Compact Equipment
Citysports Under-Desk Treadmill ($179.99, shop here)
This under-desk treadmill was designed for small spaces. Not only is it small enough to be stored under a desk, bed, or sofa, but it has built-in transport wheels to make moving it much easier. It may look simple, but the LED screen tracks your speed, distance, time, steps, and calories.
Best Choice 3-Piece Kettlebell Set ($49.99, shop here)
Kettlebells are an excellent investment if you have limited space because they can fit just about anywhere. Not sure where to start? There are a ton of free YouTube videos that will walk you through workouts. Our only recommendation is to have a full-body mirror nearby to monitor your form.
Sunny Health and Fitness Compact Rowing Machine ($129.99, shop here)
This lightweight, compact rowing machine may look simple, but it has 12 resistance levels and a digital monitor equipped with time, count, count total, calories, and scan functions.
Sunny Health & Fitness Total Body Step Machine ($87.99, shop here)
If you’re looking for a low-impact way to target your core, glutes, arms, and shoulders, look no further than this mini stepper. The stepper alone allows you to work out just about anywhere, but you can also use the two resistance bands to engage over 20 muscles for a more intense workout.
Xterra Fitness Folding Exercise Bike ($179.99, shop here)
This foldable exercise bike offers eight levels of resistance; tracks and displays speed, distance, time, calories, and pulse; and only takes up 18×18 inches of floor space when not in use.
