Fitness equipment and the expertise to build your own gym: Play it again Sports Atlanta

Hello Atlanta personal training group: Build you own home gym and equip it with right wieghts and exercise machines. You have decided to chuck the Gold's Gym and LA membership and want to train at home. People all the time ask me to assist them with everything from to just adding a couple of items for exercise to buiilding a home or condo complex, appartment gym. For a person who just wants to go bar bones, gym I recommend dumbell free wieghts, a set can run something over $100, this will give u a pretty good start for you home gym. Next step would be to ad some exercise machines, ie leg extension machine, leg curl, lat press, tricep pull downs etc. Another option is to add aerobic equimpent such as Tread Mills, Elipitical exerciser and maybe a exercise bike. The shop that I recommend to work with is: Play it again sports at 4279 Roswell Rd NE Atlanta, GA 30342 Ph:(404) 257-0229, I have worked with them many times on building home gyms, Condo and appartment gyms for my clients.

Run and Jog with your pet, maybe even your Trainer

Walk and even better run with your dog . People that run/walk with the dog are 50 percent more likely to keep the pounds off, Great for your dog to. Right now in my personal training practice I have 3 people who take there dog on runs/ walks. For a couple of the clients I hold the the dog so they don't have to worry about Fido smelling the fire hyratts or chasing squirels etc. I even have one client that pays me just to run and workout here dogs out, all in a days work for your for the Atlanta personal trainer.

Running Buddy, Running with a fitness pro

Hello Atlanta Fitness group, I've had several clients over the years as running/ jogging buddies. The advantages are to have a experienced runner with you to work on running techniques, propper breathing, and running drills etc. People tend to do more when pushed rather then just running at there own pace. Saftey and security, Having 2 people running together are more likely to see you, I have a client i'm currently running with 3 mornings a week at 6:30, she lives in area that is fairly dark and issolated area, I know that she feels better having me out there to accompany her on the runs. The last advantage is that this is a appointment that you have to keep.
