There are proper ways to exercise on home gyms. Before actually using a piece of equipment you may want to do some stretches. Some easy stretches are the hamstring stretch, touching your toes and bending from side to side. A good measure of how long to hold a stretch is to count to fifteen. You should also exhale as you move into your stretch and inhale as you release. Be sure to do a few sets of each.
When using a piece of equipment with weights on it you can easily do damage to yourself by spraining or tearing a muscle or simply crunching a finger that's inadvertently placed. Be sure to pay attention to where your body parts are at all times when using a piece of home gyms equipment. Also start off on the light set when using weights. If you think you can lift thirty pounds try starting with fifteen pounds and work your way up from there. This will reduce your risk of injury and sprains.
Also you should pay attention to make sure your body is in the proper position to make most effective use of the piece of equipment you are on. If working with your arms on a weight or tension machine keep your back straight and align your head and neck with your torso.
