Let’s face it, gym memberships are expensive and they sneak in fees that drive the price up even more. Then there’s finding the motivation to travel back and forth between the gym, home, and work, adding more time onto you schedule when you barely had any to begin with. What’s a fitness-minded person to do? With a little investing and a bit of space, you could create your own home gym instead. A home gym offers privacy and convenience that is unparalleled.

Ditch the insecurity of people watching you working out and try some of the best home fitness equipment available on the market:

1. Bowflex

The Bowflex Home Gym is the ultimate space-saving home strength system. It is compact enough to store in almost any room in your home and is designed to perform resistance training exercises. This machine makes it easy for users to change resistance and exercises and is safe to use alone, unlike regular gym equipment that require a spotter to help out. It won’t offer cardiovascular benefits, but the Bowflex is a great addition to your resistance training equipment section of your new home gym.

We love the new Bowflex PR3000, which is optimized for over 50 strength training exercises, which ensures that you won’t get bored with your workouts.

2. Peloton

If cardio is more your jam, then be sure to check out the Peloton indoor bicycle with a cult-like following. This isn’t your ordinary stationary bike, this is a high-end indoor bike that comes equipped with a wi-fi enabled 22-inch touchscreen tablet that lets users stream live and on-demand classes. Are you the competitive type? This bike lets you compete with other participants to take your workout to the next level. Be warned, however, that it comes with a monthly membership fee that allows you to do the aforementioned competitive classes. Otherwise, you’re left with only three classes and a free-ride mode that can display real-time data on the screen with no record of your exercise achievements.

3. NordicTrack

It’s difficult to talk about home gym equipment without mentioning one of the most popular brands in the game: NordicTrack. The company started with a ski machine and now includes treadmills, stationary bikes, and elliptical machines. Each piece of equipment will come with its own defining features, but many of them include things like a one-year membership to iFit Coach, an autobreeze fan, speakers, touchscreens, EKG grips, and incline options. When it comes to quality and functionality, it’s hard to beat the classic NordicTrack line of home gym equipment.

We recommend the high-rated NordicTrack Commercial 1750 treadmill, which is one of their popular models. It comes equipped with iFit Coach app that gives runners, joggers, and walkers a virtual run around the globe from the comfort of your living room.

4. Nautilus

Nautilus is a brand that embodies healthy living and is easily one of the most recognizable names in cardio equipment. The company is known for their upright stationary bikes, recumbent bikes, treadmills, and ellipticals, covering all of your cardio needs. Their technologically advanced home gym equipment is durable and high quality. Each of their machines can monitor things like speed, heart rate, workout time, and distance travelled. We love that most of their machines come with Bluetooth Nautilus Connect, which can connect to the Nautilus Trainer app. This will upload your data to your MyFitnessPal account and keep all of your workout data in one place.

We love the Nautilus E618 Elliptical Trainer for its 25 levels of resistance that allows users to switch their intensity options, giving you the best cardio workout of your life.
