Admit it: you\u2019re thinking about creating your own private gym, maybe in that garage or basement you\u2019re not really using. Before you begin, however, ask yourself a few important questions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is my floor suitable for a gym space?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are three essential criteria to consider. Your floor needs to be:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong> Resistant<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>A gym space that allows for a full-body, six-pack-honing workout usually requires equipment that can weigh a ton. A garage is well-suited for this, since it\u2019s usually fitted with a solid concrete floor (it can support the weight of a car). If you\u2019re thinking of setting up your exercise room in your basement, however, make sure the floor can support the weight of all your equipment.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong> Flexible<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>You could easily drop a dumbbell, weight or kettlebell during an intense training session, so your floor needs to be flexible enough to absorb the shock. You can have a polyaspartic and polycarbamide coating added to your floor to reinforce its flexibility.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong> Waterproof<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Another important factor is whether your floor is waterproof or not. Rooms like the garage and basement are usually prone to high levels of humidity, which can be bad for both your equipment and your health. Make sure that your space is properly insulated.<\/p>\n<p>If your floors need to be renovated, keep these three criteria in mind: flexibility, water-tightness, resistance to weight and shock. Polyurea and epoxy floor finishes meet all three.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Think comfort<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve ever trained intensely before, you\u2019ll know how important fresh, cool air is both during and after a session. Install an air-conditioner: you\u2019ll be happy you did.<\/p>\n<p>Thinking of renovating your garage floor in the new year?
