Treadmills are probably the most popular of all types of fitness
equipment. Premier Sports and Fitness have selected a great range of
treadmills for improved cardiovascular health, weight loss and muscle
tone. For most people, 20-30 minutes exercise three times a week is
beneficial for health and fitness, though this should be a minimum from
which to build from.
There are a number of factors to consider when choosing a treadmill. How
heavy are the users, how fast do you want to go, what are your goals?
Should you consider a treadmill with a heart rate control programme, to
make your training more efficient? Premier Sports and Fitness can advise
the consumer on which treadmill suits them best!
We also supply all accessories for treadmills such as mats, Polar heart
rate monitors and software. All the superb range of exercise equipment at
Premier Sports and Fitness is fully covered by manufacturers’ warranties
from a minimum of 12 months to lifetime.
Elliptical trainers are the fastest growing type of cardiovascular
exercise equipment. Elliptical cross trainers offer a low impact workout
that exercises muscle groups in both upper and lower body with minimum
strain on joints.
A smooth elliptical cross trainer is generally designed with a 3-1 ratio
of lower body to upper body resistance, matching the body's normal ratio
of upper to lower body muscle mass. Cross trainers enable you to work out
equally with all four limbs, valuable for longer fat burning workout
programmes.
The elliptical leg motion, coupled with arm resistance exercise, provides
a fitness workout that many find especially pleasing. Forward and reverse
action maximises the benefits of using an elliptical cross trainer.
Exercise Bikes for many people are the ideal cardiovascular exercise tool.
Exercise bikes are enjoyable for all ages, and on an exercise bike you can
easily keep fit without missing your favourite TV programme. Upright
exercise bikes are the most popular exercise equipment and are more
compact than most other exercise machines.
An exercise bike may also suit those with injuries preventing them from
running or walking. Recumbent bikes can be a good choice if you have
certain types of back problems while semi-recumbent exercise bikes make it
easier for users to dismount. Most exercise bikes have magnetic
resistance, which can give a superbly smooth and quiet ride. Air
resistance exercise bikes are less quiet and popular but have a feel some
people still prefer.
Multi gyms offer a huge variety of exercise options and can be used to
improve strength, build muscle and condition major muscle groups.
Multigyms provide a safe and effective alternative to free weights
exercises. They combine all the main functions of commercial resistance
machines, in a compact space saving design. They enable users to exercise
safely without the need of a training partner.
The majority of multigyms offer the same core exercises such as chest
press, pec deck, leg extension/curl, lat pull down and low pulley/seated
row.
Rowing machines are in a class of their own for a really intensive upper
and lower body workout. Serious training can be done with any quality
cardiovascular equipment, but rowing machines really lend themselves to>
the dedicated fitness enthusiast, particularly those who enjoy rowing!
Rowers have 3 main forms of resistance. Air rowers like the Johnson W7000
give an excellent smooth action and full length stroke. They come closest
to simulating the action of rowing on water. Magnetic rowing machines
give a smooth and variable resistance and are generally shorter which may
be a factor where space is limited, and you do not have much room for
exercise machines.
