I recently put an elliptical in the corner.

I found I have ended up using the smith machine function more than I expected after doing free weight barbell movements.

>>76764234
What’s the name of that type of carpet? It’s more sturdy to wear & tear?
Love the mirrors.

My stall mat under the rack is slowly shifting even with carpet tape, like an 1/8" per month or so. I'm gong to have to take all of that shit off and move the rack to put it back in place soon. Maybe extra carpet tape and gorilla tape on top will keep it in place.
God damnit.

>>76764264
It's commercial grade. I picked it exactly for wear and tear. 100% made the right choice. Was about 50% more than normal soft residential carpet. But since it's a small space it really was only a few hundred bucks more.

>>76763909 (OP)

ideally, you should look into commercial powerblock dumbbell set, which can also be used on a barbell. but it seems that /fit is a bunch of poor bastards who struggle to make at least 100k/year and are very stingy.

So if $2500 powerblock is too much for you, then look into bowflex dumbbells and barbells. they should cost you about $1000 overall.

If you want the best all-in-one type multi-machine, look at life fitness g4 or hoist v4-elite or hoist 2-stack-multi-gym. should cost you about $3-8k, but worth the price.

this machine in the pic is about $4000, but it's like having an entire 24-hour-fitness machines in one.

Haters will say you need more than this

>>76764443
Confirmed, I am poor loser. :(

>>76764443
That looks terrible and worthless. I bet you're tiny

>>76764443
Idk man, for $4k I think someone would be better off joining a nice gym and getting years of access to great equipment. I’ve used the kinds of multi-machines in your picrel: they are convenient but usually do each movement worse than their standalone counterparts or just plain old free weight exercises.
>>76764453
Flimsy chinkshit.

Next week I'm gonna upgrade my home gym, right now I just have an adjustable bench and fixed dumbbells in 15s, 25s, 35s, and 45s. Regret getting fixed weight now because it quickly became not enough weight for progression but a good set of adjustable dumbbells and plates is expensive as fuck so I think I'm about to just spring for a rack and barbell setup. Will I be fucking myself if I just get the cheapest shit I can from local walmart or sports outlet?

>>76765681
You're the kind of impulsive poorfag that obsesses over the price and makes stupid short term financial decisions. Do you tihnk you'll regret getting the cheapest shit you can find at walmart?

>>76765715
i dont know nigga I've never bought this shit before that is why i fucking asked. does quality really make that much a difference? I remember being 14 and thinking I needed a high quality keyboard for my pc but as an adult I realize keyboard are keyboards and I shouldve just saved my money. are barbells just barbells and racks just racks? weights just weights?

>>76765722
A good mechanical keyboard is way better than the standard rubber dome shit.
For barbells you want some kind of anti-rust coating on the shaft and usually the sleeves, cheapest is usually basic chrome, a couple hundred bucks. Anything cheaper than that will be prone to rusting, have shitty knurling, poor tensile strength, not standard 20kg/45lb and ~84-86" length and ~28-29mm diameter, etc.
Racks don't have to be as picky as long as it fits where you want to put it and isn't literal pig iron trash. Make sure the hole size and upright dimensions are something standard and can accept rack add-ons for anything you might want in the future. The cheapest cages have those shitty tube steel safeties that can deform and are a pain to change heights. Some have meme pullup bar styles.
Cheapest weights today are rubber. Virgin or crumb rubber. Cheapest virgin rubber weights are CAP. Walmart has their own brand called frombalance, but they've changed its name at least once because of all of the bad reviews for it. Otherwise you'll want something from titan, fringesports, or rogue echo. Look for $1-2/lb at least for 45s. Crumb rubber is usually the cheapest, but most plates are much wider and take up more sleeve space. Look for $1/lb.

>>76765796
thx anon will note when I go to the store

>>76765681
You will be absolutely fine with the 1" spin-lock style of adjustable dumbbells.
If you have any used sports goods stores in your area,
you can get a better deal usually.

Be aware, some designs on plates bigger than 10lb.
are too wide, and make movement hard on the dumbbell.
(like the designs with holes in the plates around the outside.)
(perfectly fine on the curl bar though.)

A power block stand like OP has,
makes storage, loading, using them,
much easier too, but it may not be in your budget.

>>76766600
I thought that was a “fan” in the top center of the ceiling. Lol

Hella nice setup.

Im looking to add Titans lat tower attachment to my x-3 rack and im wondering if any of you know if its 1:1 or 2:1. If its 2:1 ill probably look for something else.
Also any experience with their smith machine attachment? Is it a a solid buy or would something like the VTS Lite be better?

>>76766621
Thanks
It does look like one of those light socket fans.

>>76765681
>but a good set of adjustable dumbbells and plates is expensive as fuck
Spinlock adjustable dumbbells are as cheap as fixed dumbbells of the same weight.

>>76766631
>1:1
It looks identical to the one from Rep (both chinese) which advertises 1:1. Also, they mention max load of 300. If it was only capable of feeling like 150, it'd be worse than dogshit.

>>76765722
weighs dont matter.
racks matter a little
bars matter a good amount

>>76763909 (OP)
Heres my gym setup I have in my basement
I train together with my dad 3 times in week mainly Squats Bench Press Curls Overhand press and deadlift

>>76764453
they're ok if you're only using it a few times a week.
The only problem is the height - you want to be at full stretch with your feet off the floor.
No problem if you're Jeff.

>>76767728
Nice, but tight. More typical than the other fantasy gyms normally posted.
This is mine in the box bedroom - all the basics for lifting + treadmill

This is basically it, i have a few more pl8 around the house and a sled for push and pull in the garden. The current setup is just for explosive power tho (neider press, weighted calisthenics)

bumper plate

>>76763909 (OP)
Space is just an excuse. 8 square meters and I can do everything I need for full body. I'm getting dip handles for the rack next.

Holy fuck, 8m^2 for a dedicated gym setup! I can’t even dream of that.
Nice.

>>76772156
You have to know what you need and want. And sometimes accept the fact that you have to tailor your training to your space. Or train in a public gym. I couldnt fit an affordable upper/lower pulley system in here so I'm making do without one. For now. I dont NEED one but I'd like to have one. The kind of very compact free standing half-rack that would let me have one is a bit expensive (More than I've used on my home gym so far) but I'll get one some day.

>gas heater
Shoulda got a diesel or a split pump.
I'm literally considering just moving all my gym equipment into my basement because I'm sick of the temp changes even though I have a mini split.

>>76770979
definitely, if I had to start over I would ditch the concrete buckets entirely, and make the sawhorses half as long.

>>76772328
Ty, I am a retard.
Glad 4Chin strips exif data nowadays.

>>76773128
I’ve actually considered the concrete buckets before. Overkill for my limited space though I think.

>>76772584
>split pump
My garage stays pretty decent in the summer. I can handle an 85° gym no problem. My garage was around 10-20° last winter so it wasn't ideal.
>basement
Sounds great if you got the space and ceiling height.

>>76773128
>>76773149
I did the concrete buckets then smashed the concrete off and added a triangular base plus safeties to the uprights. I now wish I had kept the concrete and made the safeties a little shorter and the base a little smaller, and added some wheels to make moving them around easier.

Been using them this way for years now, though. Probably never change them.

>>76769853
Inverted rows, they are easier and also train your lats.

>>76769853

>>76773854
Yeah I have 10 foot ceilings and the basement is a walkout to the backyard.
Where I live the humidity is horrible and im sick of cleaning my equipment to prevent it from rusting.

any limited space bros ever tried to turn a landmine into a leg press? i've seen a few videos on diy shit using t bars/viking press attachments but always looked sketch as fuck

>>76775288
I get that it's yours, do what you please and all that, but that sounds unnecessarily retarded. If you don't want to squat, do one of the other hundred acceptal alternatives.
Preliminary thoughts would be to cut off a piece of schedule 80 pipe so that it can slide over the sleeve. Weld a rectangular piece of metal to the pipe piece you cutoff. Essentially, insert the barbell into landmine, place your diy footplate over the other sleeve, load up weight, crush yourself while muttering grow grow grow lightweight baby.

>>76763909 (OP)
Here is mine. I have a dip bar now too. I keep saying I will get a new photo which I will do tomorrow. I will one day get a badass cable machine/functional trainer. But they are like 2 grand. I WILL do it one day, then I can delete all the other stuff pretty much.

>>76776158
I got a belt too for the dip bar (not seen in photo). Does anyone have the meme of the guy who does dips and his triceps are abnormally large? Honestly, with the dips, I dont feel it in my chest as much as triceps. Maybe my angle?

Alright bros, what cage to get? I've seen the myrack and the Walmart yellow and the ritfits of the world and I got no idea here. I don't really need a functional trainer but it'd be nice. I'm in the market for strap or bar safeties I can easily move. Looking for reccs from the people who actually are using these and not just buying them.

>>76779729
just buy any 3x3 rack with either 5/8 or 1 inch bolts
it'll be more than enough for you
if you buy american, you can bequeath it to your grandkids

>>76777874
Awesome for squats. So thick and heavy feels like nothing on your back. Easy on the shoulders due to angle and long so you can easily grip it wide. Also feels really good to bench with since its so thick and gives a great stretch. Ive got every bar imaginable and the two non-olympic bars I couldn't live without are the CB-4 & SSB.

>>76780199
The bow bars feel great with squats

>>76780057
Is Vulcan good?

>>76780406
I've never owned anything Vulcan but have heard good things. Kind of a fringe brand that lies in the periphery and never really took off.

>>76780449
Shit just looked at their pricing and you might as well go Rogue. I have a Monster Lite RML-490c. If you have the space and money go RML-690c. I had space constraints so most of my plates are stored on a tree or on my Hammer Strength leg press plate storage.

>>76780455
Oh yeah, I was looking at the flat foot, I don't really have a floor I can bolt to. I was also looking at myrack but that isn't 3x3.

>>76780465
you don't need to bolt

>>76780406
Basically the same chinese stuff as everyone else. One level below Rep, on par with Fringe Sport and probably Bells of Steel, a step above Titan. I have their alpha bumpers which have better durability for use outside. But the price of them have skyrocketed over the years. Any standard black bumper or iron plate will work fine.
Also, wait a couple more days. Every company does month long discounts, daily/weekly deals in November. Rouge doesn't typically have stuff on sale, but you can save a killing on shipping with them. And usually if you buy a rack or rig and a bar and plate set or something along those lines, everything else you buy at checkout ships free. So if you know it's something you're going to have long time, and you know what you need to hit YOUR training goals at home, Nov is the best time to buy and go all in right from the get go.
>>76780455
Agreed. I wish I did 6 post instead of 4. I thought it would be overkill for a garage but having those extra uprights for storage is a game changer.

>>76780503
Word? They just look a bit unstable with the bars touching the floor but I'll believe you.

>>76780503

You need to bolt if you're moving heavy weight. Racking a 500+ lb squat violently is gonna move your cage.

>>76778339
I bought it for 90 €, it's an entry level model tho, kind of too hollow

>>76763909 (OP)
I'd like to add a bench to my humble home gym (aka a pair of dumbbells), and I come to /hgg/ for recommendations

They’re just another Chinese importer, like the anon said: on par with most of the other importer brands. They were actually pretty decent a decade ago—I got some of their bumper plates on recommendation from garagegyms.com (a little out-of-date, but the guy is finally posting reviews again), and they’re awesome. They got left behind hard since then, though. Their customer service is also pretty terrible. If you have the budget, go Rogue.

I want to add a cardio bike to my home gym this black friday
Is there any one that's generally recommended (ideally that can close/store in as little space as possible), or are they all the same?
I mostly like picrel but it seems kinda big and not sure how I'd store it

>>76781484
>Far too much space.
Nah. There's plenty of room outside to put in a baseball and football/rugby field. Or maybe a combo abomination like Oakland had.

>>76782394
idk, for that price i wouldnt trust it lasting very long. if thats your budget i would get an old road bike and a trainer set instead.
i feel like any cardio machine these days that is worth a damn is going to be at least 1k
i think an easy go to brand for cardio machines is echelon or nordic track. idk if any of them or even if the one you posted is good tho

>>76769325

>>76786071
If I had more space, I would prioritize other gear.
With my home gym space limited, I wish I had this stand years ago!

i boughted a back extension chair thing

>>76786413
They are one of the few extra pieces of equipment that are worth the money and floor space.

>>76786432
i hope so, it should arrive in about a week. i've been having some back pain recently so i hope regular use of it will help. i've tried it at a gym before and loved how it felt, especially side bends felt far better on the machine than they did standing.

I want to go home-gym full time because I want to spend as much time with my kid as possible, but I also want to be a personal trainer, and I basically to join a gym for that. What is the correct course of action here?

>>76788992
You'll have to start at a commercial gym to get clients but eventually you can just bring them to your place once it's well built out with enough options.

how the fuck do you do a home gym in an apartment? i have a nice garage setup that i have been building for years but I'm going to move out.
its very minimalist, i use rings, a barbell, barbell rack, adjustable dumbbells.

am i just fucked and have to go to a commercial gym?

>>76789018
>how the fuck do you do a home gym in an apartment
You don't.

>>76789046
take a look at this baby

>>76789052
Is that your entire setup? What the fuck am I looking at? The plates take up all of the space in the cage, even using the pullup bar looks annoying. I only see a jcup on one side and a "safety" (???) on the other that's way too short to be useful. Your apartment's flooring has no protection, one dropped weight can fuck it up.

>>76789063
its not my setup. im just googling images of apartment gym setups.
i really dont want to go to a commercial gym after lifting in my garage for so many years.
as for damaging the floor can't you just use cushions/mats? its not like im slamming my deadlifts into the floor

>>76789008
Yeah, but I don't know if I want to put the PT thing on hold for now and focus on being a dad first, or whether I should focus on getting clients and getting that off the ground.

>>76789081

I’ve been posting in these generals for a while and enjoy seeing all the gyms and discussing equipment, etc., but talking about how to fit a home gym into small apartments is kinda a stretch. I mean, at what point does it make more sense to join a gym and overcome your anxiety?

>>76791846
There's one bro I think from UK, he's got a relatively small room designed as a home gym, and it works - he's got a rack with a pulldown attachment, a bench, and if I remember a spin bike, so there's everything one needs to be fit.

Been lifting in an apartment on the second floor for about 5 months straight now. House was built in the early 1900s and feels pretty stable. Don’t drop my deadlifts, don’t slam anything, haven’t had any issues thus far. Only truly retarded thing I have to deal with is pulling the bar all the way to one side while loading/unloading to get the 45s on. Power Rack is sitting on/above a major load supporting wall. Got the rack from my friend who was no longer using it, for free. Bar and weights are from my original home gym at my parent’s house when I was a teenager. Bench was 120 or something like that on Amazon and does a good job. Dumbbells are old and were free, or new and stolen from Walmart. I’ve since bought a 350lb bumper plate set but haven’t re-taken any pics since. Going to get a new bar and a leg extension attachment soon. Hopefully I never fall through my buddy’s ceiling, knock on wood.

>>76792411
Just realized the bench isn’t in the pic either but this is the one I got. It’s actually only 80 bucks now. Wish it had a better decline notch but alas

Based Bruce, I'd also suggest a set of adjustable DBs when your budget allows for upper body isolations, I guess KBs work in a pinch, but yolo why make compromises on the only body you get.

i am gonna train like a black man with no weight

i am a poor NEET

i do pull ups and pushups

>>76794078
with no equipment*

>>76794069
Appreciate the encouragement mate.
I've got a basic set of db's/barbell, i'm also keeping an eye out for people offloading weight sets.
Best thing about fitness is that people go and buy all the shit without realising that you need to actually force yourself to do anything with it, kek

I'm cleaning out the shred shed this afternoon, will post photos of the rig when I pick that cage up and get it all set up

nice setup btw

>>76764453
what is the cheapest one i can buy? i want one of these

i have been doing pushups because i have no equipment

>>76794170
Have you had a look around on Craigslist/Marketplace etc?

Those things are good for leg raises and dips, and that's about it-- the pullup bar is so close to the backrest that it's unuseable.
Would be better than nothing but I'd say you'd be real underwhelmed real quick

>>76789018
Depends on how much space you actually have. If you're worried about weight in upper floors then stop. The concrete will last.

See: >>76769670

>>76763909 (OP)
I need to get back into shape and all the gyms near me are either way too expensive or pretty shit and over-crowded.

I want to start slowly getting gym equipment for a bedroom out the back of my house. It's kinda smallish, ceiling is 240cm high but annoyingly there is a ceiling fan right in the middle so it could make fitting cages or other large items a bit tricky.

I just wanna start with some basics though, what should I prioritise getting first? Can I get a rundown of what I should look into getting first and what I should be looking at down the track?

>>76794906
It depends on what you actually like to train with if you don't know then just go for basics. For me, I've gradually phased dumbbells out of my training in favor of low/high pulley.

The basics are adjustable/loadable dumbbells, a pull up bar or rings, resistance bands, an adjustable bench.
Dumbbells can cover most of your routine, if you don't get a bench initially you can do pushups then weighted push ups. It's pretty important to get into vertical pulls early, resistance bands can ease you into it if you struggle with bodyweight pull ups.

I have a really small space, bought a dip/pullups station off of aliexpress for 70 euro first
Then after a month or so of pure calisthenics I also got a pair of adjustable DBs (the cheapest I could find, about 350 euro for the pair)

Honestly I'm already pretty happy with this stuff, sure I can't really go hard on legs but idgaf
I'm starting to really feel the lack of a bench tho, will buy one this black friday, but I really don't have space for anything more

If I had the space I'd def have bought a cheap rack rather than a power tower

>what should I prioritise getting first? Can I get a rundown of what I should look into getting first and what I should be looking at down the track?
if you don't know, don't buy
or waste your money, i don't care, it's your life

Depends entirely on how you want to train and how much money you have.
I would say adjustable dumbbells and a bench and/or a functional trainer and/or a cardio machine of your choice.

This is basically my setup as well. Rack, adjustable bench, BB and adjustable DBs.

I've been researching equipment that has cables for tricep work, chest, lat pulls, etc. but they are quite expensive. I'm not sure the slight increase in volume is worth the cost, especially since I still maintain a gym membership.

For now I'm mostly focused on strength programming anyway so it's not necessary, but would be nice.

I'm hung up on what adjustable dumbbells to get.
Was looking at the eisenlinks, then i fell in love with nuobells, but each have their issues.

Anyone have experience with either of the sets i mentioned? Recommendations for others are welcome too.

I don't know anything about Eisens, they look like knockoff ironmasters which I have and love. The style isn't good if you do majority DB work or tons of supersets, but they are the most durable type you can get. They have the highest maximum weight with the expansions and are the most size compact at those higher weights, although the long handles can be awkward in the lighter range. You really want a large sturdy table to set them and their weights on to have standing space to change them around.

All that I've heard about nuobells is that they are old, outdated, and tons of plastic that breaks easily. The company takes care of you in their warranty, but after a year or 2 or whatever good luck.

Old pic. Gave the 36-72" plyo box to a teammate and sold the chinisium sled. Acquired the Bulletproof Isolator, a triple seat jogger, more hurdles, and a storage rack for the KBs, DBs, and misc. Mom upgraded to a carbon road bike. Eventually, I would like to get a latpull/row/FT combo unit.

I have IMs. Highly recommend getting them with the heavy handle kit, as it bumps up the starting weight while also shortening the handle length. I've used Powerblocks in collegiate and military weightrooms, and while high quality and fast weight change, I personally don't care for their blocky and bulky shape. The Peppins look intriguing, but I don't know anyone that's used them firsthand, and long-term durability remains to be seen. Also, for that price, you might as well buy a full set, if you have the space. I've used oly handles before. They're ok. Nice only if you have a bunch of spare 10s. Mine were 22" long and a nuisance. Can't speak on the two you were looking at.
