IRONINDEX
Help with the practical decisions behind a home gym.
IRONINDEX publishes guides to choosing, measuring and maintaining home-gym equipment. The aim is to help you check whether equipment suits your room, works with what you already own and supports the training you intend to do.
IRONINDEX is a trading name. The operator's details are in the privacy notice.
Our editorial method starts with manufacturer instructions, specifications and relevant governing bodies' rules. Guides link to the documents used for factual claims. A specification applies to the named model and version; it is not a claim that we have tested the equipment.
We distinguish source information, calculations and editorial advice. If an answer depends on an installation, an unidentified component or missing information, we explain what still needs checking. Source-check dates describe desk research, not hands-on testing.
How we research sets out the full method, including what each specification label means and how shortlists are built.
AI tools assist with research organisation, drafting and editing. They are not sources or qualified reviewers. Our publication policy requires human review, and topics that need specialist input remain on hold until that review is available.
We do not invent product tests, user experiences, reviewers or qualifications. Equipment guidance cannot assess a particular building or replace the instructions for your equipment.
To report a mistake, use the contact page and include the page address, the disputed detail and a supporting source. Substantive corrections are recorded when advice changes.
Our affiliate disclosure explains commercial links. Manufacturer citations let you check the evidence yourself.
