If your basement or attic is underutilized, it could be a fit \u2013\u00a0but make sure it&#8217;s temperature controlled. You don&#8217;t want to freeze in the winter, and sweat more than necessary in the summer. Windows or fans are also a must &#8211; you\u2019ll want to circulate out all that sweaty air in every season. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Typically speaking, the living room is a solid choice, since that&#8217;s generally where the TV is; it\u2019s a built-in perk if you plan to use workout videos. Got a guest bedroom? It could work as a gym when you need it, and those extra closets and shelves can be used for equipment storage. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where you set up shop is totally a matter of preference, but one word of caution: Avoid your own bedroom, since bringing <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">any<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> energies that distract from sleep or your relationship \u2013\u00a0e.g., fitness equipment \u2013\u00a0is a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mindbodygreen.com\/articles\/feng-shui-for-your-bedroom\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">feng shui no-no<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2>#2:\u00a0Declutter before decorating your home gym<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3795\" src=\"https:\/\/dolly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/gmb-monkey-518169-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"820\" height=\"547\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/gmb-monkey-518169-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/gmb-monkey-518169-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/gmb-monkey-518169-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/gmb-monkey-518169-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/gmb-monkey-518169-unsplash-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s one of the tenets of decorating any room, and the home gym is no exception: Cut the clutter to make room for more space (and in this case, more movement). <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/dolly.com\/junk-removal\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=home-gym-setup\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dolly<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to schedule a junk removal, or donate any non-joy-sparking paraphernalia standing in the way of you and your fitness goals. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to clear out any boxes or objects that are in the way of nearby windows: Natural light is more energizing than artificial light. (If natural light isn\u2019t an option \u2013\u00a0e.g, you&#8217;re setting up in the basement, or you tend to work out at night \u2013\u00a0try using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsrec.com\/415012-home-gym-lighting-design.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6-inch round recessed &#8220;pot&#8221; lights<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for every 30 feet of floor space.) <\/span><\/p>\n<h2>#3:\u00a0Add some personal flair to your new home gym<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3790\" src=\"https:\/\/dolly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/image-3-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"820\" height=\"615\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/image-3-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/image-3-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/image-3-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/image-3-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.taskrabbit.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/image-3-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you&#8217;ve selected the spot for your home gym and cleared out the space, it\u2019s time to get decorating. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Incorporate colors and artwork that motivate you. For inspiration, look to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/women\/features\/color-psychology\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">color psychology<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Bright shades like yellow, orange, and red can get you pumped up, while muted hues of grey and blue are the perfect zen backdrop for a personal yoga and meditation spot. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re short on space, or you\u2019re setting up in a multi-purpose room, put furniture to double duty. Use an ottoman to store equipment like dumbbells, jump ropes, and resistance bands. Some hooks over a door can go a long way for hanging items like foam and yoga mat carriers. And consider what space will need to be put away during workout hours. If you\u2019re working out in a guest bedroom, maybe opt for a foldable futon instead of a permanent queen bed. Lightweight furniture that\u2019s easy to move will be your friend when you need to move the couch back after you\u2019ve been deadlifting.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>#4:\u00a0Consider adding a mirror to the space<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3791\" src=\"https:\/\/dolly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/image-4-1-1024x697.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"820\" height=\"558\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dang, you look good!

They\u2019re also a good way to assess whether you&#8217;re doing certain poses correctly. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;s a reason so many gyms have mirrors by the weight racks; it&#8217;s the easiest way for people to see exactly what position they&#8217;re in when stretching and lifting. You can put one big mirror up, or spread <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/inmyownstyle.com\/home-gym-or-fitness-room-mirrors.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">multiple, uniform ones<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> along a wall. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Need a hand bringing a heavy mirror or two home?

Subscription workout services like ClassPass can run up a pretty penny, too: Memberships can cost up to $165 per month. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And in fact, while the costs of building a home gym may seem high up front, they don\u2019t have to be. If you\u2019re on a tight budget, start small: Never underestimate the power of a jump rope, a yoga mat, and some dumbbells. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some minor, inexpensive touches can go a long way in decorating your home gym, too. Put an aroma diffuser on a nearby shelf and keep it filled with energizing essential oils, like citrus, peppermint, and pepper. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stream fitness classes for low or no fees \u2013\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.corepoweryoga.com\/yoga-on-demand\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CorePower<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/streaming.modelfit.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ModelFIT<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> cost $20 per month, and celeb trainers like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCf8JDtso1btJMR3ux0bCrTg\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Andrea Speir<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> have free Youtube classes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With just a few home workout accessories, you can make your own personal fitness center on a shoestring budget. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your heart is set on top-notch treadmills and ellipticals, look for used equipment online. Craigslist, LetGo, and OfferUp all have machinery.
