Looking to build your own home gym? Whether you're looking to save money on gym memberships or just want the convenience of working out at home, having the right flooring can make all the difference. Not only does it protect your subfloor from damage caused by heavy equipment, but it also provides a comfortable and safe surface for exercising. In this article, we'll discuss some of the best solutions for your home gym flooring.
One of the most important factors to consider when choosing home gym flooring is your fitness regime, which will dictate the type of flooring solution you will need. Plenty of options are available, including interlocking rubber floor mats, rubber flooring rolls and home gym tiles. Each of them comes with their own pros and cons, and it’s important to analyze your needs first before making a purchase decision.
For example, if you plan on doing heavy weight training or using barbells and kettlebells, you'll want to choose a heavy-duty option that can withstand the impact. On the other hand, if you are mostly doing yoga, Pilates or other similar exercises, you'll want a surface that's comfortable to roll around on and can accommodate the movement.
Here are some solutions you can consider while installing or renovating a home gym.
