Lockdown Life Training Tips Elaborated - Get Some New Kit

Investing in some new equipment can add variety to your training and open up the opportunity to include different exercises and training structures.

Even the simple addition of a set of heavier dumbbells or a kettlebell might open up all sorts of exercises you were unable to do before.

This variety might be just the thing to freshen things up for you mentally and help give you a boost in motivation!

It's not easy but it can be done

The market for training equipment has gone a bit wild since lockdown first began back in March 2020 and it can prove quite challenging to get your hands on equipment.

However, it can be done if you know where to look and keep a close eye on things!

Check out these companies

They seem to restock the quickest of all the equipment suppliers out there and some allow you to setup alerts so that you can be notified as soon as the new stock you are interested in becomes available (a very valuable feature these days given how quickly things can sell out).

🔹Rogue (www.rogueeurope.eu)

🔹Mirafit (www.mirafit.co.uk)

🔹Strength Shop (www.strengthshop.co.uk)

Other good options are available, these are just examples of companies we have personal experience with and trust due to their good supply of products, high quality of products and good levels of customer service.

It's an investment not just for lockdown

Owning a certain amount of equipment may prove handy even after lockdown has ended and the gyms have reopened. For example, you may find that there are times when you can't make it to the gym because you are particularly busy and having some equipment at home might prove the difference between getting some training in or not.

Given the way the world is at the moment we can't fully rule out a future return to some sort of lockdown, so in our opinion it's always handy to have some training equipment at home if you can.
