If you don't have a home gym, you are poor.

Simple as. The only exception is if you pay for a high end gym (which prices out undesirables) and it's services. Lettuce beef real tea - avg age on the misc is well over 30 now. You aren't a broke college kid anymore. If you're still paying 10 bucks a month to go to planet chitness or la chitness or any other pleb gym newsflash: you are broke and no different from the joggers and riff raff inhabiting these places. My advice: quit screwing around and get a real job. I will be chitposting while lifting in my boxers, blasting heavy metal in my basement gym while you are stuck listening to tyrone and pablos rap on full blast from their phones. Have fun wiping down their equipment and re-racking their weights LMFAO.

I have no interest in working out at home.

There's lots of sexy ass in yoga pants at the gym, which is like 75% of the reason for going in the first place.

Okay Big guy.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

There's no need for this hostility brother, you need to have more understanding and maturity, if you are over 30 like you say you are you should have more respect and understanding for people. Good luck on your journey.

You don't need a lot of money to have a decent home gym. Just space. Something like a pull-up tower with dipping handles, dipping belt, maybe a sit-up bench, and 100 lbs of plates and you can do a decent workout.

Never wanted a home gym.

The community and culture is a part of the experience.

Home gyms are nice. I don't have to waste precious time driving there and back. I don't have to wait for ppl to use equipment, I don't have to pay for a membership. Plus, I can blast my music as loud as I want.

Can confirm. Don't have a home gym. Am poor.

That being said, I do have a pull-up/dip bar and a good pair of adjustable dumbbells that helps me cut my actual "gym days" in half. Maybe someday…

I wish my gym membership was $10. The cheapest one in my city is $45 but it motivates me to go.

There’s a gym at my work, and my small town hole in the wall gym is awesome when wfh.

Would like to have a home gym someday but I think I’ll always have a gym membership. Most important $300 I spend every year

All you need is a set of 50# power blocks , a chuck noris total gym and a jump rope and maybe a bicycle.

I have to admit I miss the camaraderie in the public gym . I knew a lot of people there , and I’m pretty sure they’d have my back in the bar .
It got extremely busy after 5 pm , and it was too crowded . I was getting sick far too often , and after I built a home gym I never had a cold for almost a decade.
I have a crappy house with a 7’ ceiling ,so that created some issues. But I overcame the problem by building g racks with pulleys in the ceiling for a lat machine . The lat machine is not totally complete,but someday .
I started my gym with a piece of carpet that I threw on the corner of my basement floor from Walmart , then went to the city and purchased a bench ,Olympic weight combo .
Next thing you know I was tearing out bedroom walls and building the gym on the other side of the basement. Then expansion afte expansion

The cheap Olympic bars I bought both bent , so I went with rogues high end bars . Third from the top is their best bar , full stainless



A Miscer here had a wicked setup using this product called StoreWall . It’s fantastic for storing your bars . I got carried away and my chiropractor who is a weight lifter asked me wtf is with all those bars lol


Btw everything yellow is now orange . Need to update pics once the stereo is done

I like convenience of a home gym, but most appreciate not having to put up with fkwits recording with tripods.

A home pool big enough to actually do laps is the real game changer in my experience.
Screw nature; my body will do what I DAMN WELL tell it to do!

The only dangerous thing about an exercise is the person doing it.

They had the technology to rebuild me. They made me better, stronger, faster……
