Exercise Ball
A stability ball is a cheap but extremely versatile fitness equipment that you can use in your room. What makes it so useful is that performing the exercises are more difficult since you have to keep your balance and the stability of your body. This way more muscles are engaged, especially your core muscles. For example, if you the push-ups by placing your legs on ball, it is much harder to press yourself up. Sitting on the ball is also great for your spine health. They are also pretty cheap!

Resistance Bands
Do not underestimate the efficiency and versatility of the exercise bands. The advantage of using bands is that your muscles are worked not only when you pull them, but when you let them back to the starting position. Plus, they are excellent tools to add extra resistance to you cardio workouts as well. Usually, they are sold in a bundle with different resistance levels and it only costs a few bucks.
Pull up Bar
If you have such a small space that it is impossible to have a power tower, then the best alternative is the doorway pull up bar. You can quickly install one on the top of the doorframe and do the mentioned bodyweight exercises except for the dips. The professional models provide different grips positions, and the maximum weight capacity is about 300 pounds. If you are interested in getting one, have a look at our door gym!

MMA fighters and boxers use the jump rope almost each of their workouts. And there is a good reason for that. This small workout equipment boosts your cardio and endurance and helps to burn tons of calories in little time.
