The Home Gym Upgrade NO ONE Talks About

While everyone loves to fawn over a new barbell or sturdier squat rack, it’s easy to forget there are other ways to upgrade your home gym that might not be so obvious.

Luckily, Coop has a keen eye for all things equipment — and he’s here to shine the spotlight on something you’ve probably been sleeping on for a while.

With Black Friday right around the corner, check out his latest video on the official GGR YouTube channel so you can save money on a space-saving item that will make your home gym experience significantly better (and safer).

WalkingPad P1

Written by: Nicole Davis, Head of Content

I got this under-desk treadmill 2.5 years ago and use it every day in the winter when I don't want to walk outside in the unpleasant Michigan weather. Although the remote stopped working, the machine itself still works fine via the app and is a lifesaver when I want to get my steps in.

With up to 40% off from WalkingPad for Black Friday, this should be on your holiday wishlist if you want to stay active this winter.

Load Up: Rucking Workouts for All Levels

Remember when you just couldn’t wait to take your backpack off as soon as you got home from school? The urge to get that weight off your shoulders as a kid is something you may soon experience again as an adult. And no, it’s not because you’re about to embark on a new educational journey well after your days as a student.

Ironically, those formative years of carrying around textbooks, notebooks, and whatever else you stuffed into your backpack were actually a covert training program designed to prepare you for a form of functional fitness that’s made waves in recent years: the ruck march. 

To help you get off on the right foot (literally), I’ve put together a series of training sessions so ruckers of all shapes, sizes, and fitness levels can start becoming healthier one step at a time. Plus, we’ll have some additional insight from a longtime rugby player, certified EMT, and fire academy trainee who’s made rucking an integral part of his workout regimen.
