Did you catch the key part of that quote? "I hurt myself."
Don't fall prey to fitness popaganda. Can you hurt yourself weight training? Of course. Can you hurt yourself using an automobile?
Interesting.
I guess we assume a certain amount of responsibility when we get behind the wheel? Just be responsible and honest with yourself about what your capabilities are. (Don't try to do more than you're able to control.)
Accept that weight training is a skill, you have to start somewhere, and you can't make up for years of neglect by trying to do too much too soon.
And most of all, don't mistake safety, for not having to do anything.
I have written a separate page on
why practical weight training is better than machines.
I highly recommend it for anyone who may considering buying a home gym.
For those of you that feel training at home is more practical, I'm going to show you how to set your home gym up as a practical weight training center. This will be simple, functional and effective.
It will take up more space than the number 2 and 3 exercise equipment choices, but it's also more effective.
Don't let the names of any of these pieces intimidate you. I assure you this equipment is useful for everyone.
Here's your shopping list.
Believe it or not that's it! That's all you need to be completely "free weight functional".
Naturally there are other things you could buy to increase functionality, but with what's listed above you don't need them.
If you combine that with one or two pieces of cardio and a dumbell set, (or power blocks) then you'll have all you will ever need. Of course if you add more, results may be faster or easier, but this system will out do any multi gym out there.
Other things I recommend you add: (If your budget allows)
Now you're talking! That's a fat bustin', muscle buildin', time bomb waitin' to explode!
I'm getting fired up just thinkin' about it!
Practical weight training is the most effective tool in the fitness arsenal.

Not just for wall pounders any more.
