Nowadays the cult to the body is quite extended in our society, reason why we look for different ways of exercising ourselves to be able to fulfil our objectives properly. One of these ways is to join a gym, which will have all the necessary facilities to carry out our exercises. However, it is important to know why certain materials will be better or worse when training.
It is obvious that one of the things we look for in our gyms is safety, not only for ourselves, but also for all users. If the facilities do not have an adequate surface idónea, we are at risk of suffering injuries, that the equipment ends up deteriorated and that greater damages are caused to the facilities.
Of course, not all exercises require the same type of surface. If, for example, you want to use weight-lifting machinery, it is ideal to cover the floor with rubber tiles.
One of the main benefits of this type of material is impact resistance. In the event that any of the weights fall or the floor becomes damp due to sweat or other elements, they will stop the direct impact and prevent slipping and sliding. In addition, they are very easy to install, so we benefit more when considering whether or not to install them. Therefore, it is an ideal material to prevent injuries.
On the other hand, if we practice yoga or aerobics, we require a harder surface that provides stability and balance. It can be made with PVC or polyurethane, similar to wood in appearance, but more non-slip.
So, we can say that if you are in doubt about which materials to use for your gym, the rubber coating is ideal. Don’t hesitate to look at our products on the website.
