Workout equipment
This part will have some basic workout equipment as well as some non basic things to help you on your fitness journey
I personally have one of these and couldn't recommend it enough for the amount of space it saves as well as the convience of it being able to be placed everywhere. The incline is the absolute key to making this stand apart from other walking pads.
Walking Pad Treadmill
Now these are the higher end adjustable dumbbells for lifters like myself who need options that go up to weight that you can actually use and not feel like you're wasting your time. I'm aware they're more high priced than the other option on this lis...
Powerblock Dumbbells
This is the lower priced dumbbell option I would go with if you're just starting out. Now with the price, they are going to be a bit less stable than the other Powerblock option, however, if you're just starting off and don't want to break the bank, ...
Hex Dumbbell Set With Rack
Now I have a couple of power racks on this list, but this here is a combination of most of the things on this list. If you have the space and the budget, and don't feel like “piece mealing” everything out, then this is a no brainer. With this, you'll...
Power Rack with all the fixins
Now if you just need a rack to place your barbell up on, you don't need anything too fancy, you just need a rack. With this, you can't go wrong. Place it in your garage, a room, wherever. It doesn't require much space, or much of anything to get toge...
Cap Barbell Deluxe
Can't get anymore simple than this. I like this option because it allows for you to still hit quad extensions as well as hamstring curls with a lil fanagelin'. Easy way to start your journey
Weight Bench
Can't go too wrong with a barbell, but I will say I'm a little biased. I've always lifted with Olympic standard barbells only because it made lifting between different gyms and locations just that much easier as my fitness journey got deeper.
Barbell
Keeping in line with the “Olympic” standard, I'm a sucker for bumper plates over the iron weights I started out on. The standardized sizes help keep your form on certain lifts, and you won't have to worry about them getting rusted or chipped and thro...
Weight Set - Exercise & Fitness Equipment
This is a great barbell to have for curls and skullcrushers. Definitely not a necessity, however it just helps to have.
EZ-Curl Barbell
This bad boy here is great for deadlift, shrugs, and explosive movements. Many people prefer this type of bar for the hand position alone, and I can't say that I deny that it's much more comfortable to deadlift on this. Not a full replacement for you...
Trap Bar
Now wait! I know what you're saying, “why the hell is he putting this expensive thing on the list?!” I know, but please bear with me here. This thing is fantastic. As a big man who hates to run, the cushion of the tread alone saving my joints while I...
Peloton Treadmill
Ok, here's a treadmill that's very beginner friendly. It does everything you need a treadmill to do, however it comes with an app that lets you track your progress, as well as be able to play some music and watch a show while you workout. Not quite a...
SYTIRY Treadmills for Home
This is the rack that I started with in my garage gym. It's able to mount to the wall and fold up so we could still park the cars in the garage, and honestly I could still workout with cars in there with no real issue. It's a no brainer if you're try...
JELENS Folding Squat Rack
Resistance bands are great for everything. Warm ups, workouts, stretching, everything! These are a no brainer to grab
Heavy Resistance Bands 300LBS with Handles
Healthy food prep utilities
Help yourself prep and stay solid through a diet!
We've been trying our best to cut out any sort of toxins in our cooking. Unfortunately our air fryer was apparently on the chopping block. After switching to this, we've noticed that the glass container actually helps crisp up the chicken during our ...
Ninja Crispi 4-in-1 Portable Glass Air Fryer
Juicers are a tough one since everybody is ALWAYS looking for one they don't have to clean out. I'm gonna tell you now, you're gonna have to clean em. I will say though, this model here is pretty good at separating pulp efficiently and without much h...
Canoly C16 Cold Press Juicer
MEAL PREP MEAL PRE MEAL PREP! I will always scream this from the top of my lungs. Meal prepping will not only help you stay on top of whatever diet you have, but it'll save you so much money if you know what you're buying and plan it out in advance! ...
M MCIRCO 30pcs Glass Food Storage Containers
Look, if you're like me and you're on the move a lot for work, this thing is a lifesaver. Being able to bring food from home and know that you can have a hot meal for lunch that's not eating out or having a burger, is a game changer. Before you think...
Docusvect Rechargeable Heated Lunch Box
Protein is protein, and you NEED it while working out. I love this stuff and I've been using it for years. I've tried plenty, and I have to admit, this stuff still tastes ok. There are better tasting proteins out there, but honestly, this one has bee...
Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Whey
This is a protein option for my vegan friends. It's a solid protein and I have some friends who swear by it. they say it's a great alternative that's lighter on their stomach, so if you're somebody with a more sensitive gut, this may be the thing tha...
NAKED nutrition Naked Pea Protein Isolate
Supplements
Some supplements that I can attest are actually helpful
I take this daily to help with bone density and immune support. Just think, you're beating your body daily while working out, it needs some help
Sports Research® Vitamin D3 + K2 w/ Coconut Oil
Gotta say, this is one of the first fish oil supplements that I've ever taken that doesn't give me the fish burps. Omegas are great for your joints, brain fog, and overall just helps your gut.
Sports Research Triple Strength Omega 3 Fish Oil
I prefer my fiber supplement in powder form, this way I can drink it with a protein shake. Even if you think you're getting enough fiber, you likely aren't. Especially when you're upping your protein intake
Micro Ingredients Organic Triple Fiber Powder
Now I gotta admit, I take this for my hair(gotta keep the locs right), nails, and skin. While lifting and working out, you're gonna be sweating and banging up your hands. Keep things on the up and up while you're doing that.
Solgar Chelated Zinc, 250 Tablets - Skin
I've found this helps me with my gut biome as well as sustainable energy levels. It's just become a standard for me to pop about 8 of these daily.
