Started working from home and realized I hadn't done a single pull up since high school gym class. My arms were noodles, my posture was wrecked from hunching over a laptop, and I kept saying I'd go to the gym ‘tomorrow.’ Bought a doorframe pull up bar on impulse, hung it in the hallway to my kitchen, and started doing a few reps every time I passed through. Three months later my back pain is gone and I actually have visible arm definition for the first time in my adult life.

Living in a 500 sq ft apartment and trying to work out is like doing yoga in a phone booth. If you've been scrolling for gym equipment that won't destroy your rental deposit or take up your entire living room, I spent six months testing stuff in my cramped one-bedroom so you can skip the returns.

Basic but important gym essentials for all the girlies! From workout sets to water bottles.

Every summer I was basically a human flotation device — two kids hanging off my neck while I tried not to drown myself. Regular pool noodles kept slipping, arm floaties gave a false sense of security, and swim lessons alone weren't cutting it. If you're the parent standing in 4 feet of water with a death grip on your kid's stomach, these kickboards and swim aids actually helped mine build real confidence. Took me three summers and a lot of wasted money to land on this lineup.

Spent two seasons feeling like the slowest person at every pickup game. Tried running more miles, didn't help. Turns out I needed to train my feet, not just my lungs.

I dream of having a home gym one day. These are the items I would love to have in there. There are so many options to do a home workout and sometimes it's more convenient.

Running, squatting, chasing your kid across a playground. If you've ever tugged at your shorts mid-stride wondering if you're flashing someone, you already know the struggle.

Everything I own and use for skiing in my second season! All approved by my lifelong skier boyfriend.

Nothing kills a warrior pose faster than your hands slipping forward and face-planting into cheap foam. I went through six mats in two years — some too thin, some that smelled like a tire factory, most that got slippery the second I broke a sweat. If you're tired of readjusting mid-flow and don't want to spend $100+ on a mat, this is everything I actually kept after testing way too many.

I’m still an amateur pickle baller, 4.0 (ish), but I am really invested in this sport! I’m a very competitive person, but I also enjoy just casually playing with friends and family when we’re not doing league games. As I’ve started taking the game more and more serious, I’ve really dove in to brands, gear, and accessories to make myself and my game better. These are all the items that me and my crew use on our pickleball journey and I hope that these things work out as well for you as they have for me!

I can get a little extra movement in walking on the walking pad, or even cycling on the Peloton with an attached laptop tray. A small weight rack tucked behind the bike makes a decent amount of free weights easily accessible throughout the day, too! It is possible to have office and gym together, even in a small space. Let me show you!
