FitVilo Tools
Four interactive planning tools for apartment training, all usable right on this page. Each is a transparent model built on published figures rather than physical tests: ground-reaction-force multiples and impact-sound limits for the noise estimate, published equipment dimensions for the fit check, and plain arithmetic for the home-versus-gym comparison. The numbers behind every one of them are documented on the methodology page, and each tool also lives inside a guide that explains what to do with its output.
Apartment noise-risk estimate
Pick your situation. The estimate updates as you change any answer and names the one fix that helps most.
Estimated risk: -
FitVilo model - based on published figures. See methodology.
What the risk levels mean and which fixes are worth the money: Quiet apartment workouts.
What fits your clear floor zone
Enter the clear floor zone you can give a workout. The list updates as you type and names the dimension that rules each option out.
Fits
Does not fit
FitVilo model - based on published figures. See methodology.
How to measure your clear zone before you buy anything: Workout equipment in a small room.
Home setup vs gym membership: break-even
Enter your own numbers in whatever currency you use. The comparison updates as you type. No currency symbol is assumed.
- Break-even point -
- Hours saved per year (no commute) -
- 3-year gym total -
- 3-year home total -
Assumption: the 3-year comparison treats the equipment budget as a one-time cost over a 3-year lifespan, with no resale value counted.
FitVilo model - based on published figures. See methodology.
The costs people forget on both sides of this comparison: Home gym vs gym membership.
Foldability time-cost calculator
Put in how long the gear takes to set up and pack away. The estimate updates as you type and totals the fold-cycle time you spend in a year.
Fold-cycle time per year: -
FitVilo calculator - based on your inputs and plain arithmetic. See methodology.
Why slow-to-fold gear stops getting used, with real fold times by equipment type: Foldable workout gear.
Walking pad and treadmill dataset
31 walking pads, 2-in-1 units, and treadmills scored for apartment fit from their published folded size, footprint, top speed, and weight, with the source page linked on every row. The full sortable table lives in Walking pad vs treadmill, next to the noise and floor-load context that the scores depend on.
