with you so check back often.

Explore the Many Benefits of Medicine Ball Exercise

2011-08-19T19:20:00.000-04:00

Medicine balls are frequently used for strength training and rehabilitation because they’ve proven effective. They also provide a variety of exercises that can be performed to improve:

· Cardiorespiratory Endurance, Stamina, and Flexibility

· Helps improve blood flow

· Strength, Speed, and Power

· Accuracy, Coordination and Balance, and Agility

Medicine balls can be utilized to enhance exercises that many of us already incorporate into our fitness routine, such as sit-ups, crunches, core strengthening, and push-ups. These simple exercises can be made more intense by using a medicine ball. It improves dynamic movements and resistance for a more effective workout. Try combining it with a stability ball for an even more advanced workout. Medicine ball training is an ideal way to train with a partner or solo. Try one of these medicine ball workouts on our fitness tips page!

Enhance Any Fitness Routine with a Yoga Roller

2011-08-17T19:16:00.000-04:00

Get more from your yoga routine by introducing a yoga roller. Yoga rollers can be found in almost every athletic training facility today. They not only strengthen your lower extremities but also help to reduce soreness. How you may ask? The answer is massage therapy. Yoga rollers have become a favorite among athletes, especially pro athletes. Recent studies show that yoga rollers massage your muscles to help aid injuries and even strengthen your muscles to prevent further injury, and it can be done alone. By using your own body weight and a yoga roller, you can perform a self-massage to help loosen up tight muscles, while increasing blood flow and circulation to the soft tissues.

Try our Jfit EVA foam roller that provides firm support for all body types and is made to last much longer than single construction foam rollers. This foam roller is ideal for enhancing balance, body awareness, flexibility, and dynamic strength. Enhance any Pilates core abdominal exercise with this high density foam roller. It’s also great for self-massaging of the upper and lower back, calf, hamstrings, glutes, and quads. This foam roller will allow you to enhance any workout without breaking the bank.

Discover the Benefits of Core Training with Exercise Balls

2011-08-04T20:44:00.000-04:00

Core strength is one of the most important aspects of staying fit, and we at Sophisticated Fitness believe that exercise balls, such as stability balls and medicine balls, strengthen your abdominals and tighten your core quicker than many other pieces of equipment. The exercise ball challenges your balance and resistance and makes you use your internal abdominal muscles just to sit on it. The most important thing when working out with a stability ball or medicine ball is making sure that it’s the correct size. An exercise ball that’s too large prevents your feet from touching the ground, making it unstable. Whereas, a ball that’s too small compromises your position, lowering your hips below your knees. Choose a fitness ball that’s right for you to get the most efficient and effective workout.

Here are some guidelines to consider when choosing an exercise ball:

   Height                               Ball Size
Under 4'8"                              45 cm
4'8" - 5'3"                               55 cm
5'4" - 5'10"                             65 cm
5'11" - 6'4"                             75 cm

Once you have the correct size ball, you will need to find the best place with adequate space to do your workout. You’ll need a flat surface, and the general rule is a space of 2 feet longer than your height and 2 feet wider than the width of your arms. A good core workout performed with stability balls or medicine balls will greatly strengthen your abdominals, hips, lower back, hamstrings, and glutes. Medicine balls add extra resistance for a more intense workout.

Why Take Fish Oil Supplements?

2011-08-02T23:27:00.000-04:00

Fish Oil is loaded with a variety of beneficial nutrients, one of which is Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids. Our bodies can not produce Omega-3 Essential Fatty acids on their own. They need to be ingested in the body through food and dietary supplements. Many health officials agree that Omega-3 Fish Oil contains an array of health benefits including:

Improved heart health
Better brain function – improved concentration, memory and less likelihood of depression
Works to lower your triglycerides and balance cholesterol
Reduces joint inflammation and pain
Improve health and appearance of you skin and hair
Strengthens immune system
Can improve the focus, color and clarity of vision
New research has shown that taking Omega-3 fatty acid (Fish Oil) supplements during pregnancy may protect babies against the development of allergies and reduce the number of colds in infants

Most researchers feel it is the anti-inflammatory properties of fish oil that make it able to provide so many benefits to our bodies. You will want to make sure the Fish Oil you chose has the best anti-inflammatory properties. Also, be sure the Fish Oil has a high content of high quality Omega-3 and DHA and does not contain any contaminants such as mercury. Lastly, be sure the Fish Oil supplement you chose is derived from fresh fish.

The List of B Vitamins

2011-07-28T23:03:00.000-04:00

The B Vitamins are a group of water-soluble vitamins that play many important roles in maintaining superior health. The Vitamin B group includes 8 chemically distinct vitamins that often can be found in the same foods. These include:

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine): Works with other b Vitamins to break down and release energy from food as well as maintaining the health of your nerves and muscle tissue.
Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin): Keeps the skin, eyes and the nervous system healthy. Produces steroids as well as red blood cells.
Vitamin B3 (Niacin or Niacinamide): Also helps to produce energy from foods we eat. Works to keep the digestive and nervous system healthy.
Vitamin B5 (Pantothentic Acid): Another of the B Vitamins that works to release energy from the foods we eat. Also used in many cosmetic hair products and to treat acne and obesity.
Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine, Pyridoxal, or Pyridoxine Hydrochloride): Helps the body to store and use energy from protein and carbohydrates in food & helps to form haemoglobin, the substance that transports oxygen from the lungs to body tissues.
Vitamin B7 (Biotin): Promotes healthy hair & strong nails as wells as supporting cellular energy production.
Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid): works with Vitamin B12 to form healthy red blood cells. Works to reduce the risk of certain central nervous system defects.
Vitamin B12 (Various Cobalamins): Making red blood cells, keeping the nervous system healthy, releasing energy from foods we consume and processing folic acid.
Vitamin B-Complex: Generally, supplements containing all 8 are referred to Vitamin B Complex

A deficiency in one B Vitamin usually means a deficiency on other B Vitamins so it is important to give your body the appropriate amount of each. One way to do this is by supplementing your diet with a B-Complex supplement. The B Vitamins often work with other nutrients promoting absorption and assimilation of various vitamins and minerals. Receiving all of the B Vitamins in one capsule can help to ensure that they assist each other to be more effective in the relationship between other vitamins and minerals.

Stay tuned for more information on Vitamin B including the recommended daily dosage for each.

Beat the Summer Heat!

2011-07-18T23:05:00.000-04:00

Just wanted to pass along a few tips to beat the summer heat as the dog days of summer are fast approaching (not to mention the heatwave sweeping through the Midwest right now).

Schedule physically demanding activities at cooler times of the day. This includes doing your running / jogging at night or early morning. If running at night you may want to consider wearing a reflective running vest for your safety. Also, consider this when planning family activities or those trips to fair or amusement park.
Drink lots of water. Seems like common sense we know, but if you are exercising or working outside drink even when you do not feel thirsty.
When working or exercising outside take plenty of breaks. Now is not the time to be pushing yourself to new limits!
Eat light, nutritious meals and foods high in water content like fruits and vegetables.
Use sunscreen. We recommend SPF 15 or higher.
Wear light, loose cotton clothing and hats to keep the sun out of your face.
Stay in Inside! If you do not need to be outside in extreme heat, don't go!

Heat Exhaustion and Stroke is very serious. While the most at risk people are seniors and children everyone is at risk. if you experience any signs of heat exhaustion such as dry mouth, dizziness, fatigue and weakness, clam,y pale skin please consult a physician or ERT as soon as possible.

The List of Vitamin D Benefits Keeps Growing

2011-07-17T22:01:00.000-04:00

Vitamin D, sometimes referred to as the "sunshine vitamin", is an essential fat soluble nutrient the body makes from sunlight and is also found in fish and fortified milk. Some research suggests that along with building strong bones other benefits include strengthening the immune system and lowering risks of diseases like diabetes, heart and kidney disease, high blood pressure, cancer and most recently multiple sclerosis.

Despite this impressive list, certain studies have shown that as many as nearly half of adults and children have less than optimum levels of Vitamin D. Dietary sources of Vitamin D include fatty fish species such as catfish, salmon, mackerel, sardines and tuna, Fish Liver Oils such as Cod Liver Oil, beef liver and whole eggs. Check out this article for a guide on how much sunlight is optimum for obtaining adequate Vitamin D levels.

If you live in a northern state and don't get enough sunlight year round or do not include enough of the foods mentioned above Vitamin D Supplements can be an effective way to reach your bodies optimum level of Vitamin D. It is important for us to note that none of the claims above have been approved by the FDA and that every individual is different. It is wise to consult your physician before consuming any nutritional supplements.
