Why doesn't everyone have a homegym? A basic set up pays for itself in 5 years due to no gym membership and actually increases in value, I can sell mine now for more than what I paid for it 15 years ago.

Why doesn't everyone have a homegym?
>Why doesn't everyone have a homegym
1. Space you stupid moron.
2. Not everyone is a power shitter who only uses a bar for their workouts.
That sums it up. What a dumb thread.
1. You can easily fit one in a spare bedroom or unused dining room or even build a shed for one
2. They can come with lat machines and you can buy dumbell handles what else do you need?

Maybe in a 3rd world country.

Machines. Not everyone can squat due to injury. Same with other lifts.
Lots of people on this board are european or asian, meaning they live in a 1400sq ft flat or tiny home with 5 other people, and pay 2800 euros a month for it. As far as the americans, if you own a home a better use of a spare room would be a home office, objectively speaking.
I need
>Smith Machine
>Bar
>Stairmaster
>Treadmill
>Bike
>Rowing Machine
>45 lb weights, 25 lb weights, 10 and 5s
>20, 25, 30, 45, 50lb, and 60lb dumbells
>dip machine
>pull up bar since my wife has banished me from using in the home since I ripped off a bunch of trim
>hip abductor machine for my groin muscles
>hamstring curl and quad extension machine
>incline bench
>cables
Even if I wanted this stuff, I could only get about half of it in, or else I wouldn't feel like I got a full workout (I alternate which cardio I do based on my energy level), and I'd also have to do it on carpet, which doesn't work in my brain. Fitness is not meant to be performed on carpet.

Never has a post on IST more clearly spelled out I AM A MASSIVE LITTLE b***h PUSSY than this. Back to rddit NOW
Whatever you say man. I don't go on reddit, not since I found out is was owned by china. I'm an old gay and I've actually made it. I own a 2800sq foot home, I have 3 loving children and a loving wife, I have regular sex, I'm down 45 lbs (former fat), and I cultivate 30% of my own food. I make 150,000$ a year and I don't even know what I'm doing at work. I just bullshit because we use AGILE and head to the gym when the kids are napping or before they wake up or after they go to bed. My life is great. Not everyone here wants to be a jacked ripped arnold in his prime dude. Some of us just wanna be the hot dad and live long enough to walk their daughter down the aisle and watch their sons start successful lives themselves. Get some perspective on life and stop sperging out on people lol
Don't bother replying. I do not value your opinion.
I will frick your daughter. Just a heads up
>having a daughter
>Hits pipe
what are you supposed to do, chuck it in a river?
Think about it logically
Zeus style Persephone her
>hurr I need space

>no bar
post body
stfu moron
A lot of words to say "I'm too poor"
Everyone is poor right now we're in a global recession
cope
That's how you find good deals.
are we? I don't watch the news. I know that ever since they elected that old frick and got rid of trump, everything has gotten more expensive.
im from europe and the prices for everything is 20-25% more than 2 years ago
i live in the poonited bindom where we all live in tiny little cucksheds
Same here in Germanistan. My parents have a big farm house and I bought a second hand power rack for their basement when I still lived there but no space for such luxuries in my little cuck apartment.
That 80iq incel shooter had a pretty sweet home gym
I enjoy getting out of the house as I have 3 children under 4 years old. My gym is only a 2 minute drive away, and has every machine possible for 20$ a month. It is also open 24/7/365 with no one manning it. Its more of a "I can't study if I'm at home with distractions so I go to the library" type of concept but applied to physical fitness.
Legit that OP. You don't have small children. When you got little kids, good luck ever being at peace when you're home. There will always be something to do. If you're physically not there, you can actually focus on your workout and enjoy yourself.
Yep, not only that, you're at risk of them hurting themselves.
I also have 3 kids and I studied for my masters online just fine, along with working out in my basement with no issues. They were 4, 2, and 6 months when I started grad school.
But for me, I absolutely can't stand other humans and would hate seeing other people at the gym. Cant study in real comfort at a library either. Pick your poison kind of thing.
1. Space
2. Power shitters shilling that you can only work out with 51mm play plates and 400-600 adjustable dumbbells
So I can mog everyone else in the gym.
Many people like the atmosphere, have a cheaper gym to go to, or like going outside with people.
I am the opposite, so I have a home gym. I also have enough room to have a rack, cable home gym/machine, and a nice used market I can find almost anything cheap.
I also like old school stuff, which is only found used. Most modern gyms are kinda sterile.
I can't exchange eye conctact with girls in my home and fantasize about them being my GF later.
So I can creep on woman. I like to use their machines after them when its warm and sweaty.
i have both. Sometimes I lift at home. Sometimes I utilize equipment I dont have or i just like to be able to go somewhere different. I typically train a bit harder at a real gym. But I get a lot out of it. There's really no excuse not to have one. if you cant afford 800 dollars to set up a squat rack, by a couple hundred pounds of weights and a couple bar bells what are you doing with your life. If you dont have the space you need your own house. If you dont already own a house or are close to getting one, you need to get off of fit and fix your life.
>and actually increases in value
I'll scalp you if you try to sell me used iron weights for more than $1.60/lbs
I have a home gym and very rarely use it because my gym is excellent
It's WL only so all dedicated people, lots of friends, great coaches, fully stocked on equipment, and a fantastic atmosphere to train in
I am glad I have home gym equipment if I ever need it but if I hadn't bought it before coming to my current gym I probably wouldn't have it
God dammit I want a home gym but I have a back injury and I require machines to work out my legs. I have yet to find a reasonable solution for this. Leg presses, extensions, curls all take up way to much space. I would need 2 seperate rooms.
play ice hockey unironically
I would say go rollerblading but you have to have a hockey stick and a tennis ball or something since it is a scientific fact that it is impossible to look not gay when rollerblading independently
That's a tough one. Most good leg machines... are solo machines. Smith machines work, but not with your back probably.
Belt squat could work but then you still need a rack for other things.
Yeah most benches can do extensions+curls, but to get more mass you really need a leg press/squat of some type.
I just use these attached to my pulley machine to do curls and extensions. Leg press can you substitute for hack squats or something?
Decent idea. How effective are they for curls and extensions?
Could just do sissy squats or lunges for quads and what you suggest for the rest.
I can't use as much weight as I can on a machine, like the dumbell argument I think it uses stabilising muscles more so you're getting just a good as a workout with less weights. You definitely feel the targeted muscle moving and working and my quads are noticeable bigger, harder to tell with my hamstrings because they were big anyway
Very good to hear. Cheers for that idea. I think it might actually be what I need. Going to buy some now to test at the gym.
I found sitting or laying on a bench and doing them that way is much better than standing also. Stops any cheating
I do have a homegym but it's at my house, I live in my apartment at the other end of the state so I'll probably sell the equipment if I don't end up moving to a second house at the end of the year when my lease is up.
Even though i have a 4000sq ft. Home id rater not gym here because of two little kids and a wife.
Which mens i would have to interupt workout to change a diaper or just to "hold on to the kids for a sec". Saying "no, I'm working out" would unleash hell in the household.
When I go to the gym it is more like "good for you, have fun love you" kinda deal
not everyone can have a homegym duh
ctrl+f 0 results holy shit op did u actually
