What do you think a home gym needs? Most of those expensive machines at the gym can easily be replaced with cheap equipment that will hit the same muscles
I got a bunch of rocks and boulders for no more than the price of gas to drive them home. It was difficult digging them up but worth it. It's hard to get it in your head that this is a good way to lift but it is once you develop lifts for them. The only barbell I do anymore is power cleans.
I said a decent home gym. Having a dogshit barbell and frick all weights is not a decent home gym.
are you fricking moronic? you don't need that much for the first year. just buy some shit off craigslist or walmart. do you buy brand new cars too homosexual?
Don't live in America so your cheap chinese shit from places like Walmart don't matter. *One* pair of 20kg iron weight plates costs around 80 bucks on their own and they're the cheapest kind of weight plates. Anyone saying you can build a decent home gym for less than 500 bucks are moronic and obviously haven't built one.
Planet fitness here's most expensive membership is $9.90 a week. They do have the $5 a week membership but then you are even less likely to build a home gym for $260
Do you think a 90 kg squat is anything but a warm up for some one who actually lifts?

For you, yes it is all you need you dumb c**t. There is no way you are any type of lifter, at all, in any capacity, if you're too fricking stupid to figure out how to get some used plates and a decent bar and make it work. You're a frickin helpless baby, get one of your two dads to buy you some dumb bells, it'll get you farther than a membership to the purple pizza place.

You're projecting hard because you're butthurt you still haven't progressed passed a 45kg db press. I'm not asking any of you morons for anything because i already have a home gym and guess what? It cost more than 500 dollars. That's how i know what i'm talking about and why you just look like a bunch of DYEL goblins thinking anyone who actually wants to progress will never need more than some shit dumbbells. Go cry more online you whiny homosexual.

200lbs 11reps of 5 sets is "ego lifting"?
Bruh, progressive overload. As you progress, you will naturally squat more than you can curl, bench, etc. Your legs are much stronger than your arms. If you only squat what you can curl, bench, etc. You'll just be doing cardio with how many reps you can do. It might be fine for a begginer, but as you progress for half a year you should really have moved on to heavier squat weights.
And YES, you DO, need progressively heavier weights to build bigger legs.
The only thing I can imagine is you're coming from being obese, so your body squat weight is 300lbs, so as you cut the muscles from having to squat that much weight start showing. Asides that, you're going to have really fricking imbalanced body.
Idk about you, but when I started, the highest weight I could move with my arms was 15 fricking lbs. My starting squat was about 90. If I only squatted 30lbs, I would be doing infinite squats. Which, because I started off with ONLY dumbells, I fricking tried, it isn't optimal at all and resulted in almost no growth. I could reach 30lbs in each arm as I progressed those, but my squats were stagnating as I was basically doing fricking cardio 60lb squats.
Theres a pretty large correleation between strength, and muscle size, at a low enough weight below your one rep max you no longer can no longer overload and are simply doing endurance training.

Just powerclean the dumbells into a squatting position before you start your set of squats
You’re an idiot. I’ve seen YouTube videos where people build squat racks with some lumber, buckets, and concrete. A 300 lb weight set with bar BRAND NEW is only like $350 at Dick’s and probably way cheaper if you search for a DYEL who gave up and is selling their set.
Post body right now I can tell you don't lift. The fricking Dicks setup is some standard bar with a 200lb capacity meant for little girls. Do you even know the cost of lumber? That shit doesn't even save you money after you buy the drills and molds and shit. Plus it makes a frick huge mess every workout when the concrete starts chipping off. I will gladly take a $10 a month payment to workout somewhere with real equipment, not mudhut African gear.
Jesus Christ this post pisses me off. It's the equivalent of saying the gym is worthless because you can do push ups and sit ups at home.
I mean, he's right, I'd be pissed off from your bullshit too. Lumber is fricking expensive, you're overpaying for a shitty setup you can buy for the same price at a sports shop.
Also, fatties saying its ok to squat with barbells, for a begginer sure, but average begginer squats much much more than they can curl. Unless you're a 300lb fatty who's body weight alone is enough to overload the muscle by simply moving around and squatting, you're going to need much more weight than your arms can hold to build muscle there. Its like a 1 to 5 ratio difference in strength between those muscle groups. I started lifting with my obese friend, I was coming from the opposite end of the spectrum on anorexic (not nervosa you morons, learn the fricking difference) skelly. He couldn't do a single body weight squat, but on the bench press he could do more than what I could do on it. Made me realize, dude's moving around 300lb weights CONSTANTLY while I'm moving around air practically. If the dude could squat a single body weight squat, he'd build leg muscle, because unlike me, he's squatting 300lbs of weight, I would've been squatting 110lbs of weight. You NEED weights to progress muscle if you're not obese, if you ARE obese, thats the only case shitty barbells would work or body weight exercises like that, you're just so fat everything you do is already weighted to overload.
The Planet Fitness business model works by actively antagonizing the kinds of clients who will actually consistently use the place. They want the kinds of clients who will buy a membership and not really show up.
They hide behind being "non-judgemental and accessible to everyone," but it's the opposite. If you actually lift heavy, they will call you a lunkhead and accuse you of "intimidating" the other gymgoers. They do this because if you lift heavy, you're likely the kind of person who will use their gym membership instead of paying for it while only occasionally going.
But that's just in general. Not every PF is like that. Each manager can run their location as they see fit, so you can find PFs that are actually normal gyms. But this is the approach they are known to have in general.
That's right. Monthly auto transactions from clients bank accounts, punish people who regularly show up and use equipment, söy mask sperm butt workers, make it as unpalatable as possible. They are hucksters who use their gym to prey on people who want to get in shape and think going once every 2 weeks is good.
QUESTION! Why does Planet Fitness have that smell?
All gyms have gym smell, but Planet Fitnesses all have a distinct smell that's the same. What is it?
I mean, it's probably a mix of
-the oil from machines fresh from the factory
-rubber from the ugly flooring
-whatever cleaning equipment they use to wipe down machines
Maybe it's the flooring.
The machines smell like machines, but that's the same everywhere. Cleaning materials are different, but the floor. That makes sense.
>noooo don't buy a $10 membership to a gym! >workout on this 1" barbell with buckets of cat litter instead!!!
Dyels. All of you. Seriously get some money.
80% of fit is people trolling/crabbing each other. There's no way a sane person would try to tell someone that you can build a decent home gym for the price 160 USD.
why wouldn't you get a home gym? it costs less than a 1 year contract at that shithole
You can't build a decent home gym for 520 bucks.
Yes you can
I said a decent home gym. Having a dogshit barbell and frick all weights is not a decent home gym.
What do you think a home gym needs? Most of those expensive machines at the gym can easily be replaced with cheap equipment that will hit the same muscles

Most people aren't moronic like you to go and flip rocks and call it a work out.

explains why all your shit is expensive
Dude wtf how much are you paying at planet fitness? I thought the most expensive plan was like ~$20 a month
Planet fitness here's most expensive membership is $9.90 a week. They do have the $5 a week membership but then you are even less likely to build a home gym for $260
All you need
Except when it comes to Squats, Deadlift, chin ups, benching etc etc
No way you're that fricking stupid

Enjoy being surrounded by minorities. Hope u go at a good time or ur not gonna be able to "bench" on the smith machine
You'll instantly mog everyone as soon as you walk in, assuming you've done some lifting in the past
This is true.
I've seen some shredded/jacked folks there, and one time this one guy was dragon flagging. Accurate in general, though
