Hi all,

Anyone prefer to workout at home?

I personally like to work alone, don't need to compete with people for the benches or machines

Sure, me too. I workout when I want and how I want.

I workout at home too....

if workout at home, you need to purchase alot of equipment?

It depends on your goal and what you want?

Generally like treadmill or indoor cycle
Multi Gym station
bench and free weights
other you can have medicine ball
many others

Dumbbells of various sizes and a bench are the basic necessities.

If you have space for a pull up bar and a dip bar, I would recommend to have them as well.

Calisthenics and weight training go really well together.

You guys mind sharing pics of your home gym? 🙏🏻

I also have some equipment :
1. Foam to protect the floor
2. Adjustable dumbbells (sad not chrome because MCO time freaking expensive)
3. Adjustable bench
4. Multi function tower - adj height (for pull-up, dip etc)

Can you use the multi function with cables?

I’m currently looking for a good but not too expensive cable machine 😅

Mine is this bench which I assume you want to use with cable :

Ohh this one, how is the bench?

For me I was thinking more of this machine for cables: https://shp.ee/246uuoa

The bench ok ok for the price you pay ...

As for the machine cable, I have initial thought of it but overkill to put at my apartment .. if landed maybe higher chance of consideration ..

You buy all this fancy stuff waste oni, after few months won't use edy.

Just get 1 x wall mounted pullup bar, and pair of gymnastic rings.

Can train pushups, chest flies, dips (once u very strong), pullups, inverted rows, Ring Bicep Curl and assisted single leg squats.
Do for 3 years be jacked.

Optional can add 5kg dumbbell for lateral raise.

I beg to differ, all my equipment at my home I utilised fully.

I much prefer to workout at home.

Ya I’m moving to a low density condo soon but I’m thinking of getting it at my place.

The gym in the condo isn’t as well equipped 😅

great tip.. only thing is can't train legs as well as with weights

I guess if u get a squat cage and rings then can train everything

I suggest you before you buy, check out your condo if they got multi purpose rack .. no rush to get

If my simple suggestion is not enough for you.

You can get rack, flat bench, barbell and plates.
No need waste money on adjustable bench, i bought adjustable bench, only ever used flat function.

Appreciate your advice 🙏🏻

I am hybrid - free weight (dumb bell) and bodyweight combined. I have bought the adjustable bench (cheap one so not that sturdy) pull up bar, dip bar and weight vest and it is working well. At least all the equipment could cover the basic of pull-push and squat

I have never been to gym before thou and I have been working out for more than 5 years at home.

Calisthenics. small playground + rings = gym

Kids 🤣 play ground with rings
Better throw it away

If you just started, why not?
I did calisthenic for 4 years before hitting gym.
