Those keen to get in shape for summer are continuing to flock online to stock up on home gym equipment and a leading e-retailer has the figures to prove it.
UsedGymEquipment.co.uk sells a vast array of home gym equipment online at competitive prices and has experienced record sales during the last few months of lockdown.
Prompted by the continued closure of gyms and group fitness classes, exercise enthusiasts are investing in fitness equipment that they can use in the comfort of their own home or garden.
The evolution of home fitness since the UK was plunged into a full lockdown has been transformative, with those that usually get their fitness kick on the gym floor making the switch to sweating it out during home workouts. Statistics have revealed that since gyms closed, 70% of regular exercisers have purchased some form of home gym equipment, enabling them to sweat it out at home.
Used Gym Equipment sells superior gym machinery from industry-leading brands including Body Sculpture and TechnoGym. More than just an online shopping site though, the popular website is also a valuable destination for those that are unsure about the process of purchasing different forms of
second-hand gym equipment.
