How to Create your ultimate inspiring Resort style Home gym: 4 Tips to get that ultimate holiday feel

There’s nothing more inspiring than being on holiday in a tropical paradise and using their resort gym to get a good workout in, eating healthy and feeling good.
 
Here’s some few tips to help get that tropical resort style gym feeling into your own resort style home gym and create your ultimate inspiring workout space.
After all a home gym should be a place to feel inspired and remove stress and what better way than to bring some of that tropical holiday feeling into your own resort style home gym.
Who doesn’t want to feel like they are on holiday all the time?

 

1. Add Tropical Plants

Adding palms or big leaved plants  is one of the best ways to add life and a tropical feel to your resort style home gym space. You will likely find that having plants in your exercise space makes you feel more inspired.

One of my favorites is the Giant Peace Lilly. It looks lush all year round and it has great air purifying qualities of removing pollutants from the air. You also do not have to worry if you do not have a green thumb as it is easy to care for a Giant Peace Lilly and it will tell you when it needs water as its leaves start drooping when it needs a water top up. This makes it a great option for your resort style home gym.

2. Use Tropical Paint Colours

When painting your gym walls with color, choose light colors to get that tropical inspiring resort style home gym feel.

  • You can also use white paint to brighten up the space if its a dark area and on the roof to open up the space.
  • White can also be used everywhere and then color can be brought in via plants, art etc.
  • Make use of existing windows / views.
  • Wallpaper backdrops can also add a nice tropical theme to your resort style home gym.
