Strength training & muscle building

Anyone looking to build muscle specifically needs a solid foundation. Weight benches with multi-adjustable backrests allow exercises such as bench press, shoulder press and ab exercises at various angles. Strength stations offer compact all-in-one training for the entire body. Dumbbells, barbells and kettlebells complement the setup and are available in various weight options. Modular systems are particularly popular, as they can be expanded step by step and grow with your training progress.

Frequently asked questions

Which training equipment is suitable for working out at home?▾

Depending on space and goals, different equipment is suitable for working out at home: rowing machines, cross trainers and exercise bikes offer low-impact full-body training, while weight benches, dumbbells and strength stations enable targeted muscle building. Many models can be stored compactly or folded away.

What is the difference between a cross trainer and an elliptical trainer?▾

Cross trainer and elliptical trainer are often used synonymously. Technically, they differ in flywheel mass and design: elliptical trainers usually have a flatter elliptical movement, cross trainers a steeper one. Both train endurance, legs and upper body equally and are ideal for low-impact cardio training.

Which training equipment helps with weight loss?▾

For effective weight reduction, endurance equipment such as treadmills, rowing machines, cross trainers and exercise bikes are particularly suitable. They burn calories, promote cardiovascular health and can be easily combined with interval training. Combined with strength equipment, the basal metabolic rate can also be increased.

How do I find the right treadmill for my needs?▾

Important criteria when buying a treadmill are motor power, running surface, cushioning, maximum user weight and foldable designs for small rooms. If you mainly want to walk, a compact model is sufficient; for ambitious runners, a more powerful machine with a wider running surface is recommended.

Which training equipment is space-saving and suitable for small apartments?▾

Foldable treadmills, folding weight benches, compact rowing machines and dumbbell sets with stands are ideal for apartments with limited space. Many models can be easily stored under the bed or behind a door after training while still providing an effective workout.

What should I consider when buying a weight bench?▾

A stable construction, sufficient load capacity, adjustable backrests for various exercises and comfortable padding are important. Weight benches with multiple incline angles and an optional leg trainer attachment are ideal for versatile strength training.

Are rowing machines suitable for beginners?▾

Yes, rowing machines are excellent for beginners. They train around 85 percent of the entire musculature, are low-impact and allow an individually adjusted pace. Models with adjustable resistance and training computers help to gradually increase intensity.

Which training equipment helps with back pain?▾

Rowing machines and cross trainers are particularly suitable as they gently strengthen the back muscles. Special back hyperextension benches and equipment for targeted core training can also help strengthen supporting muscles and prevent discomfort. In case of acute pain, medical advice should be sought before starting training.
