Preventive maintenance the key to low down time

Owning a gym or any other fitness arena can sometimes turn out to be a nightmare if your gym equipments fail, causing a smoothly functioning arena to halt and be the cause of utter chaos in the arena. Well, this occurs more often than one can imagine and many arenas have fallen prey to this, standing mere spectators as their popularity dropped down to the trenches. One unexpected failure can sometimes be catastrophic for your gym’s reputation.

The best thing that you can do to avoid these moments of embarrassment coming your way  is to follow a regular preventive maintenance regime. Preventive maintenance is a preemptive step towards taking care of your equipment and keeping a tab on equipment health. This ensures that you know what’s going on with your equipment and can do maintenance and repair before the equipment completely breaks down and that too without any heads up. For the purpose of preventive gym equipment maintenance one can hire a team of professionals who would come in on a regular basis and do the maintenance process and suggest the required repairs and also would provide you with tips to enhance the performance of your equipment and prevent failures. Another option is to do the maintenance process yourself.

The process is a simple one and just requires you to follow the instructions provided in the equipment’s  manual by the manufacturer.  Some of the basic things that one needs to perform during the maintenance process are cleaning the equipment and removing any dirt and other foreign elements, lubricating the parts to reduce friction and thereby aiding the operation of the equipment, replacing the damaged parts with the same quality parts to avoid failure of the equipment and most of all keeping a track of the regime and following it on a regular basis.

Preventive maintenance is the key to preventing any unexpected failures and breakdowns.

Fitness arena at your home: A good idea or a bad one

Life in the fast lane can sometimes get the best of an individual and in all the hustle bustle fitness can sometimes take the back seat and once this happens it becomes more and more difficult to keep the wagon on its track and to keep health issues at bay. Even the fitness veterans fall victims to this and the level of fitness falls down gradually. With all this going on and time becoming a scarce resource an entirely different phenomenon has kicked in. this phenomenon is based on one simple modified proverb.

“If the horse can’t go to the pond at least the horse can arrange for water supply for himself” i.e. if an individual can’t take out the time to hit a gym then he can arrange for a home based fitness arena.





Yes the phenomenon we are talking about is the rapid growth in the purchase of fitness equipment by single users and the sales are not just limited to the classic treadmill or the famous cross trainer, users are going in for the big fish and purchasing high end equipments as well as all in ones which give them the illusion of high level of pro activity but most of the users just end up doing the regular set of exercises. A home based fitness arena may provide you with the comforts of your abode but can prove out to be a burden over time. With the fitness exercise equipment maintenance and the regular vigil on the equipment health adding on to the pile of work sometimes the arena of your dreams can turn out to be a nightmare. But there is a silver lining if you could see it, in other words if you are up for the challenge of maintenance of your exercise equipment, then a home based arena is your best bet providing you with the comforts of your home and keeping the wagon on track.
