Cardiovascular Equipment

While strength training is often the focus of a home gym, cardiovascular work not only improves overall health and fitness but also contributes to a primary goal of strength training: muscle definition. That's because a cardiovascular program, along with proper diet, is a great way to reduce fat.

A wide range of equipment offers cardiovascular exercise: ellipticals, exercise bikes, gliders, rowers, ski machines, stair machines & steppers, trampolines and treadmills. While lower body work is essential to an effective cardiovascular workout, ellipticals, upright gliders and rowers offer the added benefit of involving the upper body.
