Home Gym
Rage for the Machine
Yes, free weights are important to any training routine, but never underestimate the benefits of machine work. Unfortunately, filling up a 12x12 garage space with single-use machines isn’t really an option for most of us.
Thankfully, we wrangled up a team of personal trainers and sought advice on picking the best home gym machines that will fit your needs and space requirements. The result is 11 options chosen for their practical use in an environment limited by square footage.
Multi-trainers and cable machines dominate the list. As awesome as having a heavy-duty leg press might be, it’s limited to, umm, leg pressing, and, as every home gym owner knows, you need to maximize your space’s modularity. There are also several budget options covering several price points. Home gyms are here to stay, and these machines will help keep you out of busy fitness centers for years to come.

Training Tips
Roast Your Tri-Tips
Triceps training is some of the most fun you can have in a cut-off T-shirt. With your arms waving in the breeze and your elbow extending, it feels like you can do just about anything.
Interjecting some structure into your triceps workout will make your horseshoe arm pump even greater and lead to more solid sleeveless gains. Read the advice below and follow these three triceps training rules to watch all of your long medial and lateral dreams come true.
This isn’t going to be a list of exercises – instead, it’s a series of guidelines to help you understand your own exercise selection and programming. The concepts are simple to understand, and if everyone just did everything they were supposed to, 20-inch arms would be the norm (if only…). If you have a strong desire to bust out the sleeves of every shirt you ever buy again, this guide is going to be your go-to fashion accessory.
2024 Olympics
Spinning Your New Forty-Fives
Olympics Weightlifting is both a competition between qualified athletes sharing a platform and a historical battle against world records set by lifters of yesteryear.
Your enjoyment of the upcoming Olympic Games can be heightened by understanding the (sometimes sordid) history of the Olympic lifts, totals, and what feats of human achievement modern-day athletes are hoping to topple.
Serious lifters will sometimes roll their eyes at what casual viewers think is “a lot of weight.” Getting into the weeds a little bit and understanding the top-end ranges of high-level performers will help you appreciate just how much weight they can sling around, and, hopefully, provide a base of knowledge to grow the sport moving forward.
