Let’s see those garage gyms!

Ordered two sets of these from Walmart. Should be here in 3 weeks. I tried to order them last week, but they ran out before I could even add them to the cart. This morning is the first time I've seen them back in stock. I was going to get 4 sets, then remembered all those empty TP shelves and cut the order in half.

Let us know how they work out for you. Most of us probably wouldn’t buy equipment from Walmart but desperate times call for desperate measures.
 
I’m not too surprised. When I got mine from them looked like they only had about10 left. That company will have to hire about 10 people just to keep up with the demand right now.
Agreed, still looking myself but of course nothing yet lol
 
My home gym; endless bands 1 8lb, 2 20lb and 30lb kettle bells. Rubber DBs up to 40lb and adjustable DBs 1” plates to 62lb. Belt & Olympic bar and bumper plates 4 15lb and 2 10s.
I’ve been using kettle bells to add more weight, and cause I’m a cheap ass I was trying to find plates under a $1 pound and prior to the Pandemic it was do able but, I kept holding out for a large set around .60-.70 a pound. Now I’m kick myself! Consider $1 a great deal!
The cage I bought, accidentally/cause I’m cheap. I had been looking at this cage and a few others for 2-3 months starting to go crazy, so one night after a few beers I find it listed for 80 bucks cheaper!! Score! So I ordered it and upon checking the shipping tracking the next day I realized I bought the shorter 6ft cage as opposed to the 7ft.
The bike and a treadmill in front of a large sliding glass for in the next room and a power tower in the garage that I like to drag outside on nice days.

This is what we are working with till quarantine is over.... just bought a bench and a set of the adjustable dumbbells that go up to 52.5lbs.

I have a similar one, though mine has dip bars on the back side I'm able to use for overhead press. I haven't used it in years, but was thinking of setting it back up while I'm waiting for other stuff to arrive.

It’s been a life saver. Working on 30 rounds of 10 push up, 5 dips, 5 pull-ups as we speak.
 
I went to Walmart earlier and all they had left was a single 2.5lb plate and a few light dumbbells. I don't even know what they usually carry, but apparently they had some Olympic plates.
 
It's supposed to be a workshop, but I guess it will be my gym instead. Have a few people from my normal gym I will invite when I get it setup. I just wish I had known I would have time to do it all myself instead of getting a contractor to do most of it.Either way, it should be usable by the end of the week if not sooner.

Yikes, one 45 lb plate costs as much as I paid for 210 lbs. Of course I have to wait 3 weeks to get them. For some it may be worth the price.

Where did you order from?

Edit: Looks like you ordered from Walmart. I did a search for buying dumbbells and it landed me here at the bottom of the page. I see after scrolling up that you mentioned where you ordered from.
 
Damn all those put my 2x 25kg dumbbells and 20kg Kettlebell to shame. Need a rack, just so damn pricey!! "Social Distancing" put an end to Facebook market place :/

Yeah, I checked this morning and they are out again. They didn't even last 24 hours. Might be worth checking a few times a day to see if they get some in stock.
