York Barbell History in Strength Training

The York Barbell name is synonymous with the essence of weightlifting since its inception. York Barbell Company and its legendary Olympic weightlifting team, The York Barbell Club, wrote a substantial chapter in the biography of weightlifting, equipment development, and nutritional supplement industry. This is why they’re equipped to educate someone on how to set up their home gym for strength training…

 York Barbell’s background and experience is invaluable, especially in ever changing times like these. Today, we’re informing you on the best strength training equipment for your at home gym so one can continue to stay strong, even during the toughest of times. 

How to Set Up Your Home Gym for Strength Training

Why go through the effort of setting up your home gym? First, it will save you time and money. You won’t have to waste gas or your time driving to the gym and possibly getting

stuck in traffic. In addition, you won’t have to pay for a gym membership- which, for most of us, would be useful right now.

 

To start, find the right space. You will need enough room to perform essential workouts and exercises. 

 

You will also need these as starters for your best home gym:

  • A jump rope
  • A kettlebell
  • A pull up bar
  • A mat
  • Dumbbells
  • A workout bench
  • Resistance Bands

Additional Equipment to Enhance Your Workouts: 

  • Seated Curl Bench
  • Power Bars
  • Spin Lock Curl Bar
  • 300 Slant Board
  • Squat Machine/Racks
  • Bench Press Machine/Racks

You will also need recovery tools such as foam rollers. You’ll also want to plan out a way to store your accessories/weights and keep it organized to maximize the space.

For larger spaces you can upgrade to weight plates, barbells, collar clips, and racks. As well as a landmine connecting to your rack. For smaller spaces, you can put a landmine in a corner of a room, if applicable.
