The Chuck Norris Home Gym is a popular piece of fitness equipment. It is widely advertised on TV but is it the right piece of equipment to help you achieve your fitness goals?

The Total Gym from Chuck Norris is essentially an exercise bench that you can perform a multitude of exercises on. Thanks to the pulley system you can use your own body weight to work out your arms and your legs. You can also perform abdominal exercises as well.

Many people that have used the Chuck Norris home gym absolutely love it. It does not take up much room and you can even fold it away after use. You don't have weights or dumbbells lying around so it is quite compact.

Unlike a traditional free weights home gym, this is a piece of equipment that is popular with both men and women. This means that it is great to use at home because all of the family can use it.

There are some limitations to using the Chuck Norris home gym. Whilst working against your own body weight is great for upper body strength, some people will feel the need for more resistance when working out their lower body. If you are a serious body builder you may want to use free weights.

But many people are willing to overlook these shortcomings considering everything that you get for the money. The average person that wants to get fit will find that it is ideal. Compared to travelling to a healthclub you will save yourself a small fortune by having one of these units at home.

In all, it is a good piece of equipment that will satisfy all but the top level of athlete. If you want to combine an aerobics workout with building muscle strength, the Chuck Norris home gym should be given serious consideration.
