Home Gym Workout Station For $600
COVID has really changed the way that we work and the way that we do or do not exercise so here is a way to create a Home Gym Workout Station For $600 – right in your home office.
Gyms have been closed and those that have opened are doing so at less than full capacity. Also, gym membership fees and getting to the gym are often factors that prevent some from working out. With a little creativity, the right equipment, you can create the perfect gym right in your office. There are really very few pieces of equipment you will need to get a complete workout, with no commute and at anytime during the day (even 10-15 minute breaks throughout the workday. And, the equipment you really need is very affordable and can be stored in about a 4′ * 4′ corner. Below is a list of the equipment I personally use.

The back extension machine or Roman chair is used for an isolation exercise that targets the lower-back muscles, mostly the erector spinae. You lock your heels under a pad or roller, with another pad to support your lower body as you recline face-down. This facilitates flexing at the waist.
The exercise requires that you bend at the waist, and a little at the hips, lowering the torso until approximately upper and lower body form a right angle. The extension is usually performed as a bodyweight exercise, using only the upper body for the load. The use of the back extension machine is controversial as poor technique can result in an injury. It can be part of a strengthening program.
Sissy squats are the best bodyweight exercise to train your abs, thighs and glutes. Sissy squats build muscle, strength, balance, durability and flexibility.
Sissy squats work a variety of muscles, but none get more attention than the quadriceps. Accordingly, this exercise helps to balance your anterior and posterior chain muscles. The sissy squat machine helps to create an isolated environment where you can work the large muscles at the front of the thigh without overexerting your knees.
