Staying healthy and in good shape is very, very important. To reach these goals, many people have invested in their own home exercise equipment, be it in the form of a set of free weights, an elliptical, a treadmill, some branded fitness equipment, or some combination of these. This is an admirable effort, and, in some cases, this can even increase the value of a home. However, as with anything, there are certain safety considerations to keep in mind.
For example, most high-quality exercise equipment has a lot of moving parts, which can introduce pinch points or points of impact. Additionally, modern exercise equipment typically requires power, which can introduce electrical hazards or even the possibility of the power cord becoming a choking hazard. As you can see, staying healthy and in good shape is about more than just owning and using the exercise equipment. Do you have a plan to protect yourself and your family members from these potential safety hazards?
