Turn any doorway into an amazing gym for the whole family with Gym1

Gym 1 doorway gym with rings 2 Sponsored postRare is the present you can truly get for the *whole* family. Besides trips that cost crazy amounts of money or expensive game systems or electronics that encourage only passive play, there’s not much else that’s out there that the whole family can enjoy as a whole. On that short list is the Gym1 doorway gym that allows just about any doorway to become the coolest spot in your house. Gym 1 doorway gym with ringsYes, you read that right. It’s a doorway GYM. It really is the coolest thing we’ve ever done for any doorway, ever. The Gym1 installs in seconds with no drilling or damage to your doorway, supports over 300lbs, and it can attach to a whole range of products that can keep the whole family happy.Gym 1 doorway gym with ladder 2As much as I love opening the doors and letting the kids run wild, we do live in Seattle, which means rain is always a good possibility year-round. So, I’m basically always looking for something that can help them burn off energy, stay active, and have good old fashioned fun, even if they are stuck indoors. It was a very exciting day when we decided that the doorway to the movie room would become their new indoor gym. Thank goodness it was only minutes of setup before we had them swinging and playing because the kiddos were dying to get on it and see what it could do. Gym 1 set upMy kids have adored swings since they were tiny, so for them the Gym1 with swing attachment is now one of their very favorite things. Sometimes I catch them upstairs swinging away and burning energy, and other times I walk by and find them sitting quietly on the swing and reading chapter books. But, no matter how it’s being used, the Gym1 is just about always in use somehow. Gym 1 doorway gym pushing on swingBut, if we did happen to stop using it for a bit, I love that the Gym1 can be taken down easily when not in use and there are no marks or damage to the doorway or walls once it’s down. We’ve only done this once so far when we were having overnight guests stay in our movie room for a few days and we wanted to have the door be able to close {since the Gym1 mounts in the doorway, you cannot shut the door with it installed}. Taking it down was simple, and you would have never guessed that a gym had ever been up there. Putting it back up was also super easy and the kids were overjoyed to see their beloved swing back up again.

We leave the Gym1 up like that when we have little guests over who don’t know the gym rules or who can’t use the swing or ladder unattended.

Gym 1 doorway gym with ladderIf you’re lamenting the fact that the cold has descended, you have a small urban lot that doesn’t accommodate large play structures, or you’re one of the many who have no yard at all, the Gym1 doorway gym is your solution. The Gym1 can make just about any doorway into an active play set, so the kids can play rain or shine. Gym 1 resting on swingNow, I bet you’re wondering how a kids’ swing is for the *whole* family, right? Don’t worry, I’m getting to that. Remember how the Gym1 doorway gym can support up to 300lbs? Well, it can, which means us adults can use it, too. So, you can swing, climb, and pull up just like the kiddos, or you can invest in some really awesome fitness attachments that can take your Gym1 and transform it into an amazing fitness and relaxation tool. From yoga to boxing and low-impact, anti-gravity workouts, there is so much you can do on the Gym1.

Since the kids love the Gym1 so much that we can’t imagine our house without it, us adults have our own Gym1 wishlists this year that we’re hoping Santa brings – like the Yoga Swing {yoga in the air!}, the AirStraps {low resistance workouts!}, and the Fight Station {boxing, without all the space requirements!}. It will help us stay active even when we can’t go outdoors and will give us a good jump on our New Year’s resolutions. Find out more about Gym1 products, accessories, and play sets at Gym-1.net.

  2. I absolutely love this! I am a fitness instructor and my daughter has low muscle tone. This would be a great way for me to work with her on her strength. I love that it is so portable and versatile.
