Let’s start with fitness equipment to make your home or eventually travel workouts easy to do so you can stay consistent with your routine no matter what!  Having a few simple things can really make your at-home workout experience so much better.

At Home Fitness Equipment

Resistance Bands – these bands are the BEST bands out there and can be the only thing you need to get a great workout at home or at the gym.  We use them for our online workouts and for workouts at The Transformation Club.

Anyone who is wanting to stay fit, strong, and flexible needs a set of these bands.  Our recommendation is the RBT Gym to Go Package, CLICK HERE to shop.

This Bar Attachment is also great so you can do attached exercises.

Training Box – This box is good for more than just step-ups.  You can use it to assist you in doing push-ups, mountain climbers, planks, burpees, single-leg squats, etc.  With 3 different heights, you will be able to progress and never run out of options.

Sliders – You can really create some fun workouts with these!  They allow you to do different lunge variations, push-up variations, hamstring curl variations, etc.

Foam Roller – This is a MUST have for anyone who works out!  Using this before your workouts and/or on a daily basis will help you get more out of your workouts because you can move better.  It increases flexibility, mobility, and breaks up tight fascia in the body.

Hypervolt Percussion Massage Gun – This is the ultimate foam roller and helps you break up the tension and tight muscles with 5 different attachments and 3 different speeds.  This is wonderful to target areas of the body and to get to areas that a foam roller might not be able to.  This is a wonderful gift that I guarantee the whole family will use.

Hyperice Vyper 2.0 High-Intensity Vibrating Foam Roller – I absolutely LOVE this foam roller!!!  It is one of my favorite recovery tools.  I actually like it better than the massage gun listed above. 

Jungle Gym Suspension Trainer – Another piece of simple equipment that allows you to do a variety of exercises from rows to assisted squats to lots of ab exercises.

Yoga Mat – Whether you practice traditional yoga or not having a non-toxic yoga mat for stretching and to cushion the floor when you are doing floor exercise is essential.  You want to make sure you get one that isn’t going to smell of toxic chemicals.

Foam Pad – This is great for protecting your knees against hard surfaces during stretching or while working out!  We use ours all the time!

Adjustable Kettlebell – I really love this because sometimes you just want to use a kettlebell for certain exercises…this is another nice to have in your home gym.

Yoga Equipment and Essentials

Yoga Blankets – I use at least one yoga blanket during all of my practices.  It’s great to sit on to elevate your hips, use as support, or cover up with during savasana.

Yoga Bolster – This is wonderful to have for your restorative or yin yoga practice as a support that will allow your body to release and relax.

Yoga Blocks + Strap – These are also great to have for your restorative or yin practice and come in handy as support in a lot of postures as an assist.

Fitness Shoes & Apparel

lululemon Wunder Train High-Rise Tight – these are my absolutely NEW favorite workout legging!!!  They stay put during all movements, look and feel great!  I got them in the brown camo pattern.

lululemon Align Pant – these are my go-to everyday legging that is so comfortable!  I love practicing yoga in them and have them in several lengths and colors because I wear them ALL THE TIME.

lululemon Men’s Pace Breaker Short – these are the shorts that Justin wears every single day.

lululemon Vinyasa Scarf Rulu – I wear this scarf a lot and you can wear it several different ways!  I have had mine for years and it still looks brand new.

Elation Camo ⅞ Tight from Athleta – this is a close second for me on my favorite workout tight.  The high rise is flattering for any body type and the camo print is one of my favorites.  

Bombas Socks – these are the ONLY socks I wear and I love their mission.  For every pair of socks purchased they donate a pair of socks.  How wonderful is that???

Seriously once you start wearing these socks you won’t want to wear anything else.  My favorite are the ankle socks. CLICK HERE to shop and receive 25% OFF your purchase.  

Healthy Human Water Bottle – I use this water bottle every day.  Healthy Human has so many fun designs and colors and different sizes for your hydration needs.

Nike Metcon Training Shoes for Women – We love these Nike Metcon training shoes for the cross-training workouts that we do.  It is important to have the right type of shoes for your training.  You don’t want to be wearing running or walking shoes for strength training.

Nike Metcon Training Shoes for Men – Here is the same shoe for men.

Skin Care

Beautycounter’s Charcoal Cleansing Bar – this bar is formulated with Binchotan charcoal powder to help detoxify and absorb impurities in the skin without drying it out, resulting in a smoother, brighter complexion.  This gentle formula can be used daily on your face.  This is what keeps me from breaking out and this bar will last you about 6 months!

Beautycounter One Step Make-up Remover Wipes – These are must-have for the fitness enthusiast.  Remove makeup and cleanse your skin in one step.  This super-soft wipe traps makeup, dirt, and impurities, then gently whisks it away with no need to rinse.  Gentle enough to use daily, oil-free, and no added fragrance.  These are also great for the teen or the person who wants a quick and easy solution to cleansing their face.

Beautycounter Clean Deo – a non-toxic deodorant that actually works.  They are also refillable reducing the amount of plastic you use.  This is the ONLY non-toxic deodorant with baking soda that doesn’t give me a rash or red bumps under my arms.
