I just bought these weights and bench for $100. Did I do well? Now I need a squat rack and gym mats.
>>
Please advise.
>>
As long as you use them to lift and not as a towel rack. Also the bar is too small to be Olympic.
>>
>>36719199
The bar looks like some pussy shit but I have another bar I can use if I need.
>>
>>36719199
Not necessarily. Looks like Olympic weights
>>
>>36719218
The weights are definitely Olympic weights and so is the bar; the handle looks wimpier than other bars I've seen
>>
clean it and set it up and post.
>>
>>36719233
How long is the bar? And do the ends revolve smoothly?
>>
>>36718992
Uhh how is a barbell able to fit into a trunk of what looks like a sedan?
Does it like detach into smaller pieces?
>>
>>36719259
the seat goes down in the back.
>>
>>36718992
Go set up your weight set around a park and teach the inner city kids how to lift!
>>
>>36718992
That looks like shit.
>>
>>36718992
Great buy. I'm jelly. My home gym setup is still lacking a bench, a squat rack, and about 150 more lbs of weight.

>>
>>36718992

Nah you did bad. Judging by those weights, they look like 5-10 pounds. That's some pussy shit.

maybe im too unfamiliar with the imperial measuring system but 1" means one inch to me, which is 2.56cm if i recall correctly. I think the plates at my gym have a far bigger hole, like 5cm atleast. Does "1" " describe a different unit?
>>
>>36721826
won't these break at the first deadlifting session?
>>
>>36721858
i'd imagine giving them some sort of casing, even if it's just a whole lot of duct tape slapped around them, would help

It doesn't seem like you did too bad. Defiantly set it up and share a picture.
Racks can be had pretty cheaply second hand. Congratulations anon to joining the home gym master race.

>>36721942
plasti dip would probably be ideal
>>
>>36721850
cheap barbells are 1" thivk, that's a "standard" barbell
