    I bought a garden shed and decided to build a budget home gym inside. You can too. The most important criteria in nearly every potential home gym build is the cost. "How can I build a home gym on a budget?! It seems impossible."
    Although it's hard to do so on $500, it can be done.
    The other issue is the difficulty in finding a space to build a gym. Some people live in small homes with no basements and the inability to put a gym in their garage.
    So, I want to show you how I built a budget home gym in a garden shed.

      You can get a decent bar for half of that that will do the job just fine unless you mean to do olympic lifting (ie drop it) or you can deadlift 700lbs. And the real smart option on a budget is to get it second hand for even less.

I was so impressed with the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMwYg0MOXR4M-oGeyBsNSYe1aPOUoRH6D cage that I got the lat pulldown attachment that goes with it. It is equally outstanding. I don't have one complaint other than putting it together is a job. The instructions and packaging of the parts are very well designed and organized. Also, I stripped and damaged the pull down cable the first day, admitting it was my stupid fault, and they quickly replaced it at no charge. I'm 6'5, 280lbs and fit in the cage just fine. Glenn B

  • @REPfitness
    @REPfitness 3 ปีที่แล้ว +37

    This is pretty solid! But I would recommend a few swaps for people searching for a good budget setup...
    1) The standard spin lock dumbbells for about $100 for 100lb per dumbbell... not as fancy, but gives you more weight for far less cost. Swapping plates doesn't take THAT long and it saves you $500+ on that alone.
    2) The other change would definitely be our PR-1100 Power Rack... relatively compact, safeties for safer lifting at home/alone, plastic lined j-cups, a better pull up bar, and is around $249 vs what was shown in this vid is $449. It is a lifelong rack of for those lifting 400lb+? No, but it does the job for 90%+ of people and has attachments for those looking to upgrade down the road to do cable curls, lat pull down, tricep rope work, low rows, landmine, etc.
    3) Next would be our FB-3000 or FB-4000 over that amazon bench... for a bit more money, you get an 11 gauge bench with a 1,000lb weight rating. The amazon basic bench lists "maximum of 385 lbs". This actually adds about $50, but if you weigh 200lbs and benching over 175lbs... you're not concerned about a weight rating.
    4) Finally, get a nice colored covered battle rope swap for $100 vs $300.
    Big improvements, and an overall cost savings approx $850. Easily could save $1,000+ if you're working on a budget with a few other modifications.

Then, set up my Rogue R-3 and covered the floor with stall mats. Iron pipe on the wall for plate storage, Rogue barbell hangers, bands, and IronMaster dumbbells, one flat bench, and a Rogue AB-3. Things were a little tight, not much room to get the plates on the barbell, but I used that gym for like six years, and I miss it.

    @HickLif3 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Couple ideas- If you wanted to do olympic lifting inside you could add at least one more layer of plywood on top of the floor going the opposite direction of the stuff that is already there. Also when it is placed make sure you have probably double the supports underneath than what is recommended. both of those will help distribute the load more. Better yet, don't go prefab, they cut a lot of corners typically and if you build it yourself it will be cheaper and better constructed (assuming you do it properly). Use 2x8s, 2x10s, or even 2x12s for the joists and consider doubling them for even more strength and again ¾" plywood doubled, or even better 1" tongue and groove doubled with opposing directions. DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF PARTICLE BOARD FOR THE FLOOR.
    Also- just buy a good plate carrier and real quality armor plates (not steel), that way you can train with it, load it out with what you would carry on it, and you could actually use it if need be. If you want more weight get the rogue cast plates and swap them out.

    I have the 97.5 lbs version of the Baadass Dumbells. Here is my quick review. The steel is extremely high quality, better than anything I have used in the past. I can't imagine you ever damaging them. They are also accurate. I weighed each plate and every single plate was spot on except the 12.5 lbs plates. All 8 of the 12.5 lbs plates came in at 12.8 lbs. Not a problem for me. When assembled they do not rattle and they haven't loosened once so far. Although the plates are secure it's worth noting that they take a little bit longer to change than the Ironmasters. Again, not an issue since the Iron Masters haven't been in stock in ages. This probably makes them safer than the Ironmasters as well. The owner seemed friendly when I called to make an order and they arrived within 3 business days. Another important feature is that they are made in Canada, not China. However, although the materials used are high quality, I did notice there was some slop in the machining process because the plates are not all perfectly round. This might be a problem for those of you with OCD but I don't mind. Furthermore, the stickers and paint are low quality. The plates arrived pretty scuffed up and the stickers were barely legible because they were scratched up so bad. Thankfully the stickers peeled off easy (I hated them anyway). The paint also chips easily so don't bang them together too hard. Not a big deal because the stickers and paint can easily be fixed. As long as you don't mind a few cosmetic blemishes, I highly recommend this product. They will last a lifetime.

    I move every few years for work, so I’ve had to build out a full gym that is also easily broken down and adaptable to myriad spaces. A half rack, set of irons, set of bumpers, adjustable dumbbells (I went with power blocks over a decade ago), an FID bench, and a solid set of bands with attachments to fill in for cable machines as needed is perfect. Garages, office rooms, spare bedrooms in the basement, and split between rooms around the house have all been configs due to either space or noise constraints (nobody wants to hear someone sharing a wall or floor/ceiling while you’re clopping on a treadmill at 0430) This shed pretty much hits it spot on. I’m looking to settle down in the next few years and one of my “musts” has been a gym space in the house, but I’ve never really given much thought to dropping it in a shed. Only thing missing is a magical space saving leg press.

    A couple peeps asked about floor reinforcement…adding an extra sheet of 1/2 or even better 3/4 OSB will reinforce the floor for occasional drops (just screw it down on top of the existing floor).
    Nice project, looks like a dope space! So much to love here, great job!! Only minor things I’d recommend: a full safety rack if lifting alone for squats and bench. Also, fingers pointed out (vs forward) on those body weight bench dips is a little better for rotator cuffs 😇.

    Hey Coupe, its not too late to fix this. Your shed is going to sink into the yard, and rot, and piss you and your wife off. 4 Sono-tubes, one per corner and a few bags of quickcrete would be a snap. You dont have to move the shed, you can use a car jack and a couple cinderblocks to hold it up around each hole, then Bob's your uncle, peace of mind. You could even tie the shed to you back and squat it up while your friend digs the holes. Anyways, shed gym is cool. You optimize best use of your property like this, and keep the weird stuff out of the house, which is good for resale or just looking like you got it together. I suppose if i had to think about it, Id ask you how you could address this issue if you were an apartment dweller with much more limited options? Youre the guy to ask because you 1. buy your own stuff to test, then 2. actually test it and give respectable opinions if something is really great or really crap.

These 5 items, that I believe would cover almost all bodybuilding, endurance exercise. Let me know what you think of the list.
    1: Squat rack: with barbell and pull up bar and lat pull down and cable pulls with cable cross (ER KANG Olympic Power Cage Professional) 1000 Usd
    2. Adjustable heavy dumbbell set (Power block dumbbell 90 lb) 510 Usd
    3. Adjustable Leg extension and leg curl machine with Adjustable bench (ProForm Olympic Bench XT) 179 Usd
    4. Barbell, curl bar, Rope pull down, lat pull down and close grip lat pull attachments
    5. A lot of plates!
    Around 2000 Usd for a full gym.
