AMAZING EXERCISE TOOLS & SOME WAYS (WORKOUTS) TO USE THEM

PRO TIP-Some of the stuff I link out to on Amazon goes out of stock on occasion. If you click on a link and the product says ‘currently unavailable’ then you can scroll down and find similar products (that are in stock).

DUMBBELLS (YES! WOMEN NEED THESE!)

Light dumbbells (like these pink 3 lb. DB’s) have a place (for beginners and high rep routines targeting smaller muscle groups) but if you exercise regularly you’ll need heavier dumbbells. 

Using the link you’ll see 3, 5, 8, 10, 12 and 15 lb. colored weights.  The ones I use the most often are 10-15 lbs. but I also use my 20, 25 and 30 lb. dumbbells for certain exercises.

PRO TIP-Make sure you buy these in pairs!

Check out the price on these dumbbells!

PULL UP BAR

Check out the price for this pull up bar!

PUSH UP STANDS

I use these for every workout with push-ups.  You get deeper range of motion and it’s easier on your wrists than push-ups on the floor.

If this style is out of stock then try and find a different style that do NOT swivel. Most women don’t need that swivel. (It puts extra strain on the wrists and makes an exercise that’s already difficult almost impossible–and dangerous.)

Shop Power Stands!

AEROBIC STEP

This tool is a gamechanger for most women’s home exercise programs (and my favorite piece of equipment).

These come in pink, blue or red and you can buy them with 4 or 6 risers.

Shop for your own gym-sized aerobic step now!

ANKLE WEIGHTS

Shop for these ankle weights.

A WORKOUT WHERE YOU CAN USE THOSE ANKLE WEIGHTS

Go buy the Butts and Guts workout now!

SLIDERS/GLIDERS

These are super fun but do take a little bit of coordination. These are my favorite style to use on carpet.

Check out the price of these gliders (these are made to be used on carpet).

FITNESS TUBING

Go shop fitness tubing now.

AN EXERCISE BAND

If you’re not sure which tension to buy then start with medium.

Check out the price on resistance bands.

A WORKOUT YOU CAN DO WITH THAT EXERCISE BAND

Go see the price on this Cathe Friedrich workout!

EXERCISE LOOP

Shop for an exercise loop now!

A STABILITY BALL

For most women a 55 cm size is a good place to start. Go up a size if you’re over 5’4″.

Check out the price for a stability ball.

A MEDICINE BALL

I recommend a 6 or 8 lb. ball for most women (you don’t need to buy them in pairs).

Shop for a medicine ball now.

A BARBELL

This barbell holds up to 65 lbs.  It’s been a great barbell for my own home exercise routine (I do a lot of high rep routines with lighter weight).  It’s perfect for most women who workout at home.

Check out the price on this barbell.
