Step 1
Determination of the goal If you decide to purchase a home trainer, the first thing you should do is to determine what you need a trainer for: to prevent hypodynamia, to build a muscle corset or to lose weight. Of course, there are universal multifunctional simulators, but a clear definition of training goals will allow you to purchase a model that is optimal for you and at the same time you will not have to overpay for unnecessary functions.
Step 2
Raising Your Awareness Before you go for a specific model of simulator, it is advisable to study various reviews and reviews of similar simulators. This will allow you to more accurately determine what features you need. For example, if you are in the mood for cardio-stimulating activities, the simulator should be equipped with a convenient heart rate monitor, as well as flexible adjustment of the load. If you set out to lose weight with the help of a home trainer, pay attention to models of trainers with a large flywheel weight. By studying the reviews and descriptions, you will be better able to understand these subtleties and find out exactly what questions to ask the seller.

We purchase a simulator. Having decided what kind of simulator you need, you can go to the store. • After choosing a model, be sure to specify the maximum user weight for this or that model. Assess the reliability and stability of the assembled structure.
• Read the attached instructions. Pay attention to the material from which the main frame of the simulator is made - a steel frame should be the basis of professional and semi-professional simulators. If you buy an electric trainer, pay attention to the motor power.
• Test the selected model - check how softly and smoothly the moving parts of the simulator move. Ideally, it is advisable to work out on the simulator for a few minutes - this will allow you to fully appreciate both the load and the comfort.
Do not forget about the warranty card - the seller is obliged to give it to you along with instructions and a receipt.
