Hey guys, I've been lifting about a year now, and I'm feeling more and more it would be so convenient to have some basic equipment in my basement for quick workouts, instead of having to go to the gym every time I want to lift. I'm keeping my eye on craigslist for gear, but I want to keep it minimal (and not take up a ton of space.)
I have a set of adjustable dumbbells already, and I would try to find a bar and plates on craigslist. Possibly a bench as well. I think I would want to get this though for squatting, because it's the most minimal squat stand I've seen http://www.amazon.com/dp/B006CW02ZS/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2MYD04F3SQ160&coliid=I30QM35IWGQC2N
Anyways do you think I'd be missing anything major? I feel like I could do a lot with that setup, the big 3 for sure, plus accessory arm moves, ohp, lunges, front squats, bulgarian split squats, etc. I would collect it gradually honestly. Also if you have a home gym how much did you end up paying for everything put together?
