How to Safely Move Your Gym Equipment

by | May 6, 2017 | Features

Safety and proper body mechanics is always very important when moving anything, especially gym equipment. First and foremost, all of your gym equipment should be properly sanitized before moving them. For smaller items, having large boxes to put them inside always works. For larger items, it’s always best if you can get some extra help to safely move them. Make sure that your helpers know how to properly move large items to avoid any injuries.

Key Takeaways:

  • If you’re like many workout buffs, moving to a new home means having to figure out how to move heavy gym equipment.
  • Whether it’s as simple as a yoga mat or as complicated as a treadmill, putting your new at home gym together isn’t going to be a walk in the park.
  • First and foremost, it’s particularly important to sanitize and properly clean everything in your gym before the move. This way you won’t bring any sort of nasty bacteria and germs with you into your new pad. Cleaning your equipment will also help keep it in top-top shape after the move.
