Just set this up, how'd I do?
>weights and bars; $200
>bench; $120
>cage; $660
I'd love to have a simple set up like this
>>37339122
I like it. Get some adjustable DBs and you're set.
>>37339122
Cage was a great investment, not a personal fan of the bench but to each his own
>>37339122
U buy that cage and plates off craigslist or new?
>>37339139
Its pretty good, first session and it was amazing.
>>37339152
>adjustable DBs
Waaaay ahead of you senpai. Bottom left of pic
>>37339155
Hell yea it was. Honestly the whole set up paid for itself with not having to deal with gym bullshit. The bench is actually quite good, very sturdy and has incline and decline.
>>37339160
Cage new, everything else second hand. Gumtree and eBay.
Bump for more home gyms.
>>37339122

I don't think the best time to start a thread you want to be lively is sometime in the range of 12-3 in the morning for Americans
Also, I would post mine, but it is in a detached garage with no working light atm, so I can't take a picture
My gym
-half rack
-oly 7ft barbell
-oly dumbbell
-oly trapbar
-oly tricep bar
-300kg max rated decline/incline/flat bench
-power tower (chins,pull-ups,dips)
-assorted plates 20kg,10kg,5kg,2.5kg,1.25kg,0.5kg
-ab roller (lol)
>>37339694
Looks good anon. I like it. I need to grab an Ez-curl bar and I'll be set
>step up to power tower
I kek'd
Hey guys. How do I get a Tyre for my home gym? Should I just grab one from a farm?
>>37339122
home gym = autistic
going to the gym is actually a thing by itself, get out of ur retarded house, see other people
>>37339815
Either that or buy one from a wreckers that's lacking tread.
>>37339852
Why on earth would I wanna be around other people when I'm working out?
Gym=\=socialising
>>37339852
lol wait until you've been lifting for more than a year and you'll realize how time saving a home gym is.
The whole "experience" of the gym ends after the first 6-12 months, after that you'll begin questioning the effiency of your time spent traveling to the gym a back.
>b-but I live next door to my gym
Fuck off then. I use to spend 30min traveling every time I went to the gym. That 30min adds up fast. Not to mention no waiting time for equipment.
The fact I can just train at any time makes lifting extremely adaptable to my lifestyle, where as fags like you need to be autistic and set out specific times.
You'll learn soon enough about what I'm saying here, it's only a matter of time.
>>37339852
When lifting stops being your number one priority in life you'll realise the power of a home gym.
>>37339122
where's the moveable saftey bars?
isn't that the point of squatting in a cage?
could have just bought a rack for 1/3 the price
My home gym is a pair of 70kg spinlock dumbells, a tredmill, a bench, a doorframe pullup bar and a barbell that I only use for diddlys
>>37340108
Down the bottom anon.
Here's my setup.
>>37340897
/diy/ mirin that dip station
>>37339122
Fix your safety bars. No point otherwise. J hooks also need to have you squatting in the cage. Wtf man think.
>>37340897
>pvc piping dip station
this is a great idea also I'm rock hard right now
>>37339122
lol @ home gym fags
>no lat pulldown machine
>no cable station
>no calf machine
Enjoy your mediocre results
Here's what I have.
>>37340979
what the fuck is that monster to the left and what did it cost you
>>37340897
nice one
>>37340897
>>37340979
>PVC dip stations
Fucking amazing!
>>37340924
There's J-hooks on the inside, I move em up for squats, same with safeties.
>>37340994
My parents got it for me when I was younger because they thought it would be safer than free weights lol. It was like $950 I think? It wasn't a great tool then, but it was actually an amazing thing to have for my recovery after my harsh accident. I'm the fag who posts my huge stomach scar on here from time to time.
>>37339122
>>37339694
>>37340897
I'm officially a jar of jelly
I just wanna buy a house, get a home gym and blast my shitty music while I OHP naked
My set up, but since this was taken now got 2 barbells, oly rings, extra 100KG worth of bumper plates & a pylo box for box squats/barbell step ups.
cheapest of em all

How much does this coast?
>>37341252
Cont:
Advantages of HG:
> Listen to autistic music as loud as you like
> Never have to wait for people to finish on stuff/take as much time as you like between sets
> Can grunt and swear as loud as you like
> Nobody can complain about you doing powercleans/diddlys
> Can train any time you like, any day you like
Dis:
> No pussy around
> Cold in the winter, hot in summer
> Anybody walking past can see inside unless you have electrics
> Big upfront investment
Advantages deffo outweigh disadvantages tho, well worth it.
>>37341277
Surely the rope would cause a slight bounce at the bottom, making each rep easier?

>>37341255
>>37341277
the ropes were there i dont know why, I dont use them (what would I do with them anyway). I have 30kg of dumbbell plates, and been lifting for 3 months.
>>37341298
Thanks senpai
>>37341338
Yup. Built the cage myself with dadbro (lifting buddy)
>>37339122
You shouldn't leave those meatballs on the floor, they'll spoil in the heat.
>>37339815
go to a junkyard or large equipment repair place
>>37340897
>>37341455
>>37341277
thats a perfect setup, when you still look dyel after two years you already have rope hanging from the ceiling to hang yourself
Anyone homegym in an apartment building? I do my dbs rollouts and empty barbell drills, but taking the step of adding weight on the bar and doing my big lifts at home seems like a huge deal, like it could get the police at my door or neighbors to shit on my doormat. How effective are lifting platforms at absorbing noise and vibrations?
>no chalk
>>37339122
fuark where'd you get that cage
I have a $1000 budget, I need a home gym. I need to be able to do the big three plus OHP and pull ups. Having a dip station would be nice too but not entirely necessary.

Jesus Tapdancing Christ I'm so envious of you all right now. The only way I'd be able to have a home gym right now is if it was outside, and I can't do that because it drops to -15* F in the winters with feet of snow.

Also have a 40lb barbell that was given as a gift.
my parents gifted me these for my 19th birthday last week -- pullup door bar , adjustable dumbbells and barbell, 38kg of weights. I am a complete newb at weightlifting but I'm learning the basics and following beginner routines.
I work out in my bedroom -- planning to get a job so I'll buy myself a decent home gym. pic related are really good for beginners like me tho!
>>37344820
Rings on a ladder. Pls always record your sessions.
Here's where I do my lifting.
I have a pair of gymnastic rings hanging from the stairs inside the house so I can do pullups without hitting my head on the ceiling.
Same problem with OHP, though now that the weather is nice, I might just take the bar and some plates outside to do it there.
>>37345049
Seconded.
>>37339122
you dont even have 4pl8 worth of 45s, are you even trying?

>>37345291
Reccomend going to one completely alone and talking to people as you go. Work with a team for each obstacle. You'll make friends that are great
>>37345300
About $20 in 2x4s and 2x6s from home depot
>>37341152
So much this. I dream of the day I can do my squats buck ass naked and bellowing out full force Tarzan yells. No homo.
>>37342706
That poster is perfect.
Closing on a home w/i the next 30 days. Can't wait to start setting up a home gym.
>>37345294
It's actually just something that popped into my head when most of the stuff arrived - I had entirely forgotten to buy plate trees.
Another nice thing with it is that it doesn't build too far out from the wall. You can't really see how little room I have to work with, but just to the left of the bench in the top left picture is where I split and store the firewood.
>>37342696
>carpet
Fuck man you should've put some plywood or matting underneath eveyrthing first

I do. One time i ate shit. If you guys want i could share the instagram video here.
>>37345488
i dont give a shit about that carpet.
besides, i dont slam weights and the weight i lift isnt all that heavy

the event is about 90minutes from my home. not very likely to find someone from my town. my "fat" friend is actually pretty fit. i mean hes chunky but he lifts every day and runs half marathons. so its cool

Im gonna sound even more autistic but my hat isnt really a fedora. Its called a trilby. Big difference.
Also they came in the mail and i was really excited to use them so i just took off my shirt and tried them on.
>>37345688
do you feel good about the argument you have set forth?
>>37345713
I really dont care if other autists wear the same hat as me while all the cool kids wear a fedora. I like the hat so i just put it on. Nothing more to it.

Is people complaining about powercleans or diddlys a common occurrence? I've never seen it at my gym, even when a faggot was slamming weights to the ground hard after every rep
>>37345245
you overpaid.
>>37344930
just get a few bucks a month and find a gym. keep saving up for a home gym, but man, you won't make much progress with those weights. are you hiding more plates somewhere?
>>37345245
what are the specs on that lifting platform? did you buy or make it?
>>37345636
This is everything I wanted to see
Also are ring dips really that hard, or is he just weak?
>>37345317
It's rated for 160kg (350lbs)
>>37346049
I wouldn't load that much on it if I were you, but it should serve you fine up to a point. Unlike this board would have you believe, nobody benches 225 their first day
Are 2" adjustable dumbbells decent? Seems like at 20" they would be hard to use for some things.
>>37345947
Compared to normal dips the pressing is only a bit harder. Whats really a bitch is stabilizing them. Thats why you can see my first time i was struggling for my life but in the other one with the trilby they were easy.
>>37345835
Why would you say this? Do you not enjoy my company?
Full monkey bars, outside heater, coliseum pool for post-workout, rock climbing face on inside coliseum, mountain trails, and dip bars.
Ordering a hex bar soon.

God I want to home gym and train people for cheaper (Trainer fag) and blast music and deadlift naked
>>37339852
Are you saying the gym is the only reason you get out of your house? Because some of us actually do have social lives outside of working out and a home gym doesn't hinder it
>>37346706
>treadmill

What's the deal with safety bars/pins like pic related? Most places seem to claim that these sleeve'd safeties are sturdier than just solid steelrods but that seems somewhat counterintuitive to me. Since I plan on building a power rack myself this kind of safety is pretty apealing though because the holes are much easier to drill.
>>37348121
Long ones are for squatting
Short ones are for benching.
>>37341044
i wanna see
>>37348121
steel is pretty brittle, and will shatter after repeated impacts (like glass). the sleeves prevent the jarring impact.

>>37341350
Congrats senpai
>>37341567
i'm wrestling with this same problem anon. Picked up a couple dumbbells, trap, and ez curl bar.
Figure there's a few isolations I can do on 'rest' days, there's enough gas in tank for them, but not enough to warrant going into the gym for.
wouldn't even consider doing deads or even squats though (third floor) -- even reracking the weights on my shitty 2pl8 squat would sound like a sonic boom to the poor fuckers below me.
>>37347601
>2 pec decks and 3 EZ bars
Y tho
>>37346411
It's a fedora, no one gives a shit if you call it a trillby you insufferable dyel faggot.
>>37348650
Its not a fedora you dumb piece of shit.
Yes they both look similar but theyre not the same thing. They have completely different designs and are usually made from different material. A fedora is a fedora while a trilby is a trilby. Every autistuc hat doesnt fall in the spectrum of fedora.
>>37348573
I use the pin loaded machine ... I have bars and weights that have built up over time ... not uncommon for two or more to be working out at once ... etc
>>37348678
You're the only one who makes this distinction or gives a shit. You're autistic response in thinking anyone knows or cares only further proves you as a silly faggot. Go back to playing with rings on your parents porch.
>>37339122
Cool and all but bah, who else /livesnextdoortotheirgym/ here?
>>37348797
>You're the only one who makes this distinction or gives a shit.
Look at both hats side by side and if you still think its the same thing then you must be fucking retarded.
ITT: Men arguing about fedoras instead talking about working out.
Faggots
>>37348829
at a glance no one cares, at all. if you actually think anyone looks at you and goes "oh well that's a trillby I suppose he isn't frank sinatra!" then I'm not the retard here.
>>37348877
I already lifted bro now I'm just messing with this little autist, really all /fit/ is for
>>37339852
the only interaction you should be having at the gym is "hey are you using this"
>>37348890
I didnt say every person is gonna be examining my hat and comparing my to Frank Sinatra. The simple fact is its not a fedora. I didnt even make a big deal out of it, i just mentioned it and you decided to sperg out.
