Fitness Area Planning

I don't know your storage, but I mentioned sliding doors. That means as open as a barn door is possible, so the outside temperature should on average not be exceeded. If you do without the overhead glazing and possibly install shutters, that is easily possible, especially without insulation.

The Concept 2 is quite loud during training, so you can only watch TV with headphones. That’s why we chose the WaterRower. The downside is that you can’t adjust the resistance quite as easily. (You wouldn’t believe how loud it actually is in the gym)
