1. Powerblocks, or dumbbells. Something like this: [**https://amzn.to/4bVXWRO**](https://amzn.to/4bVXWRO)

2. Physio bands or access to a cable machine (preferred). If buying bands, we suggest something like this: [**https://amzn.to/3Y7oAnq**](https://amzn.to/3Y7oAnq)

3. A medicine ball for Phase 3 of the program. Something around 10lbs will work for most people. See here: <https://amzn.to/4f7xQhi>

4. A lacrosse ball for releases and throws. See here: <https://amzn.to/4fb48b9>

5. A barbell, plates, and a rack would be ideal (rack for hanging and inverted rows). I don't have a rack linked here, but a barbell like this along with the pull up bar in #6 would work great: <https://amzn.to/3Yg5dZe>

6. A pull up bar or a rack to hang from: <https://amzn.to/4f8TQIM>

7. An adjustable bench will be handy. Something like this: <https://amzn.to/3Ltcnll>

8. Sliders will be helpful for some of the exercises. Our favourite brand is "Valslide". You could also use a towel on a slippery floor. These will also work: <https://amzn.to/3WpkYfb>

9. Navigate to [https://ancoretraining.com/ ](https://ancoretraining.com/)if you want something better than bands (more tension, better progression) but don't have access to a gym with cable machines.

Here's a suggested list for the items you'll need for Shoulder Foundations. Most gyms have all the equipment you will need, but if you are building up a home gym, use this list. The program *can* be done with modifications and less equipment than this, but for best results do consider a full gym set up.
