Dumbbells
You didn’t think we’d forget about this hallmark did you? Well if you want to have your own home gym then it’s probably best that you have some dumbbells on the menu. More than any other tool on this list dumbbells are important pieces of equipment that are great because of the diversity of movements that can be utilized. You can supplement barbell movements with dumbbells and though you won’t be hauling as much weight, you’ll still be able to get the pump you need. Dumbbells are versatile and are great for exercises that require compound movements such as flyes and side laterals. If you can get nothing else, make sure you have some dumbbells at home.
