Commonly found household items can easily serve as good alternatives to gym equipment. For example, filled water bottles make great dumbbells! You can start with smaller 500ml bottles before moving on to 1L or 1.5L bottles. You can do biceps curls, triceps kickbacks, and even do some overhead presses with water bottles. Dry towels are another great addition to helping you get a workout in. Use them to stretch out before/after an exercise. To add a challenge, you could use a damp towel too.
