If you're training from home I would say a foam roller, band/tube set (depending on your level of fitness) and a swiss ball is a good start.

Therefore we have all moved away from the commercial environment and into freelance, which gives the freedom to work in a setting that suits the needs of the individual client. The important word here is Personal. You should never see a trainer using the same programme for more than one client, as each person is unique and has unique wants, needs and goals.
