Yes, because you have control over the amount of resistance and the exercises you do. The journey gymtm is truly a universal gym.
Anyone at any fitness level. With the option of 5 to 200 pounds of resistance at each resistsance point, the journey gym can provide a full workout for any age. Fitness buffs to beginners and everyone in between.
To ease into using the journey gym, it is best to choose 5 to 6 exercises that are suitable to your fitness level and goals and do a single set of each at 10 to 12 repetitions. You should start on a lower resistance and take the time to make sure your form is perfect before you increase resistance and repetitions. Also be sure to rest between exercises. As you improve, you can increase the intensity in a variety of ways: increase the resistance level, number of exercises, sets of each exercise and/or decrease the rest you take between each exercise and sets.
20 to 30 minutes of training 2 to 3 times a week is a great start. Doing even 10 minutes is much better than nothing at all so try to use the journey gym three times a week, even if only for a few minutes. You'll find that even in short sessions, you'll experience a lot of benefit. Find a schedule that fits your lifestyle and that you feel comfortable making a habit of. The journey gym can go wherever you go so it is a great tool in providing you a consistent workout wherever you may find yoursel
What if a resistance band breaks or I want different resistance levels than what the gym comes with?
The journey gym resistance bands are made with a custom polyurethane tubing that can withstand more usage and resistance than any resistance bands currently available. These bands will last. However, like all resistance bands, they will wear down over the years. In our catalog, we sell replacement bands. We also sell bands in an assortment of resistance levels so you can customize your gym to meet your needs.
