Fitness and bodybuilding are two types of sports where equipment is extremely important. While in basketball you might get away with buying a ball and a hoop, fitness and bodybuilding cannot exist without adequate equipment. Just any kind of equipment won’t do either. You need quality stuff and a wide range of that too.
Think about the gloves that you use in the gym. OK they’re not an absolute must, but the right kind of gloves can help you out a great deal by providing much improved grip.
The shoes that you wear in the gym are quite important too. Not only in terms of providing protection for your feet, but also in providing support when you do some more or less heavy lifting.
The weights and machines that you find in the gym are part of the equipment required by this sport too. Obviously, the quality of these weights and machines is also very important.
Even though machines are useful in the sense that you will be able to achieve extreme isolation of different muscle groups with their aid, the human body built in a way that it best responds to training with free weights.
Use weights to build up the bulk, use machines to achieve maximum definition in all those hard-to-reach places.
