If an office space is large enough, putting in a piece of fitness equipment is a convenient way to fit a workout into a busy day. Getting up and walking or jogging is a healthier alternative to prolonged sitting at a desk, boosting energy levels and improving heart and overall health. These machines are also a good fit for company gyms, accessible by all employees.
Types of body fitness machines
There are many types of fitness equipment available and choosing the right one can make a difference. All exercise machines contribute to overall fitness and health, especially when considering cardio workouts. Others work certain muscle groups such as legs, upper body, and back, these include.
- Treadmills
- Elliptical machines
- Rowing machines
- Inversion tables
There are multiple models to choose from when selecting exercise bikes, including recumbent bikes that allow the user to sit in a reclined position while they pedal. Other models simulate a real-world biking experience, creating challenging courses that feature “uphill” resistance, demanding more effort for an effective workout. Elliptical exercise machines work both the arms and the legs at the same time, targeting multiple muscle groups.
Exercise equipment for physical therapy
Some equipment is useful in physical therapy applications, helping patients to improve their gait, or restore proper function to muscles while improving range of movement. Treadmills, stepping machines, and stationary staircases offer an easy way to re-accustom patients to everyday movements.
Other gym accessories
A wide range of smaller pieces of equipment also form part of an effective workout or therapy regimen. Ab rollers help to strengthen core muscles while kettle bells provide invigorating weight-lifting routines.The soft, shock-absorbing surface created by exercise mats reduces impact when performing floor exercises or yoga.
Space-saving storage
Many fitness machines feature designs that economize on the space available. Treadmills and bikes fold up, and feature wheels for rolling up against walls or into closets. Smaller pedal machines fit beneath desks, and some treadmills and exercise bikes also function as desks, putting the ability to exercise and get work done in a single piece of equipment.
