Designing a Home Gym

Spring is here, the weather is getting warmer, and before we know it, it'll be full-blown summer. If you want to work on your beach body but don't want to deal with the hassle and expense of going to the gym, a home gym in the basement is the ideal solution!

Total Basement Finishing provides custom home gym design and installation to make the process a breeze. Whether you want to use a specific section of your basement or turn the entire space into your personal workout area, we can provide you with the right walls, floors, and lighting for a comfortable and practical space.

Here are some key things to consider when planning your home gym:

Flooring: A floor that's comfortable to move around on, strong enough to support equipment, and sturdy enough to not be damaged when something is dropped is essential in a home gym, on top of considerations for waterproof materials when working in a basement.

Mirrors: Adding full wall mirrors is popular because it makes the room feel bigger, creates more light, and allows you to check your technique and form.

Electronics: Adding a speaker system allows you to play the right music for your workout, while a TV in front of the treadmill is a popular way to help pass the time.
