Find out more information by watching me talk about it HERE ON YOUTUBE.

Then, once you’re done with the video (or when you’ve heard enough). you can ENTER HERE and be a total hero for cats!

Buying Exercise Equipment for Home (During Quarantine)

We’ve been getting tons of questions about this lately. People who work out every day at the gym are stuck at home without equipment and don’t want to lose their progress. With no end in sight for the quarantine, especially in order to combat poor eating habits at home, people are trying to put together home gyms in order to maintain their progress, or prevent gaining fat/losing muscle mass. There are a few challenges though…

  1. They don’t know what equipment to buy.
  2. They don’t know what brand/model to buy.
  3. They don’t know where to buy it. 
  4. Many companies are backordered.
  5. Local markets (Facebook Marketplace, Offer Up, Let Go, Craigslist) are all home to price gouging. 

This video on YouTube will help you with some recommendations/tips for cardio equipment at home. To summarize part of it, look for less commercial pieces that don’t have a ton of moving parts or electronic components, such as a Schwinn Airdyne or Indoor Cycling Bike, such as the ones we have (below) in our home gym.

How Bitcoin has Revolutionized the Fitness Industry

Have you ever thought how Bitcoins can actually transform the fitness industry? It seems strange that this technology could change the way the fitness world runs. Blockchain is the underlying technology for Bitcoins and many other crypto coins. The idea behind the blockchain was to combine security and privacy in transactions. So, the blockchain is really a public ledger written in ink that cannot be erased. Every data in the blockchain is a block that is verified by users, and this data need not only be economic in nature; it could be data on music, videos, or any other information.

No surprises then why the blockchain technology is being hailed as a disruptive technology with potential to penetrate almost every industry. Startups are looking at new ways to create applications using this technology. Blockchain has now successfully made its foray into the world of healthcare, medicine, supply chain, food and beverage, and even fitness. Blockchain has also ventured into autonomous trading to deliver effective trading to the investors; read this bitcoin evolution review for more details about autonomous bitcoin trading. But one may wonder what running or working out in the gym could have to do with this technology.
