Psst — you don't need a whole home gym to get an effective workout in, and this compact "booty kicker" proves it.

Psst, if you want a mat — try this one. 

Promising review: "The item shipped quickly and came in one light weight box. The items are all great quality, the grip socks were very comfortable and strong grip for no slips. I love the package of the different levels of elastic bands, this keeps you from having to purchase them separately. Overall this product has been great and nice gift option. Perfect for those just starting out with Pilates and that may need some guidance as it comes with a beginners guide." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I wasn't sure what to expect, especially when I saw that I'd have to inflate this ball with a straw. It was remarkably easy to inflate (although it took a few tries to seal it without too much air escaping). It has the same look and feel of the Pilates ball that's used in the studio. It comes with a 'cheat sheet' and I do about 75% of the exercises. A nice addition to my home exercise routine." —Amazon Customer

It comes with resistance bands and has a weight capacity of up to 300 lbs. 

Promising review:  "Sturdy little unit. It will definitely work your cardio and quads. 10 minutes is tough and I'm in good shape. Balance is the tricky part but the straps help. I'm 100% sure balance will improve with use. Very nice addition to my workout." —DONALD R ELLIS JR

Promising review: "These are the same bands that I use at my physical therapy for my hips, legs and back. Definitely recommend. Very light weight with great workout resistance. Comes in a small plastic sealable bag for travel." —Chris Santor

NewMe Fitness is a small business creating high-quality fitness products for strength training, weight training, and yoga. The mat is 24 inches wide x 68 inches long and 5-mm thick! It's made with a moisture-wicking material that'll keep sweat at bay and is great for hot yoga, too.

Promising reviews: "I use this mat more than I ever took classes. Not sure if it is good for beginners, but if you have basic class instruction already, it gives you a great sequence of moves you are familiar with. Most I can do, a few I have never done." —Mng Parker

"This mat is great for a quick guide to various yoga poses. The length, thickness, and comfort make it a great purchase. I look forward to many future uses." —Baglady

Promising review: "This thing is awesome. I'm a small, not technical person, and managed to haul this thing up two flights of stairs (slowly), unbox, turn on, and even connect my phone to the Bluetooth in it. No assembly. Simple instructions. Distance and time measurements seem to be accurate, but the 'calories' might be missing a decimal point. No squealing or groaning under my walking. Not too loud. Slides right under my bed. Didn't need to adjust the belt, though the tool to do so is included. The packaging says to oil every 30 hours. The remote is needed to make the treadmill function. It is extremely cheap — like dollar-store cheap. I hope the company has a remote replacement for if/when the remote bites it. Even still, I would 100% buy this again. Great treadmill!" —Crowells

Get it from Amazon for $284.99+ (available in two colors).

The weights are covered with a sweatproof, skin-friendly silicone layer that's comfortable, and the adjustable elastic band helps you get the right fit. You can even remove weights as well if needed!

Promising review: "I love these! So great for yoga or mat Pilates. I like that they are 2 pounds each, which is the perfect weight, and you can even take off weight as well. I use them every week for my workouts. Very durable band as well!" —Robyn

Get a pair from Amazon for $24.09+ (available in three sizes and colors).

Promising review: "I'll be honest, I bought this on a whim and then didn't put it together for months. I almost returned it because I hadn't used it but I'm so glad I didn't. I LOVE THIS BARRE. I look forward to using it every day (and i really don't care to work out generally). It's so fun to use and you can find so many barre classes online for FREE. It's also super easy to fold up and store and for me, that's super important because I live in a tiny space. This is THE best workout tool." —Kathryn

Promising review: "I am very happy with this item. Looks good, easy to make lighter and heavier. Can also add more weight by adding some weights from the second one. Works great for my needs post-shoulder replacement. Takes up a small amount of space." —Jeffrey Maen

Stealth Fitness is a small business that specializes in unique at-home fitness equipment. 

Here's what BuzzFeeder Mallory Mower says about this gizmo: "Getting a Stealth board was the very best thing that has happened to me during quarantine. Mixing the fun of games on your phone with the natural endorphins you get from exercising is, to put it lightly, genius. I have two in my home, and my husband and I compete daily to see who can last the longest. My favorite game is the paragliding challenge; he's into the planet-blasting space adventure. Nerd."

Promising review: "Fantastic purchase to solve the boring plank exercises after a year of doing them. This has a quick, easy, simple hit-it-and-forget-it daily with a game, three-minute max, and great results. Much improved core strength, reduce lower back pain, and a high five from my doctor. Highly recommend this for those in need of core buildup and help to manage the time to fit this into a daily schedule." —James Corey

Get it from Amazon for $149 (available in two styles). 

Not about dumbbells? No worries, because there are other exercise card decks that focus on bodyweight movements, gym equipment, and resistance bands.

Promising review: "I bought these to get some new ideas to mix up my gym routine. I got a lot of new ideas from these cards. Some were reminders of ones I already know, but there are a bunch of really interesting ones that I've been mixing in. The countless combinations you can create is making my workouts more fun and motivating." —Paisley

Get it from Amazon for $20.99 (available in 19 volumes).

Promising review: "It should come as no surprise that I bought this thanks to a TikTok influencer, and honestly, I'm glad I did. I wanted a way to exercise that was both fun and did not include going into a gym, and a jump rope seemed the perfect solution. I love the counter, that was the draw, but it also counts your calories and the amount of time that you've spent jumping to track your progress. I will say jumping rope is not as easy as I remember as a child, but I'm excited to continue using this product and get better and better at it. Definitely worth the purchase." —Nicole Osti

Read more about the potential benefits of rebounding exercise! 

Promising reviews: "Before I got this trampoline I was using a dinky rebounder that had springs, and let me tell you, the bungee chords on these trampolines make such a big difference! I wasn't expecting it to feel so much softer (and its quieter too)! I've been consistently using this rebounder 1–2x a week for over a year and it is still in such great condition. If you want to experience all the cardiovascular benefits of activities like running, but your body doesn't like all that impact, definitely try out rebounding. It's such a great way to not only get in your cardio, but strengthen your muscles." —Katrina Falor

"Exercise has never been so much fun. I use it every day! Excellent product, really happy with it. It’s very versatile, helps with balance and coordination, love it! And it’s quiet, so my downstairs neighbor is not annoyed. I purchased the 48”, so glad I did so I can do jumping jacks, etc." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $280 (available in four colors).

Reviewers recommend purchasing separate mounting hardware for best results.

Promising review: "I’ve missed being able to go to my trapeze yoga class regularly, so I’ve been looking for a good setup for my home. This product was easy to install and so far so good." —Chelsea Spalding

Get it from Amazon for  $40.49+ (available in three colors). 

Promising review: "This hoop is GREAT! It is just so much fun to exercise with this thing. I play music and try to dance too lol. But I have experience, they used to have a weighted hoop in the gym I went to and I did it all the time. Highly recommend. You just need to make sure it's clicked together correctly or it'll come undone! Don't worry if it happens to you, though, it's totally fixable. It happened to me I think twice before I got it down. Anyway, if you're looking for a weighted hoop, look no more!" —Molls

Promising review: "It’s great! Easy to assemble. The price was very reasonable. I’ve read that static hanging is so good for your shoulders and back. I love that it’s there and easy to use throughout the day. It feels very sturdy and high quality." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (also available in a kit with resistance bands).

Promising review: "Abs straps are good. I like how the carabiners are offset so they don't scratch or mark your rack where you hang them. The padding is hit or miss. At first, the padding hurt my arms. After I got used to using them, they fit more comfortably." —Dennis

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in 14 colors/prints).

Here's how to get it set up: remove the plug, push the circular button to open it, pour in one of the included Tidal Tank color dyes, then pour in the amount of water you'd like to fill it up with, push the button to close it, and pump air in with the included pump! 

It also comes with an instruction guide and access to the Tidal Tank app.

Promising review: "I really like how versatile this bag is. While you are performing movements, the water moving around inside adds dynamic force, causing you to engage your core and use more muscle fibers to remain steady throughout the movement. Easy to fill, easy to pump. A great product overall. It's a great addition to my training tools." —David

Get it from Amazon for $69 (available in four styles).

Promising review: "I absolutely love this!!! I have been trying to get motivated to get up and work out. This is fun and easy to do. The price is very reasonable. I like using this during commercial breaks. It takes zero time to set up, and is super effective. I can already see a difference and have only had it a couple of weeks." —Christopher Hancock

Promising reviews: "I absolutely love my UpCircleSeven Yoga Wheel. Before I purchased, I researched many different wheels and decided to choose this one. Let me tell you, I am not disappointed. This wheel has assisted me in so many yoga poses and has helped me to even strengthen my inversions. I am also a private yoga instructor and this wheel even assists me in my classes; whether beginner or advanced, this wheel serves an amazing purpose every time." —Jahnee

Promising review: "My teenagers are making good use of these foam rollers. It is awesome that the set comes with so many different rollers! My son is using the smaller roller and the ball to help with his plantar fasciitis, and my daughter is using the larger roller to help with her upper back. They both feel the rollers are the perfect firmness and report that they are easy to use. They are happy to be experiencing pain relief, and I'm happy to have only had to purchase one kit." —P.
