5. Types of equipments

Some types of fitness equipment available for use can be classified according to the type of exercise for which we build them. The first class to be discussed is the strength training equipment. These include free weights and machines referred to as the resistance machines.

Another type of equipment belonging to the strength training equipment is the bands and tubing, which are lightweight options for training at home and in the office. The other class is the aerobic fitness equipment, which is mainly the endless-path machines.

These include devices such as the stationary bicycles, the treadmills, the elliptical trainers, aerobic riders, the stair climbers, the ski and rowing machines. The stationary bicycle focuses the exercise on the legs by the action of pedaling. The treadmills are an all body exercise as you may walk or run at various speeds. There are also some models that can simulate slopes for a more intense workout.
