From my personal experiences and my honest opinion, the only exercise equipment you should really have is yourself. Using your own body weight to build muscles is the absolute best and natural way to do it. Not only is it more effective, but it cost less than if you were to go out and buy exercise equipment, like a weight bench, free weights, or premium machines like the Bowflex or the Crossbow. Using your own body weight to build muscles, stamina and endurance is FREE. The only real cost is your time and dedication - and both of those things come easy as well when you use your own body weight instead of complicated weights.
You don’t need all that expensive equipment to get the results you want. All you need is a solid workout plan that you can follow each and everyday - using your body weight. It’s also much easier to do body-weight exercises and you can do them anywhere you are.
Back when I used to use weights, I would either have to take them on trips, or leave them home and just take a few days off from training. But ever since I started using these powerful body-weight exercises that are MORE EFFECTIVE than weights could ever be, I’ve had no problem doing them each and everyday - no matter where I am.
So not only are natural body weight exercises free of cost, but they’re also “portable”, allowing you to do them anywhere and anytime. No need to adjust the weight or resistance of a machine. The best workout exercise equipment has been with you your entire life. Use it.
