People in some economically developed countries in Europe and America love sports very much. Busy work makes them have little time to devote themselves to outdoor sports, so the family gym has become the main place for them to exercise. Home gyms don't need much space and expensive equipment. As long as the construction is scientific and reasonable, every family can have a private gym. So, what does it take to build a home gym? The design of family gym must have the following elements: first, the size of the venue. Generally, a family gym of 8~ 12 square meters is enough. A small room or balcony will do. Sports venues should be separated from other indoor activities to ensure that sports will not be disturbed by other things. Second, ventilation and lighting. This is an element that cannot be ignored in sports venues. French windows can be installed in the room to ensure the natural and full circulation of air; Meanwhile, the room should be bright. Third, the use of natural materials. Generally, the floors of family gyms are paved with wooden floors, and carpets should be laid in heavier places such as comprehensive fitness equipment, dumbbells and barbells. You can choose a smaller carpet and spread it on the floor when practicing yoga or aerobics. Fourth, the placement of small objects. You can put pots of plants in front of the window, or plant some vines to make the space green. People who love sports generally care about their figure, and the configuration of mirrors is also necessary. The mirror is preferably a full-length mirror. A well-configured family gym is actually a centralized gym. Fitness equipment in commercial gyms can be divided into two categories: one is strength equipment and the other is aerobic equipment. In addition to dumbbells and barbells, there are rowing machines (mainly to exercise the muscles of the back, shoulders and arms) and comprehensive fitness equipment (setting different exercises for different muscles of the human body). Compared with the multi-station large-scale strength equipment in commercial gymnasiums (many people exercise at the same time), household equipment generally has only one or two stations, which takes up a small space, but it is fully functional after "concentration". Aerobic fitness equipment has only one function, which is to load people's heart and lung system and burn too many calories. It is generally enough to have an aerobic fitness equipment in the home gym. Aerobic fitness equipment mainly includes treadmills, stationary bicycles, elliptical machines and treadmills. It is best for qualified people to have both strength equipment and aerobic equipment, which is the most effective for fitness and shaping. In addition to these big pieces of fitness equipment, you can also choose some small pieces of equipment to enrich your exercise form, such as skipping rope and fitness ball. The purpose of scientifically choosing exercise methods and building gymnasiums is to make people better participate in fitness activities. Material equipment can only provide beneficial help to people, and only you can really improve your physique. The fitness effect of the family gym depends on the individual's attitude towards life, whether the fitness equipment is reasonable and whether the individual's exercise mode is scientific. In fact, people of different ages exercise in different ways. Young people, because of their abundant physical strength, can carry out intensive strength exercise; The exercise intensity of middle-aged people should not be too high, mainly aerobic exercise and flexible exercise.
