Spring is quickly approaching, and for many, it means the pressure is on to get in shape for summer and upcoming events like vacations and wedding season. Getting to the gym can be difficult for many of us who live busy lives. Rain and cold weather also make it hard to leave our homes to head to the gym. If you’re struggling to make it to the gym, but are looking for ways to get moving this season, it may be time to invest in some home gym equipment.
Home gyms can be added to your house even with limited space. All you need is equipment and a designated room or corner, and you can sweat, stretch, and get snatched without leaving your home.
If you’re looking for fitness inspiration, you should be following these five fitness influencers:

Home Gym Storage Rack With Hanging Hooks
After working out in your home gym, ensure the room stays organized with a storage rack. This rack is durable and made with high-quality powder-coated finish steel. It can hold up to 300 pounds. The finish protects the rack from scratches and damage, extending the life of the rack. The rack can store all your workout equipment and has three layers of metal selves, side hanging hooks for yoga equipment and gear, and three layers of metal shelves. It’s easy to assemble, and the top and middle shelves can easily be detached, giving you multiple choices for organizing your workout gear and equipment.
Puzzle Foam Mats
Non-slip waterproof mats are great for your home gym and help prevent injuries and slipping during workouts. The mat set can be used for yoga or gym equipment and are perfect for stretching. It’s versatile and can be used as a playroom for your crawling child, school, daycare, and more. The mats are made from environmentally friendly EVA material and are shock-absorbent and waterproof. You can purchase them in packs of 12, 16, or 24, which should only be used indoors. These mats are easy to clean — wipe them with a soft cloth and a gentle cleaner. These mats are perfect because you can add pieces as you move into bigger spaces and grow.
Dumbbell Set
Using weights is a great way to build strength, get your heart rate up and build muscle. Having a dumbbell set at home allows you to weight train without feeling intimidated in a crowded gym where some fitness enthusiasts might hog the weights section. This set includes a pair of 2-pound, 3-pound, 5-pound, 8-pound, and 10-pound rubber hex dumbbells. Included is an A-frame dumbbell rack to easily store your dumbbells and keep your home gym organized. The rubber prevents the dumbbells and rack from getting scratched. This set is great for maximizing space in your home gym. The vertical A-shape allows you to use your gym’s floor to store other necessities like mats and a stationary bike.
Door Anchor Strap for Resistance Bands Exercise
Resistance bands are a great way to sculpt and tone your body. This tool allows you to strap it over your home gym’s door and can be used for multiple exercises at home, such as foot kicking, stretching, back exercises, and more. The strap is easy to install and can be adjusted to fit different heights. The five anchors from the strap allow for various exercise modes. Different heights can also be used to accomplish different movements. This anchor strap can withstand up to 500 pounds and will stay fixed on your door with no nails or screws needed. It's a cost effective and easy way to get snatched from home.
Peloton Bike
Who needs to leave the house to cycle, when you can hop on a Peloton from the comfort of your home? This bike gives you an incredibly immersive indoor cycling experience. You’ll be able to stream daily live classes from the brand’s New York City studio. There’s also access to tons of classes on the Peloton app. From running and strength training to stretching and yoga, Peloton gives an experience like no other. The bike especially comes in handy on cold or rainy days when leaving your house to go to the gym is the last thing you want to do. This bike is the best way to get a full body workout and access to some of the best trainers in the world without leaving your home.
