The Best Crossfit Equipment For Home

By Tamika Powell


Probably one of the biggest trends in the world of fitness is the cross fit training which started sometime in 2000. To give readers an idea, it is a series of short exercises that are heavy in intensity and takes a lot of energy and stamina to do. One may actually do this routine in his own house provided that he has some of the basic crossfit equipment for home.

Basically, this whole program consists of short routines that one will do for only a short period of time. Each routine would last for a maximum of twenty minutes but could be less. This includes a series of workouts like lifting, aerobics, cardio exercises, and more. Every day of a week would consist of a different routine so that the whole week is complete.

The weightlifting bar is probably the most basic and most essential tool of them all. One must buy a sturdy bar so that he can lift it in quick motions so that he can be able to strengthen his body quickly. Always remember to never buy a weightlifting bar that actually bends.

It is also very important for one to have a pull up system. This means that he should have a pull up bar like they have in gyms. If one cannot afford the ones in the store, he may just be resourceful and hook up a few sturdy pipes that may build up a little pull up system.

When doing squats, many people complain that they always develop a bad case of cramps or leg aches. For this purpose, the squat stand was invented so that people who do the cross fit program can do squats much quicker. Also, they will be able to prevent any instances of leg aches, cramps, or any type of pain that will hinder the exercise.

Kettle bells are also used very much in this program because of its effectiveness. Basically, one just has to lift it up and drop it down and doing that will be able to strengthen the whole body. However, do take note that it works more on the upper body like the arms, shoulders and the chest.

The medicine ball is definitely a must in the list. For those who do not know, it is a very heavy ball that was used originally in sports medicine for those who are undergoing therapy after an injury. Nowadays, athletes use these balls so that they can gain a lot of intensity and strength that will allow them to perform at their utmost potential.

So basically, those are some of the best and widely used crossfit equipment for home. As long as one has these basic tools, then he may already start his venture into cross fit training. However, he should always remember to listen to his body and never push his body too much otherwise it will collapse
