Do you have limited time to work out due to a busy schedule?
We understand completely! While we suggest that people try to join a gym if
possible it’s nice to have some equipment at home for when you can’t make it to
the gym or if there isn’t a gym nearby. In most gyms you have options like machines,
racks, and cables but you can create a home gym that will get the job done
without all the bells and whistles! You can STILL get in a great workout at
home. Some of our best transformations have come from our at-home workout plan transformation winners!
Since we want you to #MakeYourMove wherever you are, we want
to give you some options of things to keep around the house. Over time you can even
add different items and equipment so that you can continue to improve your own
gym at home!
BUILD YOUR HOME GYM FOR LESS THAN $100
40-lb Dumbbell Set - $42.99
Resistance Tubes with Handles - $24.99
Anti-Burst
Gym Ball - $17.99
You’ll even have some money left over to snag a Speed Rope for $7.99 (it’s great for cardio bursts)!
Although coffee tables (or even the ground!) can work for
some exercises, if possible it is best to have a bench to use. If funds and space
allow consider adding one of these benches below to your home gym. Bonus, they
come with weights!
Crunch Board & Vinyl Dumbbell Set - $89.99
Weight
Bench & 80-lb Weight Set - $129.99
If a bench is out of the question and you are a little more
advanced, the exercise ball is great for things like curls, chest press, etc.
The ball forces you to stabilize your core while performing the movement.
