Home gym costs vs Gym membership convince!?

My home gym isn't anywhere near as well laid out as Kap's but it is pretty stocked and effective.

I've spent about 2500.00 putting my garage/gym together. Love the convenience but I do like the gym atmosphere every once in a while.
 
I do it all at home with little. but a good imagination in lifting helps
I have a bench press with Olympic bar I have dumbbells a machine that dies Peck deck and pulldowns
a pullups dip bar and I have the glorified total gym I kniwvit sucks but actually it's perfect I use it in-between my sets with weights as a super se" on back chest and arms and one leg hack inbeteeen squats its nice. I'm doing better using it as far as my tendons sake
 
Damn MP, I never knew you had it like that lol. I would never leave my house unless it was to get food if I had a set up like yours an @kap73!!!!

Thanks Skull but you're not factoring in the being driven crazy by your wife after carrying up hundreds of boxes of Christmas decorations into the equation as a reason for staying or leaving the house.

Lol thats true. Well now that you said it like that, leaving the house an going to a public gym for the day isn't looking so bad;):D
 
Haha i get the missus to leave the house to get food, i wush i could be a stay at home dad but i earn better money so i have to work :( had my daughter in the gym with us yesterday while we did a circuit she slept the whole way thru lol she wakes up and me n mumma bear are laying on the floor half dead lmao
 
Home gyms are great, ive invested over 15k on my gym. Nothing better than walking into your own gym and traini g what ever the fuck u want. If u wana superset then u superset, if u wana run the rack then u run the rack, i have 400kg of plate weight aswell. Me and my girlfriend love it. I also have a leg press/hack squat and leg extension/leg curl

Wow! That's fucking awesome!
 
I like the gym membership. Ive met some interesting connections over the years. I also like the eye candy and the imagining that they want me.. What am i saying? They do want me.

The membership is affordable and im diligent so it gets me out of the house. Its 24 hours too so that helps.

Maybe id put some cardio at home, cuz i cant stand being on a cardio machine looking at the weights missing me. And maybe the women of the house would get on the thing from time to time.
 
I'm putting the finishing touches on my man cave this Xmas. Half rack, bench, dip, some mirrors and 350 pounds of plates. Still paying for two gym memberships though. One close to home, one close to work.
 
The first thing you should buy for a home gym is a power rack made out of atleast 11g metal, along with bench and barbell.

i disagree with the op and love my powerblock dumbells and they go up to 125.

Rings are another essential and they offer tons of versatility.
