For those who use the argument that they do not have time to go to the gym in the midst of their everyday schedule, there are many pieces of fitness equipment online that you can purchase so you can make time at home to get a workout in.
If you are unsure of where to start when building your at home gym, a must-have piece of equipment would be a fitness bench, as it allows you to do a variety of different exercises. Thankfully, Amazon has slashed the price of the Finer Form Multi-Functional Gym Bench down from £179.99 to £118.99 as part of a limited time deal.

Made with high grade steel to withstand hard workouts, this exercise bench won't wobble as you complete your exercises. Said to only take 30 minutes to assemble, the bench is designed with a triangular base support and comes with a 3-inch thick cushion pad.
Perfect for both dumbbell and bodyweight exercises, this gym bench comes with a weight capacity of 660lbs and it can be adjusted to dozens of different positions depending on your gym session goals. The dimensions of the bench are 147.4D x 58.4W x 86.4H centimetres.

Product Description
Another popular exercise bench on Amazon is the FLYBIRD Adjustable Bench. Normally retailing at £99.99, shoppers can now grab it in a limited time deal for £84.98. Made with a stable base and a robust frame made of strictly controlled quality steel, this bench has a weight capacity of 700lbs.
Alternatively, shoppers can grab the Pro Fitness Multi Bench from Argos for £119. With six adjustable positions and angles, this bench can help with a range of exercises. The bench also comes with an adjustable preacher curl pad to help with training your biceps.
Back to the Finer Form Bench, the equipment currently has a 4.5 star rating from over 9,400 shoppers. Many people left raved reviews about the bench, with quite a few praising how easy it was to assemble.
One happy shopper wrote: "Brilliant product! Does everything I need it to do in a home gym. I'm a 5ft girl and struggle with adjusting equipment in the gym as the lowest adjustment settings still tend to be unsuitable for my height, especially back/glute hypers, however this bench adjusts to the perfect settings for me.
"Comfortable padding, easy adjustment, perfect size, very sturdy & stable & super easy to build. Would definitely recommend!"
With another five-star reviewer adding: "Wonderful bench! Just the right size for home use, doesn't take too much space! Well built and sturdy. Easy to assemble by yourself."
However, one shopper cautioned about the size of the bench. They said: "Sturdy enough but quite simply too small for most men. If you're 5' 9" or above it's too small. I'm 6' 2" and can just about make it work but any taller and you won't be able to use it."
While another customer added: "Not sure if the leg pads are robust enough could do with some bigger padding and the main bench could also be slightly wider."
Despite this, one impressed reviewer wrote: "Absolutely a great bit of gear. I was hesitant at first because of the price, however it's so well made and great quality."
With a sixth shopper adding: "Perfect for a home gym. Plenty of variation available that allows for a bunch of different workouts."

Pet owners claiming free flea treatment as heatwave sees pests rise
Itch offers a monthly subscription service to ensure pet owners remember to give their cat or dog regular flea treatment, with the first month free for new customers As the warmer weather returns, for many pet owners, so too does the risk of fleas, with animals spending more time outdoors, and the temperatures being prime for the parasites to thrive. But one online brand is giving owners the chance to tackle an infestation before it happens with a free treatment kit. According to experts at Itch, five fleas on an untreated pet can lead to more than a million eggs infesting your home in as little as four weeks. This alarming figure comes from the rapid life cycle of fleas, with a single female flea laying up to 50 eggs per day, just 24 hours after mating. In warm, humid environments, like many UK homes during summer, these eggs hatch into larvae, develop into pupae, and soon emerge as adult fleas, ready to start the cycle again. In ideal conditions, this entire process takes just a few weeks - that's why a minor flea problem can explode into a full-blown home infestation if left unchecked. What many pet owners don't realise is that 95% of flea eggs, larvae and pupae live not on your pet, but in your home. Fleas lay eggs on pets that fall into carpets, sofas, bedding, and other soft furnishings. From there, they develop out of sight, waiting for the chance to jump back onto your pet. To prevent fleas, it's recommended to give your dog or cat regular flea treatment every month to protect them against flea infestations. Itch offers a monthly subscription service to help owners remember when it's time to apply, with the brand offering the first month for free. Free flea treatment Product Description The retailer is offering new members to their subscription service their first month on the house, all they'll need to pay for is the postage, which is £2.99. If they go on to continue with the subscription, each month will cost £9.50, but the delivery will be free. Itch also allows customers to pause, move or cancel their subscription at any time. Itch tailors the perfect dose for your cat or dog based on their breed and size to ensure you receive the perfect safe and effective dose. Owners simply answer a few quick questions about their pets, and Itch will recommend the right treatment. The vet-approved treatment uses the ingredient fipronil, which kills adult fleas, and (S)-methoprene, which stops eggs and larvae from developing. It's scientifically proven to kill and prevent fleas, but it is recommended to treat both your pet and the home, using something like Itch Flea Home Spray to kill fleas and their offspring around the house. It's also vital to vacuum regularly and wash pet bedding on a hot wash (60°C or above). There are several other reputable flea treatment brands available that offer an alternative to Itch. Frontline is one of the best-known brands, and is available on Amazon, containing the same active ingredient as Itch. However, some pets may not get along with the ingredient, in which case, Advantage uses imidacloprid, which is also effective against fleas and is suitable for both cats and dogs. The downside with these is that it may take a bit of research to work out which pack and dosage is best suited to your pet, whereas Itch does all the hard work for you. According to Itch, more than 100,000 pets are using their treatment each month to get rid of fleas and prevent them coming back. The brand has a 4 sar rating based on more than 10,000 reviews on TrustPilot, with many pleased with the service for banishing infestations. One said: 'I've been an Itch subscriber for more than 2 years and love it. Treatment works well for both my dog and my cat and it's great not to have to remember to buy it each month. Don't miss the days of forgetting to buy and finding ourselves infested.' 'My dog Rudy became infested with fleas, for a second time in a year,' another explained. 'I Googled 'flea treatment' for small dogs. "Itch" came well recommended, and I opened an account with them. 24 hours later, the flea treatment, together with a dog toothpaste and toothbrush, was in my letterbox.' Some people have been left frustrated by the delivery, though, writing: 'Whilst I'm happy with the products, delivery leaves a lot to be desired. It's difficult to keep flea and worming treatment up to date when Royal Mail deliveries are so haphazard.' Another said it was 'the only thing that works for my dogs'. They added: 'No more flea problems. I have a subscription, and although it's only on the third month, they have never arrived late. All the worry of making sure I buy them on time & working out which product is best is taken out of my hands.'

Pontarddulais man behind new mindfulness guide
David Oromith, from Pontarddulais, was having a mental health crisis at the age of 18 and planning his own death. Now, more than 12 years later, he is a popular meditation teacher helping others find peace and happiness. A desperate late-night Google search for "Why is life just suffering?" introduced him to the path that would change his life. This summer, he releases a guide for people wrestling with anxiety, stress, and burnout. 'Calm Mind, Open Heart: 108 Reflections from Buddhism, Psychology & Real Life' distils the lessons that helped Mr Oromith trade panic attacks for peace of mind. Mr Oromith said: "I know how real life feels – panic attacks, depression – and I want others to know genuine change is possible without escaping to a mountaintop. "I learned that the hard way – and I wrote this book so no-one has to feel as helpless as I did." Mr Oromith first encountered mindfulness while working in mental-health services, already grappling with depression himself. He recalled: "Professionals told me I might have to just live with it. "Buddhism showed me that thoughts aren't facts and compassion and happiness can be trained like any other skill." Today, Mr Oromith co-runs the UK charity Samadhi, teaches weekly classes online and in person, runs retreats around the country, and produces podcasts. Manu Oromith, Samadhi co-founder, said: "David's story proves small, daily changes can transform a life. "'Calm Mind, Open Heart' puts that power in the reader's pocket." The book is set to be published on August 1, with signed pre-orders being shipped on July 25. The book can be pre-ordered on Samadhi's website for a signed copy delivered one week ahead of the street date and before the title appears on Amazon and in UK bookshops.
