The best exercise is one that you really want to do, be it push-ups, stretches, jumping jacks, Zumba or running. However, some people prefer to work out using fitness equipment in their own homes.
Here are some tips for buying exercise equipment.
Do not believe everything you are told, at least not everything
You should assess all those claims about exercise equipment that manufacturers make in their advertisements. Some of the statements are for example nigh on unbelievable when they guarantee that you will lose several pounds in as little as seven days or that your dress size will drecrease in a month. Even with the assistance of dietary supplements, it is not possible to accomplish changes as major as these in just a few weeks, much less days.
Spot burner lies
Always remain skeptical about claims that you will be able to burn a lot of fat in a very specific part of your body, such as the thighs or tummy by just applying ointment or lotion, etc, or using a particular piece of exercise equipment. The only sure way to burn fat way is by looking at your diet. And even then, you will burn fat all over rather than in just one place.
Testimonial untruths
Those before and after pictures of people who claim that they had lost weight thanks to a particular piece of equipment, lotion or diet are often lies. The manufacturer will take photos of people who have lost weight through sensible means and make wild claims to get you to part with your money. And if they did actually manage to do it using the equipment or pill being sold, there is definitely no guarantee that it will work for you.
Read the fine print
Always read the fine print. You might believe that the fitness equipment you are planning to purchase is going to help you achieve your goals but if you read the fine print it may say that you also have to decrease your calorie intake and cannot just rely on the machine!
Do the maths!
The adverts might state how the product can be purchased in a number of easy payments but they often omit the delivery/shipping costs plus any taxes or third-party handling fees.
Check the warranty details
The 30 day money back guarantee may sound amazing on paper but some companies require you to pay for the shipping costs and if the equipment weighs a lot, the shipping costs will be high meaning that it is not financially viable to bother sending the broken piece of equipment back.
Check customer service
Give them a call and make sure they are responsive should you have a problem that they need to rectify. Make sure it's a toll-free number in case they make you hold for ages.
