    Set that alarm, drink that water, and get that workout in.

    1. Resistance bands you won't have to worry about slipping or sliding with their anti-slip material. These are perf for squats and lunges for toning that 🍑.

    2. A smart hula hoop to bring you back to the middle school playground. Strengthen your core with this new and improved version that features a gravity ball with added weight.

    3. A gallon water bottle so you can ensure you're staying perfectly hydrated all day. I mean, who doesn't love some motivational phrases to get you to up your water intake?

    4. An adjustable stepping machine in case you're foregoing that gym membership but still want to do some sweet cardio from the comfort of your own home.
