The Romans didn't have any exercise equipment. In the baths there were hot water tubs, cold water tubs, and a lounge area. People in ancient Rome didn't need to have equipment to exercise because they got plenty on a daily basis ( not like people today). They had to walk everywhere, do much more work to get daily chores done, reap, plant, grow crops, make candles, spin wool, feed animals, hand carry everything, push carts, and do what ever else they needed to get done. It required a lot more effort and physical ability than the people who sit around all day do today. Everything was made by hand.
