With 2026 already here, now is great time to upgrade your workout equipment if you workout at home! Working out from home is a great way to stay in shape if you’re not able or prefer not to go to the gym. With a young child at home, I love having the option of working out from home. Exercise in general is also so good for your health and it feels so good to feel strong!

When it comes to preparing for your home workouts, Target has so many great, affordable options for workout essentials. Almost all of my workout equipment is from Target. In this post, I’ve rounded up my favorite exercise essentials. Personally, I focus on mostly strength training in my workouts, but there are also great options if you prefer other forms of exercise.
