if you have home gym equipment, where is it?

My weights are in a spare downstairs bedroom.
Im considering a treadm which would have to go upstairs or a trainer for my bike so I can use it wherever in my apartment

My exercise routines are based around programs on my playststion2/eyetoy camera, kinetics, groove and HipHopAbs with Sean T. These raise my heart rate enough. I use a finger device to monitor my pulse.

I'm spoiled and live in a huge house with plenty of extra room. We have a finished basement with 8 foot ceilings. The treadmill is in the main room of our basement since my husband likes to watch TV while running on it. All of the weight equipment is in a smaller room in the basement.

Basement FTW.

Mine is in two rooms in the basement. Treadmill & bike is in the bigger room where the TV & DVD player and stereo is. I also do my DVD workouts there. The spare bedroom in the basement has the weight equipment.

I keep weights on the kitty climber since my cat died.

the previous homeowner converted the one-car garage into a bedroom, long and narrow. Doesn't work as a bedroom, but works great for a workout room. No machines, only weights, with a bench and room for cardio via workout dvds on computer.

When I have my own house, I wanna set up the basement like this. Except trade the elliptical for a treadmill.

This is mine:

Except, my apartment flooded so they replaced the carpets and didn't put the mats down and punched a hole in the wall when they put the rack back lol

There are dumbbells in the room as well

I have a spare bedroom where I have a Bowflex and a recumbent bike.

Small city apartment dweller here. My bike on a trainer is right in the living room, with my husband's bike living behind the couch (we keep mine out most of the time since we can both ride my bike, and his is too tall for me)

Most everything else is fairly small, since we do have a gym membership. But we keep exercise mats, hand weights, resistance bands, stepper, etc are usually left out, but we do store them behind a folding photo wall thing in one of our corners, just when people come over though so they don't trip over it.

I have a treadmill in my living room. It doesn't really look weirder than anything else. We aren't going to be in the pages of a magazine for our decor and we don't really have formal gatherings so function matters more than looks.
Our kitchen would be too crowded with exercise equipment in it.
I'd kind of like to move the treadmill to the room we have our computer in because I could use it more without bothering others there.

In our old flat we had a gym in the 2nd bedroom of a 2 bed place. Now we have a fully equipped gym with machines (rower, treadmill, elliptical and vibrating plate) and a dumbbell block plus other bits and pieces in the garage which also has a TV on the wall and mirrors across one whole wall. The stuff we've got isn't top of the range but it does the job.

I also have some smaller Dumbbells and a yoga mat in the room I work in along with my PC and do workout DVDs in there between work as I work from home.

We have some kind of all in one apparatus in the basement which my son occasionally uses. It's too overwhelming for me. We have a stationary bike in the family room which I occasionally use, but the seat hurts my bum, unlike the bikes at the gym that are pretty comfy. However, I have a set of cheap dumbells in varying weights in my bedroom from Walmart that I have had for years. I've used them a lot lately with all the snow days. I must admit, they're the cheapest equipment and the ones I get the most use out of.
