Been wanting my own home fitness center for years. After a year of owning our own home, we finally built a fitness center in our basement. 24’x11’ space covered in 3/4” rubber mats. Squat rack mounted to floor and wall, barbell bench, some bumper plates and a set of adjustable dumbbells. It’s far from a complete gym, but it’s a huge step forward and enough for me to cancel my gym membership.

Garage sale days in just a few weeks. I’ll be on the hunt for anything we can use to fill out the space.

We are preparing to build a fitness center for #weightlifting and functional fitness in our basement. Ordering the flooring (3/4 inch horse stall mats) today, and maybe the rigging as well. We were planning on going with Rogue fitness. High quality and the brand we are familiar with from our #CrossFit days. But when comparing it to Rep Fitness, the price difference is kinda insane. Anyone here have much experience with #Repfitness and how it compares to #Roguefitness ?

@motoridersd Thank you! I went with #REPFitness for that one just because at the time theirs seemed like the best deal, and their mounts seemed the most substantial visually/materially. They are working well!

#garagegym is coming together! The rack arrives tomorrow, barbell sometime this week barring any disasters, and the change plates and ez curl bar and floor mats when the current gym closes in a few weeks. That’s 350# of #AmericanBarbell bumper plates and a bunch of #REPFitness stuff (bench and all the wall storage), plus other bits I already had. Squee! :3 #weightlifting #homegym #diy #progress

#Today a big pile o’ #homegym stuff arrived from #REPFitness ! A flat bench and wall mounted storage for the bench and not yet arrived bars and plates. Oh, also my #cat Noobie taking in all those ~*smells*~ 🙀

I’m finally starting to pull the trigger on #homegym stuff. I found out recently that my current gym is closing at the end of Jan. Lame, to be sure, but the coach is gonna sell his stuff! So, I drafted a list of things and, after much fretting, sent that over to him — EZ curl bar, 18 change plates, and some of his 6x4 horse stall mats all for < $300. Next is all my #REPFitness wall mounted storage, then barbell and plates, and evemtually the rack! :3 #weightlifting #powerlifting #fitness #gym
