We love to see celebrities training in their home gym but we didn’t anticipate that we would need one for ourselves too. Its been around four months since the gyms have been closed down and people have now adjusted to home workout routines. Although having a gym setup is not necessary and even basic equipment around can help you achieve your goals.
Keeping gym equipment at home and making a mini gym is suggested if you have space as it is much safer than going out. Even if the gyms reopen, it is not completely safe to share the same space with many people at the same time.
These equipment are multipurpose and can be used to train various muscle groups and do not require much space. You can also stack them in a corner and take them out as per your need.
Here is a list of equipment that you can use to set up your mini gym at home.

These bands can help you train your back, legs, arms, and shoulders. Use these bands to improve your strength as well.
