Show off your home gym

My gym is currently in my master bedroom.
It's a bit limited as I'm buying plates as I need them.
My second bench that I use for hip thrusts and my yoga mat for floor work.
I also have an over the door bar for pull ups, chin ups and leg raises.

I'm looking at getting a Titan fold away rack. I still want to park in the garage.1

Really like the all black look.
Here is mine.

I love seeing what other have done with their home spaces.

Backside supports are holding dumbbell bars, on top is curl bar.
Back to front usage - Squat rack, bench supports, safety catch, bent-over row/DL bar holder (no weights dropped on floor desired either), OHP/incline bench supports, incline safety catch, pullup bar.
Custom built for my size, so non-adjustable, so I better not grow or shrink.
I am needing to add some extra height to bottom support that is removable, for calf stretch mainly, but calf raises too.2 -

Nah. I don't drop weights. And the floor is only laminate. We plan on going hardwood in a few years so I'm not too concerned. I'll be moving to basement most likely in a few months when I've cleared room.1 -

I couldn't wait to move my gym from the garage to the basement. Year-round training at home.1 -
In the spring I'm constructing a large shed/small garage that will contain all my weight equipment. Its currently all on my back porch which I've enclosed "temporarily". Plus my wife has a recombant bike and an eliptical in our spare room.
Never thought I'd have quite so much fitness related stuff.1 -
This is both envy inducing and hilarious. My little kit in my one bed London flat. Pull my coffee table back via the rug it on to create a space for my rubber mat (thanks Beachbody for once!). Oh and all my mats are currently kitten ravaged, will replace once he's not so hell bent on destroying them. I also have a pull up bar (not in use as yet.....) and an overdoor suspension thing but I don't really have anywhere with practical width for it but it's there for some stabilisation and strength stuff when I can be bothered.
But, this is all to show it's not what you got but how smartly you use it. I get in my cardio, strength and flexibility in without ever setting foot in a gym in not much more than the space of a yoga mat.

These are impressive home gyms. I'm only starting to collect so far I have only a few kettlebells and dumbbells.0

Did you construct your own cage?0 -

Yes......
Now I'm waiting for the "what workmanship!" - which can go 2 ways as a comment.
You might recognize the hardware holding the wood together as that for decks. Their load limit is is way high enough, and generally they are true to keep parts at right-angles. I'm sure if I ran in to it at just the right angle with back full of loaded bar, I might cause an issue. But normal usage is solid.
And only had a light plate slide off dumbbell bar once and ding the floor. "character mark"0 -
