After the first year it is estimated that 80% of home exercise equipment is not used. It is understandable with the gym closures due to Covid-19 and our mandated home quarantine orders that many people are eager to have a home gym.  Not trying to curb your workout enthusiasm, but regarding a home gym do the following apply? — You promised yourself that this time you are really going to use it; Despite your dusty collection of different exercise devices you are convinced that with this new contraption you will definitely reach your fitness goals; or, you repeatedly tell yourself … “If I only had that fitness machine I would be motivated to work out”.

Don’t part with your hard-earned money before you make sure you will be one of the 20% that buys home exercise equipment and actually uses it.  Because as we all know… you are only going to get the physical benefits from your home exercise equipment if you actually do the exercise.

We are all guilty of exaggerating our fitness endeavors, but it is actually the exercise beginners that are most likely to purchase home exercise equipment and then not use it.  As a matter of fact… beginner exercisers don’t use 2/3 of the home exercise equipment they buy.

Here’s why.  Consistent use of home exercise equipment requires the use of self control, and most people overestimate their self control. Even though they exhibit determination and enthusiasm when researching and purchasing the home exercise equipment to buy, most people just do not have enough self-control to consistently and regularly use the equipment.  Hate to accentuate the obvious, but thinking, talking, researching, and buying home exercise equipment IS NOT EXERCISE.

We are all aware that the costs of seeking fitness are immediate while the benefits are delayed, causing many home exercisers, especially beginners, to get frustrated putting in the time and energy necessary to reap the long term physical rewards gained from using the home exercise equipment.  I know, it’s a no-brainer, and an explanation needed for the home exercise equipment strewn in garages, closets and basements with the closing comments… “That thing didn’t work.”

If you have recently taken a good hard look in the mirror and did not like what you saw, or have assessed your physical abilities and found them lacking, then it’s time to get real about buying home exercise equipment.  Remember, fitness is a journey, not a destination. The bodily changes and improvement of physical abilities you seek can only be obtained for the long term by incorporating consistent physical activity into your lifestyle.
