Home Gym Equipment for a Full Body Workout

When deciding what equipment to include in your home gym setup, various factors make it difficult to start—the amount of equipment needed, time to complete each exercise, and ensuring that you are using your whole body.  

Finding the best home workout equipment is only harder when considering all these questions. That’s why we have compiled a list of 4 kinds of home fitness equipment from Southern Cross Fitness that use your whole body. And we have even included examples of the best home gym equipment Australia has to offer — cutting down on the ambiguity and making it simple!  

1. Rower

Rowing is a great, simple exercise that improves your stamina and overall fitness. Using a rower is a great way of giving you a leg workout at home while simultaneously exerting energy from your upper body.  

The ARROW Commercial Air Rower R900A uses air and resistance training to give you a full-body workout, all in the comfort of your home. It has an LCD that helps you keep track of your progress with options to monitor your stroke, distance, time, calories and speed.  

2. Exercise bike

Using an exercise bike helps to strength train your legs and lower body, all while improving your cardiovascular fitness—this can be beneficial as a mindless task and help take some time out of your day not to focus on work or other responsibilities.  

The ARROW A800 Commercial Airdyne Air Exercise Bike is a great exercise bike option when looking for fitness equipment that provides a full-body workout. Its moving handles allow you to simultaneously exert force from your legs and arms. This home gym equipment is durable, comfortable, challenging, and a great option when looking for a low-impact workout.  

3. Weights

Using weights is a versatile way to build strength and fitness. They allow you to perform a variety of workouts that can target all aspects of your body. When focussed on your arms, they are a great way to get a chest workout at home, but you can also use them to build muscle in your legs depending on the workout routine you are following. 

The Adjustable Standard Dumbbell Set is great when looking for a versatile piece of home gym equipment. You can build the weight up to 20kg, meaning you can use them for traditional weight training or aid in completing a HIIT workout at home by lessening the weight load. 

4. Yoga Mat

An effective home workout does not always involve huffing and puffing—sometimes, it can be about control, and that is when it is great to have a yoga mat handy. Now, including a yoga mat in your home gym may seem odd, but we can assure you it is worth it! The mat provides a (much-needed) barrier of cushioning between you and the floor when completing your home fitness routine. 

The ARROW PU Series Yoga Mat is a great option as it is made from an eco-friendly, anti-slip material. This technology allows you to scale the intensity of your workouts; you can choose to perform low-impact, mobility-focused movements or go all-out in a HIIT workout. 

Home gym setups can be hard. Whether you are just starting or deciding on what fitness equipment to add next, these four pieces of equipment are great options to consider. They can be used independently for a full-body workout or combined to get more variety in your workout when wanting to add to your existing collection to perform fitness at home.
