In the bottom pic you can see my first homemade squat rack /bench press. Made with lumber, concrete and 5 gallon pails. It served me very well until I could afford my cage. 😊2

Ok added some new equipment and took some new photos. The hubby is more tech savvy than me, so he put them on a google drive so I could post a link. The current gym footprint is 625 sq ft and growing 😂

Yeah it took years of patiently shopping the used markets to collect everything for the home gym. The leg press was one of the first pieces we got though.0 -

Holy wow, it's beautiful!0 -
Here's mine. Hoping to add a squat rack soon - I've seen one with a pull up bar and dip bars attached which is very exciting! The bike/trainers/rower are things I'd gladly get rid of but the family want them for their annual use of the gym 🙄

What lighting have you guys installed? I’m getting a log cabin and looking at what wattage etc I need 🤔1

Mine is deliberately quite dim as a) I work out in the early morning and dim lighting is kinder to my foggy brain and b) I have cataracts starting and bright light is uncomfortable anyway.
The light fixture in that corner of the basement was originally one of those retractable up-down ones, probably over a pool table at one time. Even in the highest position it was in danger of getting taken out with dumbbells in overhead lifts so I put in a flush mount fixture instead.1 -
Ours is in the garage - unfortunately said garage has been given over to storage and DIY for a while, so I've had to suck it up and bring some resistance bands inside - this is an old photo before I bought boxes for the shelves and we acquired more stuff.
Tidying it up (and cleaning all the dust off it from when hubby was sanding wood...) is on the list for next week. I've just about got room to move that bar around (full size Olympic) but can't lift it overhead without closing the garage door - and I'm only short at 5'5. I'm big on free weights rather than machines, so with the addition of an adjustable kettlebell (newer than the photo) I have everything I need there.
Longer term the plan is to convert the garage into a kitchen, and then I don't know what we'll do about gym space.
