I go to the gym because I’m not afraid of people. I also have a gym in the basement but I’m selling the equipment. Real gym is better

Much of the living room of my 1br apt is home gym.

I need to get a stand for my mountain bike so I can make it a stationary bike in colder months.

I despise interacting with people, people suck ass.  

How is a real gym better (other than you prefer to work out with other people)?

That changes when you have little kids in the house and can't just go to the gym whenever.....not afraid of people, just live 30 mins from the closest gym and between kids and work don't have the time to go.

I would get a gym membership, but I'm afraid the government might close gyms in a vain effort to stop the spread of a disease that kills fat people.

Oh, wait.

You can get plenty strong with dumbbells and a bench,

The most important aspect of gym memberships OR home gym equipment is use

Had a friend invite me to try out his new expensive "home gym" that he paid $6,000 for.  He threw on 4 plates on a bench press and I lifted it 3 times.  I weight 145 at the time.  He couldn't believe it so I explained functional strength to him.

No doubt that “farm strong” is a real thing. But for those of us who don’t own or work on a farm, a home gym will have to suffice.

That was a weird post. I think the vast majority of home gym owners do it for convenience. Why pay a membership and have to drive somewhere to work out, if you can do it at home?

Rogue rack and bench with a Concept 2 rower and some Nuobells.

I like working out. I hate gyms. I hate getting my shit together and driving to them, I hate their hours, I hate waiting or sharing equipment and I hate the weirdos at them. Some of the best money I've ever spent.

Home brew to Rogue's Infinity line for both steel dimension and hole pattern.  All of their accessories work with my rack. Lots of drilling operations. I ended up with exactly what I wanted.

If you mean 4 plates total for 225, welcome to high school strength level. If that’s not the case, explain to the rest of us what the magical functional strength theory is. Please.

This thread makes me wish I had more space.  

I’ve got a single car garage half filled with crap and two motorcycles.  

The other half is a Rogue RML 490C, a few cerakoted barbells, Rogue bench, a plate tree with more weight than I can lift and a few dumbbells.  

I’m really crammed in there but it gets used all the time and it gets the job done.

I started my home gym last week, smith machine works great and have a set of Core fitness adjustable dumbbells and about 270 lbs in weight so far.
