16 GoodLifeFamilyMag.com JULY AUGUST 2015 goodLIVING TREND 2 HOME GYMS PROMOTE HEALTHY LIVING The home-improvement industry recognizes that its fiscal fitness may be based on its clients physical fitness and a workout room could also mean the difference in the value of your home. According to the National Association of Home Builders one-third of new and potential home buyers list a home gym as essential or desirable. With that trend more and more people are adding fitness equipment or dedicating rooms for fitness in their homes. Dont know where to start Look no further than Craig Lewin vice president of Fitcorp USA which owns 12 Busy Body and Fitness HQ stores throughout the DFW Metroplex. Lewin says customers are turn- ing to home gyms so they can work out as a family and for the conve- nience of not having to leave home to get in a workout. The experts at Busy Body and Fitness HQ will work with you to custom tailor a home gym to fit your fitness goals and budget and that will fit within the space available in your home. Lewin says one of his most popular pieces of equipment is The Hoist MI7 a corner unit multi-functional training system that doesnt take up much space. It can help with all levels of strengthening muscles such as chest press- es working on the backbicepstriceps pull-ups squats and more. Its great because you can even put it in a 10-by-10 room says Lewin. Lewin is a huge fan of the Power Plate a 3-by-3 foot vibration trainer. The vibration trainer works on the lymphatic system including muscle strengthening pulse and blood circulation. For cardio Lewin recommends an elliptical trainer. He says the ellip- tical trainer provides the benefits of running or walking on a treadmill without the impact. For those hoping to streamline their costs Lewin points to a bench or stability ball with PowerBlocks which are adjust- able dumbbells. These take up no space at all he says. Theyre literally 1.5-by-1.5 feet and replace 16 pairs of dumbbells or 825 pounds of your old free weights.
