Here\u2019s a look at eight pieces of equipment you can use to set up your home gym \u2013 without taking up the entire space.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Resistance bands<\/h3>\n<p>One of the most versatile pieces of equipment you can buy is a set of resistance bands. These stretchy cords are not only great for mobility, but for gaining strength.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Kettlebell<\/h3>\n<p>You can amp up just about any exercise by adding a kettle bell to it. You should have at least one in your home gym.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Battle ropes<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re setting up a gym in your garage or are willing to anchor ropes down, a set of battle ropes for slams and waves is a great addition to any workout.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Heavy bag<\/h3>\n<p>Maybe going for a run isn\u2019t your thing, but you still need to get some cardio in. A heavy bag gives you the opportunity to increase your heart rate while throwing a few punches. A lot of heavy bags come with hand wraps or gloves, so you\u2019ll have everything you need.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Jump rope<\/h3>\n<p>A jump rope is another alternative to bulky cardio equipment like a treadmill or elliptical. It\u2019s a space-saving choice that\u2019s ideal for a garage gym.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Pull up bar<\/h3>\n<p>Get ready to do chin-ups with a pull up bar. Again, you\u2019ll need to hang it and anchor it in place so it can take your weight, but once installed it\u2019s a simple piece of equipment that will maximize your efforts.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Adjustable dumbbells<\/h3>\n<p>An entire weight rack is huge. Save space with a set of adjustable dumbbells that you can add weight to without moving massive pieces of metal.<\/p>\n<h3>8. Ab wheel<\/h3>\n<p>Want to work your abs but don\u2019t have a ton of space? An ab wheel is a good solution. It can be stored in a cabinet when it\u2019s not in use and provides a stellar workout.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are plenty of easy and affordable ways to workout at home.
