Home Gym Essentials

Want to build a custom home gym but not sure where to start? Even here at Reymma Fitness, you’ll find more home gym equipment than you could ever possibly use! So where to start?

Building a home gym, no matter what size, space, or type of workout you’re completing, is an investment. You want to make sure that you’re investing in equipment that you’ll use, day after day, year after year. 

5 Essential Pieces of Home Gym Equipment

Barbell

Weight training builds agility, helps to avoid injury from falls, and builds strength. It has a wide range of benefits, and the barbell is the essential item for your weight training home gym! You can find affordable barbells, but it’s important to purchase a quality barbell for your gym. A cheap barbell will chip and crack, tearing up your hands and making it hard to grip the bar.

Shop barbells.

Squat Rack

A quality squat rack will probably be your biggest investment for your custom home gym, but it protects your body and should last you forever. Your rack is what allows you to get your barbell into position for your lifts, and without it, you won’t be able to squat or press heavy weights. If you’re training alone in your home gym, your squat rack is also your spotter when you include safety and spotting devices. Racks also typically have integrated pullup bars.

Shop rigs and racks.

Weight Plates

You have your barbell and rack, but you can’t lift without a set of weight plates. You have the top three essential gym items with these three items and can start lifting big in your custom home gym. You’ll need to decide on the type of plates you want and how many you need to get. Here at Reymma Fitness, we have a variety of bumper plates and competition plates to choose from. 

Shope weight plates.

Bench

A bench expands your options for lifting while also keeping your body in a safe position for performing exercises. A bench allows you to bench press; you can also perform supported dumbbell rows and other dumbbell exercises. An adjustable bench gives you flexibility as well as space-saving for those with smaller home gyms. 

Shop weight benches.

Kettlebell

If you only have space for one piece of weight training equipment, get a kettlebell! You can perform a ton of different exercises, such as swings, get-ups, presses, snatches, and more. 

Shop kettlebells and dumbbells

Battle Rope

Along with your weight lifting and resistance training, it’s important to incorporate some cardio, and nothing does that faster than battle ropes.
