Best treadmills
Whether you want to recreate the full gym experience or you just want something cheap and cheerful to keep active while WFH, there's a treadmill out there to suit your fitness needs.Our pick?
SPIRIT CT800
The CT800 is stout and extremely durable, weighing in at over 350 lbs. The combination of the heavy-duty steel frame and aluminium console masts and side rails make it comparable to treadmills at much higher price points in the commercial market. The large workout area makes this model very appealing to walkers and runners and perfect for home use.
Best Exercise Bikes
If you've ever been to a spin class, you'll know that there's nothing quite like it. That said, spin classes don't come cheap, and that cost adds up pretty quickly. So while you might've previously considered the expense of investing in an at-home exercise bike to be a bit excessive, it turns out that they could save you a whole lot of money in the long run.Our Pick?
This new generation of Assault Bike combines the original design of the Classic with the top features of the Elite to create a hybrid bike that’s durable, low maintenance and built for hardcore use. Designed to automatically increase resistance as speed is increased, the Assault Bike Pro is 100% athlete powered – meaning you’re totally in control of your training.
Best Elliptical Machine
There are few machines that work as hard as an elliptical. It's like a handyman for your body: it can pretty much fix everything. An elliptical (or a crosstrainer) can improve your cardio, your strength, your tone... it works your arms, your legs, your glutes, your abs... honestly, there's not much these machines can't do. Best of all, they're low-impact, which means they're great for people recovering from injury or for people just embarking on a new fitness regime.

Best Rowing Machine
Rowing is one of the best activities you can do for your body, because it combines cardio with strength and resistance training. It will help keep your heart healthy and help you develop endurance, tone your muscles and strengthen your whole body. It’s one of the few “complete” exercises which works the shoulders, arms, back, abs, and your calves and thighs - so why don’t more of us have rowing machines at home?
