Before you buy anything, keep this in mind: Starting with something you've never tried before makes it harder to succeed!
First you need to ask yourself three important questions:
1. How much space do I have?
2. What do I enjoy doing?
Space:
Is there room in your house/ apartment to can be used fo a home gym?
if so, what do you plan to put in it? do you want to have a flat-screen TV and a atereo system to get that "Gym" feeling at home or do you plan to get some dumbbells and an exercise ball and be dome with it. and it brings me to the next question;
What do I enjoy doing:
Professional fitness centres or gyms are fully equipped to meet the needs of a variety of people, you, on the other hend, have the abilty to equip your home gym with only the equipment and Instrumentation you want and need. for example: Fitness bike, if you don't plan to use one or if you own a bicycle and use them on a daily basis, you have no need for fitness bike in your home gym, since you probably will not use them and it will be considered as a bad investment. the more you like something, the more often you'll do it and the harder you'll work Which brings me to the most important question:
Budget:
How much money you plan to spend on a home gym? do you think that the result justifies the expense.
see how much money you spend in a year for your gym membership, multiply by three (since three years are the minimum time before your home gym will need maintenance) if the total amount is something you can afford - go for it!
Once you answer these three questions, you can go ahead and start to equip your home gym room
Make sure to compare prices of different suppliers and you can look for second hand equipment since professional instrumentation is very expensive and fitness centres and gyms always upgrade the equipment and most of the time Sell the old equipment at a discount.
