Exercise has become an integral part of everyday life of most people. An individual spends at least some part of his life in exercise. Exercise can be done with equipment or without equipment. Gym equipment helps in exercising a specific part or group of muscles or organs of the body. Today a wide range of gym equipment are available in the market.

The most common gym equipment are multigyms, treadmills, swiss balls, dumb bells, bar bells, rowing machines, exercise bicycles, balance boards, abdomen exercisers resistance bands and punching bags. There are various facilities, equipment associated with gym equipment like heart rate monitors, sauna baths, swimming pools etc.

A multigym consists of incremented weight plates that move up and down on steel guides. It usually consists of attachments for exercise of chest, arms, thighs, calves, shoulders and pectorals (sometimes called wings or pecs).

Treadmill is an equipment used for running without moving any distance. It consists of a conveyor belt which slides on rollers on which the individual can run or walk.

Swiss ball or yoga ball is a rubber ball of 50 to 85 cm which is used to develop balance and exercise the abdominal and back muscles.

Dumbbells and bar bells are the traditional gym equipment. They consist of variable or fixed free weights attached to a small or long bar. They are lifted against gravity to tone muscles like biceps, triceps, forearm muscles, chest and shoulder muscles etc. They usually come in pairs.

Rowing machines are gym equipment designed to stimulate rowing in water. They are used to exercise pecs and back muscles.

Exercise bicycles are stationery bicycles with resistance discs for wheels. They are used to exercise thigh and calf muscles.

Balance board consists of a board fixed on a bearing. It is used to develop balance.

Abdomen exerciser consists of an inclined board with leg rollers for doing sit ups. It is used to exercise the stomach and abdomen muscles.

All the above equipment except free weights have attached electronics to monitor number of cycles and other parameters. Resistance bands are elastic bands and in these the resistance of the band to stretching is used to exercise muscles like quadriceps and deltoids.

Punching bag consists of sand filled cushioned bags or other rugged material bags for practice by boxers. They are either hung from the ceiling or fixed on a stand.

Most professional gyms have the above mentioned equipment along with other facilities like swimming pools, sauna baths, steam baths etc.

For a home gym, a multigym with a few dumbbells and barbells are sufficient for workout of the entire body. The starting price of a multigym is around 1500$. The cost of other equipment varies according to the make.

BONUS : Title:
Pumping or Pounding to Build Muscle Mass?

Word Count:
447

Summary:
There are pretty much 2 schools of thought in how to gain muscle weight: you are either a "pumper", meaning you do a lot of sets for a lot of reps, using lower weights, and you go after the "pump". Or, you are a "pounder", meaning you do a low number of sets, a lower rep range, but you use as much weight as possible, so you are more concerned with getting stronger than getting a pump.

There are pretty much 2 schools of thought in how to gain muscle weight: you are either a "pumper", meaning you do a lot of sets for a lot of reps, using lower weights, and you go after the "pump".

Or, you are a "pounder", meaning you do a low number of sets, a lower rep range, but you use as much weight as possible, so you are more concerned with getting stronger than getting a pump.

Lately, in the magazines you are having more and more people favoring "pumping" as opposed to "pounding".

The man that without a doubt made getting a "pump" the thing to do to build muscle mass is Arnold (no last name needed).

Especially since he made his famous "comment" about getting a pump in the movie "Pumping Iron", in addition to his very high volume workouts, many are led to believe that the way that Arnold built his incredible physique was through the "pump".

However, look closer at what really happened. You can read in any of his biographies that at the start of his bodybuilding career, all the way up until he pretty much came to America, Arnold was NOT a "pumper".

He was a "pounder". He trained with a "powerlifting"-style. He even competed in several powerlifting competitions.

By the time he came over to the States, he already weighed 240 pounds, before he started really following "pumping" routines.

His style of training was very "ballistic", fast rep speed, and very heavy weights.......just as he himself has said many times.

Well, he already was 240 pounds of muscle, the result of heavy lifting, NOT pumping.

Now, did he gain any additional muscle once he switched over to a pumping-style????

No! Look at all of his competition body weights.

The biggest he ever competed at was in the 230's.

Remember, he was already 240 from the heavy pounding back in his native country.

He gained the majority of his muscle mass from heavy lifting, "pounding"......NOT from pumping.

If pumping was the way to go to build and gain muscle mass weight, then Arnold should have gotten bigger, NOT maintain his current weight.

Most people make the mistake of looking at Arnold's body, his peaked biceps, massive chest, etc., and think that he built that by doing a ton of sets, chasing the "pump".

Well, all that managed to do for him was maintain the musculature that he built by heavy, powerlifting-style lifting at the beginning of his lifting career!!!

Who knows how big he would have gotten had he stuck to what made him big in the first place........"pounding"!

So, what are you, a "pumper", or a "pounder"???
