I need a functional training set up, what equipment should I get?

Equipment which allows you to perform multi joint movements and involve as many muscle groups as possible is best. Kettlebells, Olympic weightlifting sets, battle ropes, plyometric boxes, slam balls are examples of equipment designed to train all of the major muscle groups. Those muscle groups including the arms, shoulders, back, core and legs are exercised together, making functional training a very efficient way of doing a total body workout in a short amount of time. Great gains in cardio vascular fitness can also be made by undertaking a functional training program.
