4 Examples of Alternative Fitness Equipment
If you try to increase muscle, strength, or conditioning, and you all you use is mainstream weightlifting using set routines day in and day out, you could be setting yourself up for failure in several ways! Do you find yourself scratching your head?
Here are three potential ways in which weightlifting can lead to failure:
- plateauing – in strength, conditioning, assistance muscles, tendons, and ligaments
- boredom – lifting day-in and day-out without variation
- injuries – from max effort with free weights and repetitive paths
I want to introduce you to traditional weightlifting’s cousins in just a moment. Before I introduce them, I will assure you they are all very viable means to fully developing muscle and also to help you to tone your body by accelerating fats loss as well as giving you a variety of choices to complement your weightlifting program. Without further ado, the cousins to weightlifting are kettlebells, resistance bands, the stability ball, and last but not least, homemade exercise equipment.
