Training bench
A basic but multi-purpose training bench is a must-have in
your gym. Definitely suitable for beginners, the training bench
is a diverse piece of equipment that serves its purpose for
seniors and young athletes as well.
2. Dumbbell set
Also an important necessity for beginners, young athletes and
seniors. The dumbbell set should range from light to heavy in
order to accommodate for everyone. Dumbbells come in a
variety of sizes, shapes, and materials these days, from
plastic-coated to colourful to straight-up metal, so take your
pick. Get a set with a rack and save time and space, too.
3. Treadmill
For beginners who are looking to lose some weight, the
treadmill is the way to go. A fantastic form of cardio exercise,
your gym should have a treadmill that has varying inclines,
speeds and provides heart rate monitoring.
4. Stationary bicycle
Also a great form of cardiovascular training, the stationary bike
is an alternative to the treadmill for working cardiovascular
endurance.
5. Barbell Set
Younger athletes also tend to focus on heavy strength
training and do not just aim for simple weight loss. They
aim to tone their bodies with weight training. The barbell
set has several options:
6. Rowing machine
Athletes can do a lot with a total-body rowing machine, especially
a strong aerobic workout. Unlike the bike and treadmill that focus
more on the lower body, the rower offers a head-to-toe workout,
engaging the legs, core and upper body.
7. Low-impact treadmills
This type of treadmill is a must-have for seniors who come to
your gym. As a gym owner, it is common to know that as you
get older normal treadmills, running on concrete and tracks
can prove to be hazardous for the knees.
8. Ellipticals
Ellipticals are also non-impact in nature which means the
back, knees, and ankles will all be protected. This is very
important when considering seniors at your gym as older
people tend to stay away from equipment that could further ha
rm their joints.
