Best Gymnastics Equipment for Home Use

COVID-19 has changed the way a lot of us train since the closure of gyms, cheer stadiums and gymnastics clubs.

The global pandemic left a lot of people panic buying different types of equipment and tools so that they could work out at home. Due to the massive demand for these products, many major sporting supply companies have found an increased demand for equipment that can be used in the comfort of a person’s home.

One year on, and while most people have returned to gyms and clubs, others have been taking the advantage of their gear bought throughout isolation and continuing to use it.

The Gym Spot looks at the best equipment for home use.

 

Crash and Folding Mats

Perfect for all floor routines and allow a soft landing for complex manoeuvres. These mats can also be packed away and stored in between uses.

 

Balance Beams

Available in many sizes, lengths and heights, balance beams allow a gymnast to practise various skills like handstands, walkovers, cartwheel and various types of jumps. Most beams also come with adjustable feet, making them easy to change in various heights depending on skill level.
