Any bros have a home gym in condo?

My condo gym closed more than a year now and don't really have good equipments for compound movements so I'm thinking of getting a power rack from savage gear, but not sure if the tiles or floor loading can handle the weight. I worry if over time, the weight will cause the floor to sunken.

Used to squat heavy almost daily at external gym but with Covid, all closed and I really miss it. unsure.gif

Any bros can share tips/experience? Thanks in advance.

My quick recommendation would be to invest in mats as opposed to having the weights be installed directly on tiles. I routinely check mine on a quarterly basis and use a level to check if my house floor is bowing.

Thanks for replying boss.

Yup, definitely will get mats or else neighbor below sure will complain whenever I'm re-racking.

How long have you had your gym setup boss? Also, is it safer if I place it near beams?
