Whether they have a few feet to spare in the guest room, a yoga studio, a meditation space or an entire basement devoted to exercise, homeowners are seeing the advantages of exercising at home. Encouraging fitness at home doesn’t require expensive gym equipment or machines. Sometimes an exercise mat, a music player and some space at the foot of the bed will do the trick. For those with little room to spare, setting up exercise equipment near a window with a view or putting up mirrors on the wall have made a small room feel less cramped. Others have home gyms equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, sound systems, soundproof walls, cork floors and even a lap pool and a changing area. Whatever your budget or space requirements, fitness and a home gym can be possible.
