Coop Calls Out Jammer Arms With CRAZY Potential
Welcome to Home Gym Club! With October almost over, Thanksgiving is officially right around the corner. As a certified personal trainer who also has a huge sweet tooth, I’ll be the first to admit this is the most difficult time to stick to your fitness goals. With carb-heavy holiday dinners and sugary desserts around, it’s easy to abandon your self-discipline and go overboard on all those calories.
Instead of taking one satisfying step forward to take two far less satisfying steps back, strike the right balance of enjoying time (and treats) with loved ones and still adhering to your plan. Find ways to burn a few extra calories, like taking the stairs instead of the elevator, going for nightly walks, or penciling a quick HIIT session into your schedule to stay ahead of the game—and that annual holiday weight gain.

The Adjustable Jammer Arms With CRAZY Potential
Coop’s been on a jammer arm craze lately.
Having recently tested the Griffin Adjustable Jammer Arms (check out the official GGR YouTube channel for the full review), the equipment guru got his hands on another pair of adjustable arms.
The verdict?
Crandall Fitness created a patented product with crazy potential. However, Coop also had some notable callouts in his latest video review. See if the juice is worth the squeeze for this squat rack upgrade.
A Message From Pique Life

Horizon 7.8 AT Treadmill Review
If you like low-maintenance, durable cardio machines, you’ve come to the right place. Horizon Fitness is known for producing high-quality treadmills, including the 7.4 AT and the more updated 7.8 AT.
With a large running deck, highly responsive motor, and quick-dial controls, the top model from Horizon’s Studio Series line offers a tidy package of features for cardio enthusiasts. However, does that mean it’s the right treadmill for your garage gym?
Head of Content and resident fitness expert Kate Meier covers everything you need to know in this in-depth Horizon 7.8 AT Treadmill review. And if you’re convinced it’s the right fit, you can use an exclusive GGR discount code to save on your new cardio machine.
This or That
Air Bike vs. Treadmill
Should you spin your wheels or stride it out?
Choosing a cardio path often comes down to personal preference. However, there are other factors to consider—including your joint health, performance goals, and fitness level—that may steer you to one side of the air bike vs. treadmill debate.
Senior Staff Writer and certified personal trainer Lauren Strong addresses this head-to-head battle in a comprehensive breakdown of two fantastic cardio options. By the time you blaze through her comparison guide, you’ll know whether to put the pedal to the metal or step onto the running belt.

Best Compression Boots
While nothing can replace proper nutrition and sleep, the best muscle recovery tools can make a significant difference, especially when you’re feeling beat up after a tough workout. A staple in physical therapy clinics around the world, compression boots can enhance your recovery by providing an air-powered, pulsing massage to soothe those sore legs.
The best part?
Unlike massage guns, compression boots don’t require your time and attention. Simply slip them on, power them up, and let them do the work.
To help you find the right fit for your feet, the GGR team took a seat to test and score different models on criteria like compression level, durability, adjustability, and value. Ultimately, the squad selected five of the best compression boots, so there’s a recovery option for legs of all shapes and sizes.
