Get the most out of YOUR GYM MEMBERSHIP

Maximise your monthly fee with these easy workout tips

Considering joining a gym, or already signed up but guilty of hitting the juice bar more than the pool? Not only is getting your money's worth key, but making the most of your workout time can make a big difference when it comes to getting the results you want. Here's how.

Exercise bike

SET UP PROPERLY 

Before you get on, adjust the seat to hip level. When you mount the bike, rest your heel into the front of the pedal (positioned at its lowest point) - it should be straight. If it's not, adjust the seat again, so when you slip your foot through the strap or into the cages, you have a bend in your leg of roughly 5-10 degrees.
