Multi Gyms for Hire
In a home where space is tight, or where the option to use loose weights is not possible, weight training on a multi gym is ideal. The main benefit is that many exercises can be performed safely on a unit that has a compact footprint. Of course, this means that some exercises are less realistic (or have limited motion) compared to individual training machines, but overall they offer a good solution.
Always go for a multigym with a cast iron weight stack, as the vinyl ones tend to be less smooth to use. Weight training is known as anaerobic exercise, meaning that the cardiorespiratory benefit is minimal. However, benefits include muscle growth and toning, strength gains, and some fat loss (particularly during longer workouts or “super-set” training).
There are many cheap multi gyms for home use, but as with so many things, you tend to get what you pay for. Finding the best compact multi gym will generally mean spending over £1000, because those under £1000 will be compromised either in the exercise choice or the quality of finish. Check reviews on line before deciding.
Training in the home is made more simple by using a multi gym, because the resistance is selected using a pin inserted into a weight stack. Often there are no cable changes needed between exercises, so the work out is time efficient compared to using free weights.
The footprint is small compared to having several machines, and it is more safe since the metal plates are all contained in the weight stack which is guided on steel rods.
Many exercises are possible, especially on home multi gyms that have 2 weight stacks – 2 people can train at the same time.
The best value home gyms have adjustable seats, comfortable upholstery, quality fittings and a good range of weight; these units will last for many years.
