Using the right exercise equipment and techniques, you can create a fitness space right at home.

Ms. Shazia Shadab, physiotherapist at Cloudnine Group of Hospitals, Bengaluru (India), shares some essential exercise equipment and injury prevention measures for those starting their fitness journey at home.

Essential Home Gym Equipment

Yoga Mat: Suitable for yoga, stretching and core exercises. You should choose a non-slip mat with cushion for comfort and stability.

Resistance Bands: Suitable for strength training and rehabilitation exercises.

Choose a set of equipment that has different levels of resistance so you can adjust as your fitness improves.

Dumbbells: Strengthen muscles and the whole body. Beginners can practice with dumbbells from 2-5kg and gradually increase.

Stability Ball: Helps improve core strength, balance, and flexibility. Stability balls are also useful for sit-ups, planks, and stretches.

Yoga Foam Roller: Aids in muscle recovery and reduces stiffness after exercise. Start with a medium-density foam roller for comfort.

Jump Rope: An affordable yet great cardiovascular tool. Adjust the rope to your height for more effective use.

Pull-up bar: Helps you focus on upper body and core strength. Make sure that the pull-up bar is securely mounted to avoid any accidents.

Safety precautions

Watch technical instructions before practicing: Watch instructional videos on the internet from reputable sources.

Safe space: Set aside a clean workout area that is large enough to avoid accidents.

Start Slowly: Start with lighter weights and shorter workouts to build strength safely. Once your body and muscles have adjusted to this intensity, you can increase the amount of exercise you do.

Wear proper footwear: Use supportive shoes to avoid slipping and reduce pressure on your feet.

Note

Physiotherapist Shadab recommends focusing on low-impact activities like pelvic tilts, bodyweight squats, and gradual stretching.

For the elderly, priority should be given to light resistance training, balance exercises and gentle stretching to maintain mobility and strength.
