buying a home gym

[Nioqeso]

I’m looking to do more bodybuilding over the next year. I want to get myself in the best shape of my life.
Definitely want to get a home gym and work out at a my garage because I can’t stand people and gyms are a pain in the ass to drive to and from.
Was wondering about buying a home gym. Who on here has one and what tips can you give me when it comes to buying equipment for it?

with a home gym you want to make sure you're buying rubber weights

 

[caligirl85]

a lot of times people give away stuff for really cheap

 

[Shrine]

check things like Backpage or Craigslist you can get some good deals

 

[Zyglamail]

lots of mattes and lots of weights and Olympic style bars

 

[Arabian]

I would get a squat rack you can do a lot with that including bench pressing

 

[BookerTNY]

rubber weights are very expensive check local gyms to see if you can buy their older equipment

 

[sambee38]

I would definitely look into gyms that are closing down usually can get really good deals
