My Workout Equipment
Hey there! So I wanted to do a post about what I have in my "home gym", since I currently don't have an actual gym membership(hopefully that will be changing soon!). You don't even need any equipment to workout at home (i.e. Pilates), but if you want to get serious it definitely is helpful if you can't get to the gym, or if you just don't want to pay for a membership! Below is a picture of what I keep in my "home gym" (aka my room;)) :
- Bench (this is actually a piano bench, which currently functions as a chair at my vanity, and can also become a simple workout bench. Yes this is obviously very multipurposeful in my room!)
- Foam roller: this is a must for runners, or anyone who gets sore muscles! I used it for more than just rolling out my muscles, it can also function as a piece of "workout" equipment
- Dumbbells: a type of weight, can be used for many, many, purposes. I have one 40 lbs, a pair of 20 lbs, and a pair of 15 lbs
- Kettle bells: another type of weight, basically like a ball with a handle (kind of shaped like, a bell). I have these in 10 lbs
- Resistance Bands: I have two types: the standard (band + handles), and the "mini" or "loop" resistance bands. Can be used in place of standard weights, GREAT for traveling
- Mat
And that's all folks! There are a couple other pieces I would like to have, but don't currently own: BOSU ball, treadmill, wall attachments for RBs, and a barbell. There are so many ways to make your own home gym, explore and see what works best for you!:) Happy lifting:)
