Purchasing cardio exercise equipment for your own home is an excellent idea. You're much more likely to use it when it's in the room down the hall, as opposed to the gym 15 minutes up the road. Even still, I have clients who just have a hard time doing cardio- even if the treadmill is in-house! But that's not you, right? So, read on.

Items to consider when buying cardio exercise equipment:

Make sure that you have enough space. The smallest of the bunch is usually an exercise bike. All the others -cross-country ski machines, a treadmill, ellipticals and rowers take up much more room. You can plan on an area 7 feet long by 4 feet wide. Also, if you want to watch a TV, allow at least 8 feet between you and the screen.

Always try before you buy. You should put in an actual workout on whatever it is you're considering before you commit. Of course, one way to do this is at your local commercial gym.

Don't buy cardio exercise equipment that's going to aggravate preexisting injuries. For example, if you know that your joints can't handle running long term, you may want to consider an elliptical or exercise bicycle.

The only cardio machine to buy is the one that you will actually use. If you don't like running, obviously you would be better served buying an elliptical or an exercise bike than a treadmill.

Cardio Exercise Equipment Specifics:

Treadmill

Make sure that you get a treadmill that has a running surface of 3 feet wide and 50 inches long, or greater. If you're over 6 feet, you'll need one even longer.

Make sure to try the treadmill out. Make sure it has plenty of shock absorbing capability.

Find a treadmill with a 1.5 horsepower engine or greater.

Stair Climber

You will find both motorized and hydraulic units. Gyms usually use the motorized type.

The stair climber should keep your knees behind your toes. This will protect your knees. If it doesn't, it could lead to issues down the road.

Elliptical Trainer

Ideally, look for an elliptical that includes hand motion. These allow you to include another element to your workout.

Some ellipticals are rather inexpensive, but expect to pay around $2,000 for a good one that feels like it belongs in a commercial gym.

Exercise Bike

The exercise bikes found at health clubs usually use magnetic frictionless resistance. This is preferable.

Make sure that your bike gets you into a comfortable position. If not, would you actually use it?

Rowing Machine

Get a unit with a flywheel that generates resistance for the most realistic resistance. These units are nearly as authentic feeling as the WaterRower machines. These actually incorporate water into the design for resistance.

Make sure that the unit creates equal resistance throughout the complete stoke.

Expect to pay $700 for a decent rowing machine.

Cross-Country Ski Machine

If you aren't experience, the movement of cross-country skiing can be difficult to get used to. Find what is known as an independent action unit. This creates a more intense, natural feeling workout.

The NordicTrack, for example, will cost around $700.

This year my new resolution is to get in shape and become a healthy person. I also want to make sure that my family as a whole will do the same thing - especially my children. We want our children to live happy lives and in order to do that they need to be healthy as well.

There are two ways to make sure that your children grow up healthy and strong. Feed them the right foods and make sure that they exercise. I know that many parents feel bad making their kids exercise and I also know that many kids are not interested in this. So why not make things a bit more fun for them?

I found that one of the best tools to use for my child and to get her interested in exercising was to purchase her a kids kick wave master bag. These bags are very similar to the ones that we as adults use - except that they are smaller and more durable. If your child is learning self defense or any type of martial arts they can use this to practice with.

If its raining outside and they need some exercise and a way to take out their energy than they can set this up and practice their moves. You child will find that they can exercise the way they want to with this punching bag without hurting themselves. It is built with special high density impact resistant foam. For extra protection you can purchase them gloves and foot pads to make sure that they don't break anything.

To set them up all you need to do is to fill the base of the punching bag with sand and water. The height can be adjusted from 38" to 53". When your child is not exercising and getting in shape and of course - having fun - you can roll it away into the closet for next time.

The prices of these special bags can range depending on the quality of punching bags and the size that you choose. It's time to help your children get in shape and if you want to do it with them you can always purchase a full size bag for yourself!

Kids Kick Wavemasters is a great way for your children to get in shape - but what are you doing for yourself? There are dozens of adult size Wavemaster Punching Bags that have been designed for a more enhanced workout that will help you to get in shape and feel great.
