Rating of the best Swedish walls for children and adults 2020

Physical activity is very important for the body at any age. The modern pace of life does not always allow an adult to find time to visit a fitness center or sports clubs. With children, the situation is no less difficult - at an early age they may not be interested in physical exercise in a “pure form”. In this situation, home wall bars are the solution.

Kids will be happy to climb the crossbars of the wall, hang on rings, climb a rope and enjoy outdoor games right in the apartment. This is especially true in winter - children will not have to sit at a computer or TV, because they will be carried away by useful physical activity.

How to choose a gymnastic apparatus, how much a quality option costs - we will consider further.

Origin of the name and features

The gymnastic wall is familiar to many people from physical education in educational institutions. It traces its history back to the end of the 18th century, when Johann Guts-Mutsa, a German teacher, first described some of the exercises performed with this projectile. A little later, Per Henrik Ling, a doctor and teacher from Sweden, developed a more complete set of gymnastic exercises on the apparatus, for which he was nicknamed the "Swedish wall".

The projectile looks like an ordinary ladder with many parallel rungs attached to the wall. In more formal terms, it is a collapsible structure made of metal or wood, which is suitable for gyms, for a summer residence or for an apartment. It is intended for adults and children to perform physical exercises of a developing and strengthening nature.

The equipment and characteristics of the projectile depend on the model. You can buy both a separate gymnastic wall and a children's sports complex, in which it will be present. The latter is a more interesting option, it will captivate a child of any age with a variety of options. For installation in an apartment, a ceiling height of more than 2 meters is required.

At a price, the models have a fairly wide range - from 5 thousand for budget ones to 100 thousand rubles for professional ones. The average price of household shells is 10 thousand rubles. It is worth noting that the budget options are not inferior in quality to the more expensive ones.

Where is it profitable to buy a shell?

Complexes with wall bars can also be found in sports stores, but there are often only a few models of them, while the choice in online stores is impressive.

Stores often hold sales, promotions and discounts appear, for example, due to the fact that the model is out of the year and a new one has already been released.

You can wait for such a moment, or choose the model you like and the store where it will be presented at the lowest price.

What is the best Swedish wall to buy?

There is no single answer to this question, because the selection criteria for people are very different.

Where to start choosing?

First of all, it is worth taking into account all the details - the age and interests of the child and the weight of adults (due to the limitation on the maximum load), allocate and measure the space for the installation of the sports complex, decide which equipment should be present in the complex, and which are not particularly relevant for you and a child.

The best manufacturers in 2020 are represented both among domestic and foreign firms. Therefore, the product of which company is better is a purely individual decision and is conditioned by the correspondence of the model to your needs.

Popular models and a rating of quality goods that have already proven themselves in the eyes of consumers can serve as a guideline when choosing.

• Gladiator mesh;
• Punching bag;

• Walls surrounded by handles on the sides;
• Corner - large universal complexes with a lot of equipment.

What to do if a malfunction is found?

There is no confidence in the reliability of the attachment of shells to the wall. However, elements made of plastic can show defects - for example, a cracked gymnastic ring. In this case, you must contact the store. As a rule, a broken part of the complex is sent for examination to find out if the permissible load has not been exceeded. And, in case of a positive outcome, the client is refunded for a defective product, or a replacement is made.

The Swedish wall is a great chance to instill in your child a love for exercise. A bright and interesting sports complex will delight any kid. You can practice on it with the help of adults - from 4 months, and independently - from 3 years (if there are mats on the floor). This will allow a young athlete to develop motor skills, and an adult to work on different muscle groups and maintain good physical shape. And, taking into account the above information, the question “which model is better to buy” - no longer seems difficult.
