    Basement or garage. Garages have the advantage of having higher ceilings so doing any standing overhead presses aren't an issue. Plus it's a hell of a lot easier to get equipment into a garage than into a basement. Main drawback is going to be temperature. It will be hot in the summer and cool in the winter.

      Women have the mentality of 9-year-old children mixed with puppy dog energy. I have never once listened to the advice of any woman except my mother or my grandmother.

    Blaming his wife for turning the place into a bar absolves him of any responsibility for being too lazy to use his home gym.

    basement is best, so long as you have enough ceiling height to OHP with full ROM. Otherwise you have to go with the garage where you (a) might be cucking space for a car, and (b) need to deal with extreme heat/cold in summer/winter

        No grownass man likes those type of chairs, they only appeal to women and metrosexual hipster homosexuals.

        No. They're designed to help cheap restaurants achieve fast table turnover by subtly encouraging people to get up and leave when they're done eating. They're uncomfortable *and* easy to stand up from on purpose. The chairs facing the wall are even typical of the window-facing seating that normally goes in front of a narrow eating shelf, intended to discourage small parties and single patrons from taking up a whole table and encourage them to leave even faster.

        She literally designed an entertaining space in her own home by copy and pasting the layout of spaces that exist to make people frick off.

    The garden. When the pandemic shut everything down I just defaulted to weighted calisthenics and lifting random shit like big rocks and logs. Once the gyms reopened I realized there wasn't a single excercise I couldn't do with literal rocks and sticks and rope. I'm not sure how to measure progress since obviously the stuff I lift isn't measured so I can't say it's plain better than the gym. All I know is that I prefer it. I noticed better support musculature definition and surprisingly no injuries or strains at all in over 1 year. Im a skinny frick, my deadlift max was 190kg in the gym with a barbell and rack and atm my max lift is a rock I weighed outta curiosity and it was only 132kg but it's a fair bit harder to grip. I kinda regret weighing it. I've realized I enjoy not precisely measuring my progress. I have lots of rocks of different sizes and once I've masted the 132kg one I've affectionately dubbed "The second largest red one" I'll move on to the "Largest of the pear shaped brown ones". It's kinda zen. No people, no machines, no smell of stale locker room sweat and 20 different deodorants and cheap perfumes. Just me, the rocks , the birds and the neighbors cat.

    It sucked a bit in the winter though. I had to wear gardening rubberised gloves and pour boiling water over the rocks to not numb my fingers. Keeping warm wasn't an issue once you worked up a sweat though.

    that picture makes me so angry
    before: can use room to train, play video games, watch movies or just socialize in great comfort. If more guests come you just bring down cushions from upstairs and everyone has a great time
    after: Cant use room to train, the screen isn't even facing the chairs, the seating arrangements are uncomfortable, four extra chairs just taking up space, wtf is the bench for, just to stare at the opposite wall?

    The best room to put a gym in is probably the living room. A garage will make the barbells and kettlebells cold in the winter. In the summer the garden is best (but you need an overhang to protect equipment from rain).

    When I have the time I'm going to build a workout shed. It'll be pretty large, I'm thinking window AC unit and space heater. I have a few acres so space on my property isn't a problem, I'd just like the home gym to be separated and sort of like a sanctuary of lifting.
