Cheap Gym Equipment

For an effective home gym, you'll need a combination of cardio and strength training equipment. Treadmills, exercise bikes, and rowers are excellent for cardio workouts. For strength training, consider getting some dumbbells, kettlebells or a weight bench or squat rack with weight plates. Resistance bands, yoga mats, and stability balls can also help you round out your fitness routine.

Appliances Online is an excellent option for purchasing high-quality yet affordable gym equipment in Australia, with a wide range of fitness gear, including treadmills, exercise bikes, rowers, and strength training equipment, at competitive prices. Plus, Australia-wide free delivery* is particularly useful when buying heavy gym equipment that other retailers often charge expensive shipping fees for.

When selecting a treadmill or exercise bike, consider factors like motor power, belt size, incline range, built-in programs, and user weight capacity. Reputable brands like ProForm and Reebok offer high-quality options with features tailored to diverse fitness goals. A lot of gym equipment will have a warranty for one year, though some brands will offer up to five years, which in itself can be an indication of confidence in the quality of the product.

For strength training at home, opt for adjustable dumbbells, Olympic barbells, and weight plates that allow you to increase or decrease resistance as needed. Hex dumbbells and kettlebells are also versatile options. Consider a power rack, squat rack, or Smith machine for safe and effective lifting. Look for equipment with a sturdy, durable build and a clear weight capacity.

To make the most of limited space, look for compact, multi-functional equipment like all-in-one home gyms or functional trainers with pulley systems. Wall-mounted racks and folding benches can also help optimise your floor area.

Ensure proper ventilation, lighting, and temperature control in your home gym. Invest in gym flooring or exercise mats to protect your floors and provide a non-slip surface. Follow safety guidelines, especially when using free weights or resistance machines. It’s also a good idea to consult with a fitness professional to design a well-rounded workout plan tailored to your fitness level and goals.
