Ever since quarantine hit, many people, including myself, have started working out at home. When my mother-in-law moved out, we now have the whole downstairs to ourselves again, and we created a home gym! My list of At Home Gym Must Have Gear will hopefully help you out and get you motivated! We are SO excited! For the past year, I have been buying items to put in our home gym. So far, so good! My oldest son will be using it the most since we are the ones that work out daily.
At Home Gym Must Have Gear
From workout gear to fitness clothing, muscle recovery products, and more, I have a wonderful list of at-home gym must-haves for you below!
Creative Sensemore Air: Sensitive Hear More Buds
The new Sensemore technology helps to address the oft-annoying inconvenience associated with earbuds – because they are in-ear and block out much of the aural environment, users tend to remove their earbuds in various everyday situations, for example when starting a conversation. This changes with the Creative Sensemore Air, as users are given full control over the level of environmental sounds they want to hear.
With Sensemore Mode, which is 5 times more sensitive than Ambient Mode, users can hear much more speech, and other environmental elements, which are amplified with higher clarity. As a bonus, when set to a higher intensity, it could even benefit folks with mild hearing deficiencies.
The Ambient Mode can be used when users would like to hear their music well while still being aware of the environment.
Featuring a pocket-friendly charging case that is much smaller than the rest of Creative’s true wireless lineup, Creative Sensemore Air is easily the most portable model. Despite the smaller size, it retains the strong battery life that has become the series hallmark – up to 10 hours on a single charge, and 35 hours in total with the charging case. These retail for only $79.99 and you can purchase them on their site!
POWERHANDZ POWERFIT Training Gloves
POWERHANDZ POWERFIT Training Gloves are fingerless and have weight strategically distributed across the top side of the gloves, along with a grip material on the palm that is reinforced with foam gel padding.
These gloves are suitable for any type of fitness training: weight-lifting, cross-training, cycling, and general workouts. The weight resistance on the gloves improves strength, while the foam gel provides protection from calluses and blisters.
*Suitable for weight-lifting, weighted training, cross-training, power-lifting, pull-ups & general workouts, bodybuilding, cycling, etc.
*Foam Gel provides protection from calluses and blisters
*Weight resistance on the gloves improves strength in the hand and arm muscles
*Four-way nylon stretch fabric provides durability and flexibility during movement
I received a pair of the POWERHANDZ POWERFIT Weighted Training Gloves for my son who workouts daily. He loves them! They are a great addition to his home gym. He received a size medium and they fit him perfectly. They have a bit of stretch to them so the weighted gloves are snug yet comfortable. My son uses these weighted workout gloves during his workouts and has noticed a significant change in his hand strength.
The weighted fitness gloves retail for $44.99 and come in small, medium, large, X-large, XX-large, and XXX-large. You can easily reference the size chart image to help decide what size best fits your needs.
SOLEX
The first item I want to talk about is SOLEX. This is so important to have in your home gym or in your home if you work out regularly. Even if you don’t work out regularly SOLEX can help with so many things!
SOLEX® Posture Corrector + Roller allows the spine to return to its optimal position for absolute function to nurture better circulation, deep breathing, and relaxation, pain reduction, increase mobility, improve sleep and digestion, aid in recovery, enhance mood, and boost confidence with a stellar Posture! There are SO many benefits to using SOLEX.
Dr. Aman Dhaliwal has created a solution to your back pain! As a Doctor of Physical Therapy for 15 years, she encountered countless cases of shoulder, neck, and back pain caused by poor posture and muscular imbalances. The SOLEX Posture Roller is her innovative solution, made to bring the spine back to its natural alignment in just a few minutes of lying down, benefiting the body on many levels. This is definitely a must-have product to keep in your home gym. I know I can’t live without mine now.
The SOLEX retails for $89.99
SetForSet
SetForSet was created to help you achieve your highest level of performance by providing kick-butt unconventional training equipment and functional fitness workouts. I received their 3-band bundle and a 10lb steel mace.
3 Band Workout Bundle: At Home Gym Must Have Gear
Set For Set’s Power Bands provide an effective and efficient way to improve your overall physical performance. You can place them perfectly in your very own home gym to increase the intensity of your home workout.
Yellow – 10 to 35 Pounds 1/2″ (Lowest resistance)
Black – 30 to 60 Pounds 3/4″
Blue – 40 to 80 Pounds 1.25″
The 3-band workout bundle retails for only $14.95. You can buy them HERE.
10lb Steel Mace
I have never seen anything like this before and it is really cool! I had to watch a video to learn how to use it so I did it properly and didn’t hurt myself. These start at 7lbs and go all the way up to 30lbs! Steel Maces are forged from steel, sporting an expertly crafted head that is welded onto the knurled steel grip handle; our steel maces are virtually indestructible.
The Steel Mace or “Gada” was originally used as a deadly weapon in warfare by Hindu and Persian warriors in the 13th century. Due to its functionality and ease of use, Pelwhani wrestlers started using the Macebell for physical training. Nowadays, the steel mace is rapidly becoming known as the ‘ultimate full-body conditioning tool‘.
The mace holds almost the entirety of its weight in the ball head, which results in uneven weight distribution. Because of this, steel mace exercises engage smaller stabilizing muscles around our joints. This kind of offset training will increase your core & rotational strength and athletic performance tenfold.
The Steel Maces start at $27.95 and go up from there. You can purchase them HERE.
Balanced Body
Balanced Body also has more than 50 free workouts and “mini-workout” breaks, with mindful movement videos you can do at home, and affordable product bundles to re-energize your workout space at home or on the go. Balanced Body has some really great fitness products that are a must-have for your home gym!
I received these from Balanced Body:
SmartBell
Balanced Body 3lb hand weights
Ultra-Fit Circle® Mini
The SmartBell is a powerhouse of tools for both strength and core training exercises. SmartBell also does double-duty as a stretch and release tool. Great for group classes and for workouts at home. It is uniquely shaped to carve through space in flowing, rotational movements.
The two-handed grip allows a high level of control while conforming to your body, and when physical challenges call for holding it with both hands. The extended flowing movements stretch and tone your whole body or targeted muscle groups. They retail for $20.
SmartBell is available in two weights and several colors:
1.5 lb (0.7kg)
• Green
• Purple
• Gray
• Blue
• Pink*
Balanced Body 3lb hand weights: At Home Gym Must Have Gear

Ultra-Fit Circle® Mini
Lightweight with comfortable inner/outer handles, our wildly popular Ultra-Fit Circle is also available in a smaller size! We’ve trimmed it by 3” in diameter and the resistance is lighter. The result? A ring that is perfect for smaller body types, beginners, and when it’s important to achieve better leg alignment. 12” (30cm) outside diameter.
- Perfect for smaller body types and narrow shoulders.
- Easier lower bodywork due to smaller size.

Fabric Booty Bands
Every home gym needs some fabric booty bands! I love these because they are SO much harder to use with your workouts, meaning they are GOOD to use! I feel the burn so much quicker when I use my booty bands.
These Adelyn Active Booty Bands are perfect for your butt. Doing squats and lunges themselves won’t get you this level of results as when you use these resistance bands.

The Backmate relieves pain by calming the nervous system and blocking pain signals to the brain while also stimulating soft tissue health and increasing circulation and range of motion. This is great to use after a hard workout too! That is why this is on my list of At-Home Gym Must-Haves!
This is easy to set up! You put it in a door frame and use it. When you are finished with it, you can EASILY take it down and store it away! I love how easy it was to set up and take down when you are done with it!
I received the Backmate a few days ago, set it up, and have been using it ever since. My oldest son used it first and the lower back pain he was having constantly, is completely gone. I know he is young, but he was SO happy with the results from using Backmate ONE time! I used it too and it feels SO good on my lower back! I also have a lot of neck pain and using it on my neck felt really good.
