The only recommended equipment in this volume are a st of rings and paralletes. I tried to keep the excreises as low tech as possible since not everyone has the facilities or equipment to perform the progressions.
Some of the illustrated techniques may use a set of parallel bars or a singular bar such as a high bar. Any of the high bar movements can generally be substituted on the rings. Likewise, most of the parallel bar techniques can be substituted on the parallettes.
There are various rings sellers available online. Some of these are EXF Rings, Rogue Rings, Xtreme Rings, etc.. I believe Rogue also sells some high quality parallettes as well. There are also gymnastics suppliers that sell different equipment as well. There are also various guides on how to do it yourself with PVC pipe. One such example is here

The same is true with PVC parallettes:

Note that I only referenced two websites that have instructions on how to make this type of cquipment. There are other ways to make them which can be googled or seen on videos on youtube. The most common search term to bring up the guides is "do it yourself" before PVC rings or PVC paralletes.
Rings can be mounted on a tree outside or inside in various places. I have scen them successfully used on a doorway pullup bar. Some people have put into their ceiling hanging them from cross beams. The good thing about parallettes is that they can be used anywhere. Also, a wall may be useful for some of the progressions.
Whatever you choose to use make sure that you are safe using the equipment. That is first and foremost. Do not do anything dangerous.
