Tools every home gym should start off with This is not a definitive guide, if you need an at home workout program, you can get my free home workout program here . Home workout program Equipment Stability ball A great way to work and challenge your core. Jump rope A jump rope is a must have, and super easy form of cardio. Resistance bands These can get kind of expensive, and save space. Inertia wave/Battle ropes The inertia wave is a more effective version of the battle ropes. However the traditional battle ropes are nice as well. Adjustable dumbbells A cheap and more effective alternative to just using solid non-adjustable dumbbells. Ab wheel A cheap and super effective way of working your core. Weight bench Pair with the adjustable squat rack, this is a match made in heaven. In terms of versatility. Pull up bars The best kind you can get is the one you can hook in to the door without having to actually install it, with tools. Bosu ball Perfect for training the core. Yoga mat Perfect for doing anything on the ground. Ab sliders Cheap and easy way to attack the core. Barbell and weights These can get expensive over time but definitely worth the investment. Adjustable squat rack Paired with the weight bench,  this is an excellent combo.
