New Addition: Kettlebell

Hi Guys,

Sorry for the lack of posts these few months!

We got another new piece of equipment for our home gym. Yes, a kettlebell!
A kettlebell may not be a piece of equipment that you will often see in a commercial gym, but it is certainly a great addition to our home gym.

There are many types of kettlebells in the market. The various types of kettlebells includes, Pro-Grade Kettlebells, Standard Kettlebells, Weight Adjustable Kettlebells and others.

From the picture above, the one that we got are the Standard Rubberised Kettlebell. In the next post, we will be writing in details on the different types of kettlebell and what each of them looks like and what is the differences between them. For this post, we will be talking abt the Standard Rubberised Kettlebell.

From the picture above, the Standard Rubberised Kettlebell has a handle covered in chrome, and the main weight of the kettlebell covered in rubber coating. The reason why we choose this instead of the pro-grade kettlebell is simply because we prefer our kettlebell to be in rubber coating so as to have a standardised balck coloured theme for our home gym equipments.

So why did we add a kettlebell to our home gym?
Reason being, we wanted to have a piece of equipment that we can perform some basic full body weight lifting after a run. We wanted to have a "Simple" crossfit style workout on one of the days of the week. We will first go for a run, then continue with kettlebell lifts and a boxing session, this will sum up our cardio day.

A basic kettlebell lift will be working our more than one muscle group at a time. In our future posts, we will also be writing on the different lifts that you can perform with a kettlebell.

After introducing all our new equipments, we will be writing on how to choose a particular equipment, what exercises can you perform with the equipment and a review of the equipment that we have in our home gym.

That being say, we still have new equipment that our home gym have added. Can you guess what is the new piece of equipment that we will be introducing?

New Addition: The Fat Gripz

Hi guys,

We are so sorry for the lack of posts recently.

We are back with new post today!

The new addition that we have for our home gym is the Fat Gripz!

The Fat Gripz may not be an entirely "new" addition to our home gym, or rather to any gym out there. Why do we say so?

The Fat Gripz is'nt exactly a new kind of equipment or machine that allows you to train differently, it is an addition to the existing equipments that gymers have been using all these while, the barbell, dumbell and any equipments.

The fat gripz can be attached to any barbells or dumbells or any handles for use. The basic use of the fat gripz is to allow you to train like you are using a fat bar, without having to purchase a new fat bar for use. 

A complete review of the fat gripz will be posted in future posts. (We need to use them for some time before we can give it a review based on our experiences with it)

So stay tune for our new series of posts for our blog!

The new series will be posted after we are one with introduing the ever increasing range of our home gym equipments.

New Addition: A different workout equipment, The Gym Rings

Having a Power Rack, weights set, weight bench, all the weights lifting equipments, how about trying out bodyweight exercises?

A new addition to our home gym is a pair of Gym Rings.

There are different types and quality of gym rings available in the market, in our future posts, we will be talking about them.

We got a pair of gym rings with adjustable straps. Many of you may wonder, now I have a pair of gym rings, but where do I hang them to use it?

The common places to hang them for use would be on a pull up bar. However, if you do not have a pull up bar at home, where can you hang them?

For us, before we bought the gym rings, we already have an answer to that question. We will be hanging them on the Power Rack that we got. We want to integrate the use of the gym rings into our home gym, which saves us the time wastage having having to go to the neighborhood park to use the gym rings.

Hang the Gym Rings on the Power Rack and it's all ready for use. Stay tune for our future posts where we would be writing on the different exercises you can do with the Gym Rings.

New Addition: Air Purifier

Hi guys,

We have been busy for the past few weeks.....

Since the hot topic now is the Haze issue, we decide to write a post on a piece of "machine" that perhaps was one of the top selling items during this period, the Air Purifier....

Nope, our Air Purifier was'nt the most expensive one.

We got the above Air Purifier way before the Haze period, and it's original intention wasn't to clean the "hazy" air. It cost around $25 and a bottle of essential oil cost around $9 to $15. There are many different types of essential oil available and each has its own functions. Add a few drops of essential oil into the water in the Air Purifier and soon your room will be filled with the beautiful smell.

And as you may have guessed it, we got the Air Purifier to prevent our Home Gym from getting soak in the Sweaty smell. A home gym is often not as ventilated as a commercial gym, and very often there's only a fan or Air con in the Home Gym. As time  goes by, the home gym may have this sweaty smell. A Air Purifier will therefore helps to reduce this sweaty smell and gives out beautiful aroma.....

On top of that, some essential oil helps one to relax, ensuring you a good sleep and rest during the night.

A short post for today, stay tune to our blog to find out what other new additions we got for our Home Gym.

Remember to wear your N95 Masks when you are out.
