Perfect Pushup

24 people recommended this item

Description

I have to admit, I was more than a little skeptical about this gadget. I know it was designed by a former Navy Seal, but that did little to ease my doubts. I was afraid it was something that would merely help you crank out more reps at the expense of proper form. But, none of that prevented me from wanting to try it out. I was quite impressed. It provided a great workout for my chest and triceps. And, if you have wrist issues, this should be a more comfortable way for you to do pushups. Total thumbs up to the Perfect Pushup.

GoFit Chin-Up Bar

First to recommend

Description

These babies go fast, so order quickly. There are a lot of chin up bars out there that promise great results but at twice the price, they take up too much room, and they are more difficult to set up that a chin up bar should be. For these reasons, that's why I recommend this chinup bar. It's simple to put up, doesn't take much effort, doesn't take up too much room and will give you the same results as any other bar. A chin up bar should be simple. (via amazon.com)

Valeo Dual Ab Wheel

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

If you don't have one of these in your home gym, you really owe it to yourself to get one. Primarily, the abs are the core to your body and if they are not strong you could injure yourself or misalighn your body. That being said, this wheel will get your abs in shape in no time. And, they'll make you look fabulous - if that is you can get up the next day from the soreness you'll feel. (via amazon.com)

Bowflex SelectTech 552 Dumbbells

First to recommend

8 people recommended this item

Description

If you looking for weight gain, definition, or want to stay lean, these are the dumbbells you need. Reviews I read put them at the top of any home gym equipment you might need. They are also adjustable which allows you to work all major and minor muscle groups without having to look for the right weights. Plus, they are inexpensive and don't use up much space. In terms of dumbbells, this is the top of the line. (via amazon.com)

AmeriBag Healthy Back Bag

Other shoulder bags might look similar, but none are built like these. The teardrop design distributes wieght over the backs and hips so the load feels lighter, even if you're carrying some serious weight.

My friends and family swear by these, and my daughter got a kids version for her swim/tennis practes. get one and get out and have some fun! (via ebags.com)

BestABS Exercises - Powerful Ab Exercises and Workouts

First to recommend

Description

Certainly you've heard of 'the core." Yes? No? This refers to your abdominals and it's called core because without strong abs you will suffer in any sport you do. On the other hand, it you have strong abs, you will reach the stars.

I first heard of this concept in college. I ran cross-country and track, and our coach made us do a gruesome ab workout every day. Within 3 months I was running a 5:00/mile every mile in every 5 mile cross-country course. There was no turning back.

This workout gives you everything you need to develop strong, healthy, and by the way gorgeous abs. Latest research shows that defined abs attract more women than any other part of the body. (via bestabs.com)

Swim Workouts for Triathletes velogear

First to recommend

Description

Do you get tired of getting in the water not knowing what strokes and at what distance you'll do that day? Do you simply swim freestyle until you've hit your target number of laps? Do you get frustrated that you can't reach your target heartrate? This described me until I got this swim workouts for triathaletes. Now I don't have to think when I get in the water. I simply prop up the waterproof workout on the floort above me and go to work. Each workout is different but takes you through a progression from easy to hard, and it's perfect for those who compete in triathalons or in swim meets b/c it also provides workouts that get you to your goal (tapering and everything).

Swimming is no longer boring. I have grown to love it more than running (something I thought would never happen). I'm swimming faster and may I say more cut, defined than ever. And, the chicks dig me. (via velogear.com)
