You can begin playing popular sports with minimal equipment and dedication, without breaking the bank.
Gymnastics
To make running, jumping, and stretching easier for adults interested in beginner's gymnastics, Dick's Sporting Goods offers women's Nike gymnast shorts in multiple color options.
Grips for gymnastics aid in holding onto bars and improving grip on the floor during training or competitions. They can also be utilized for weightlifting and other exercises. Both Amazon and Dick's Sporting Goods offer adult-sized grips designed for beginners.
Before gymnasts can perform on high bars and balance beams, they must practice extensively. To safely practice routines without the risk of falling, a floor training bar is a helpful tool. Additionally, a foldable floor mat can aid in practicing flips and jumps without causing injury to the feet.
Swimming
A swim cap is a must-have accessory for swimming, as it keeps your hair out of the pool and helps you swim more competitively. Amazon offers classic Speedo swim caps in a variety of colors and patterns, while Swim Outlet has tie-dyed swim cap options.
Swimming goggles are crucial for safety while swimming, and Amazon offers antifog goggles suitable for beginners. For professional swimmers, Swim Outlet has a range of high-quality goggles to choose from.
A racing or swimming suit is different from a standard swimsuit or beach suit, and is designed to help you swim faster through the water. Nike has a simple racing suit in various colors available at Swim Outlet. Tyr offers unique bathing suits with interesting colors and patterns.
Basketball
Playing basketball requires comfortable shoes, and while you can wear any pair of sneakers, basketball-specific shoes can help protect your ankles and feet.
Basketball shoes are available from Nike and New Balance, with Nike offering stylish and unique options and New Balance providing bright and comfortable shoes suitable for both men and women.
Track
Track and field running requires specialized shoes with spikes that grip the track surface. Affordable track shoes from Nike or cross-country shoes from Dick's Sporting Goods are suitable options.
Training for track and field involves more than just running as fast as possible; it also includes hurdles and other field events. Affordable speed training hurdle sets are available from both Amazon and Walmart.

Soccer
You can play soccer anywhere with a soccer ball, and Amazon offers Adidas soccer balls in various colors, while Walmart also has soccer ball options.
Shin guards are necessary when playing soccer to avoid getting kicked in the shins by someone wearing cleats. G-Form offers professional shin guards that are worn by pros, while Amazon has affordable options for beginners.
Both Amazon and Walmart offer a pop-up goal that is easy to set up and fold down when not needed.
