No one questions dumbbells, barbells, bands and battle ropes being at the gym, but that lone tractor tyre? Seems like an odd waste of space. In truth, it can be used for unique and extremely challenging workouts. This video shows you a bunch you can do with that tyre for a total-body workout.
Imagine yourself slamming, swinging around, pulling and moving a hefty, supersized rope, and then feeling like your arms, lungs and body are on fire, after less than a minute. Battle ropes are just as badarse as they sound, and they're a novel and challenging twist to your regular fitness routine.
If you live in a small space, you may think your at-home exercise options are limited to no-equipment, mostly bodyweight workouts. However, a suspension system or a couple of dumbbells can open the door to a ton of new exercises without taking up a ton of space or stretching your student budget.
If you're interested in buying gym equipment for your home, the options are daunting: Should you get the dumbbell set, a jump rope, a pull-up bar or just one highly versatile piece of equipment? The answer is simple: Think about your current workout, and your goals.
