For most home gyms: an adjustable bench, a rack, a barbell with plates and a set of dumbbells covers 80% of training. Add one cardio piece — usually a treadmill or spin bike — and you have a complete gym in roughly 9m². If space is tight, a multi gym or functional trainer replaces most of it in one footprint.

Frame gauge, motor rating and duty cycle. Home cardio is rated for a few hours a day; commercial machines run continuously and carry heavier warranties. Our commercial range uses AC motors and heavier steel, and Shua commercial cardio carries a seven-year warranty against five years on the home range — see the Shua warranty terms. If more than one household will use it daily, buy commercial.

Yes. We ship anywhere in South Africa from our Johannesburg distribution centre and export into the rest of Africa. Delivery with full installation is available in Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town; elsewhere we deliver by courier and talk your team through setup. Larger commercial orders are installed by our own technicians. Full terms are on our delivery policy page.

Yes — we carry more payment options than any other specialist in the country. Float, Mobicred and Payflex all run on the site for home purchases, and commercial fit-outs can be financed or leased on terms structured around business cash flow. See finance options, or speak to us before you order and we will match the right option to the spend.

We do. MiFitness runs its own technical department rather than outsourcing to a call-out service, with teams covering installation, warranty work, annual servicing and spares. Existing customers can log a service request directly. It is the reason we still service treadmills we sold a decade ago.

Yes — and you should, especially for cardio. We have five showrooms across Johannesburg, Sandton, Fourways and Cape Town where the range is set up and running. Find your nearest showroom.
