When a product is defective, it can malfunction and cause serious harm to the person using it. This can happen with home gym equipment as well. When a person becomes injured by a piece of faulty equipment, they can pursue legal action in order to recover compensation for any damages that stem from it. This can include medical bills, lost wages, etc. It is important to know that compensation can only be recovered when equipment is defective, not for just any workout related injury. When a manufacturer is liable for negligence, they may owe the compensation.
