Home gym is surprisingly great

[Wallenberg]

No other people who use equipment when I need it. I can blast music without headphones. Food can safely be in the oven while I lift. I can spend time between sets at the computer instead of my phone.

Need 1000 dollars worth of plates to train my deadlift PR.

Yeah, weights are surprisingly expensive. I thought it would be cheaper to produce them. But high demand currently because gyms are closed in many places.

Get a redlight lamp and workout shirtless and point it towards your chest.
I get insane euphoria working out like this

What equipment do you have? I'm also building my own. Big space, big speakers and big weights. Will post picture here when it's done

You can buy some cheap exercise devices, rubber bands or simply build your own with just a few rupees.

Just barbell, plates, and dumbbells. Also "thick mat" protects the floor from weights and makes doing abs exercises nicer.

I need an incline bench and lateral pulldown machine or chin-up bar for my "home gym" to be complete for my current needs. However, my apartment complex has a gym that is technically closed (but not in practice) that has these things. I do incline bench and lat pulldown there and then come back and do the rest of the lifts at home.

When you have equipment in your house you don't have excuses. "It's cold or raining outside, I can't go to gym" "Going to gym takes too long" etc

No, but lately whenever I search on youtube for something improvised, home made, info about exercises, computers, phones, whatever, I get tons of Indian clips...

Many people build home gyms now because of corona so I bet they are milking it.
