Many of us find sticking to a regular workout routine difficult. Unfortunately, the health risks of not exercising are too serious to ignore, as the chances of developing heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes all increase significantly through lack of physical activity. Whilst many of us are aware of the health risks of not working out, only 23% of Americans get the recommended amount of exercise.
One of the reasons for this is the time and money required to visit the gym. And for some people, the long queues for equipment and self consciousness also make visiting the gym unpleasant. For anyone who has struggled to commit to a regular exercise routine and hates going to the gym, we recommend creating a yard gym at home. Many of us have a section of our yards that we don’t have any use for – whether it’s a patch of grass or a garage. This space is perfect for creating a yard gym!
Studies have shown that a home gym is 27% of people’s most desirable feature in their home. People are often put off by the cost of installing a home gym however the cost isn’t as huge as you might think. One of the best things about a home gym is that it’s personalized to your needs, which means you only need to invest in the equipment that you know you will use. It’s also a long term investment and much better value than a gym membership.
If you’re aspiring for a better and healthier you in 2019, a yard gym could be a great way to achieve this. In case we haven’t already convinced you, Prestige Lawns have created an infographic to show you 6 amazing benefits of having a yard gym on your property. Read on to find out more!
