Just wondering what everyone is working with during the quarantine. I've been building my home gym for some time now.

Slow progress with my garage adaptation....
Plenty of stuff on order but due to current demand wait times stretching into 4-5 weeks.
So far have a pull up bar and a dipping station and hopefully TRX arriving next week.
Dumbells, bars, weight plates, flooring bench subject to the longer lead times :-(

Unfortunately, this is all I've got. I have to say though, I have found quite a lot of good resistance band only workouts on youtube

Nah, that's great. There are a ton of body weight only or resistance band workouts you can do so that you continue to progress or at least not lose any gains during the "quarantine"1 -

This is mine: a substantial amount of space in my livingroom. No floor mat at the moment as I try to go out whenever I get the chance. As ling as I still can

Main workout zone in my untidy hovel, though stuff is spread over the house (I live alone). I use dumbbells more than barbell, though there's a bar and some plates on the opposite side of this room. (Those are staffs and a spear in the far corner, BTW - from my kung fu past.
). Yoga mat and foam roller/other self-massage tools and a few other things are upstairs (yep) in the living room where I use them, including stuff like a exercise bands, a couple of kettlebells and a doorway pull-up bar.
Solo canoe, solo kayak, hybrid bike in standalone garage across a sidewalk from that charming mustard-yellow door.
Yes, those are sticks under the erg: Supplies for misbegotten crafts projects. I'm setting the "beautiful home photo" bar at about a minus-7 on a scale of 0-10 here, to encourage posting by others who likewise don't live someplace so lovely as the standard in the rest of this thread.5 -
This is what I have to work with. Got this stuff almost a decade ago; pulled it out of the closet. A mat, a couple 10 lbs dumbbells, a couple 15-pound dumbbells, and light, medium, and heavier resistance stretch tubing bands. Unfortunately, I don't have space at home to have much exercise equipment, but what I have works to have a pretty decent workout.

It’s not much, but I it gets the job done.
I’ve been building this gym for five years and it’s footprint is roughly 15’ square. I powerlift, so my gym reflects this.5 -
