I’m putting a small log cabin in my garden to use as a gym for my oly lifts. Won’t have much kit in it as I need the space to throw the bar around, but I’m looking for inspiration. Anyone with a home gym (shed, garage or whatever) I’d love to see your pics to inspire me!

@Mr_Healthy_Habits GIF'd his tricked out garage gym recently and there's gonna be a few threads laying around here with home gyms (I recall a lot of them displaying amazing DIY workarounds due to the pandemic).
A search will help you find those but I hope you get answers in this thread too!2 -
@MaltedTea and @Mr_Healthy_Habits - my search function is playing up (actually the whole of MFP is playing up for me at the mo) - any chance you can post the thread link for me? Thanks!0

I don't understand how to put pictures up here, I guess it changes I've done it once can't do it again.
My home gym which I don't have room for so stuff is everywhere which is a proform treadmill in my dining area and my stamina 1205 rower is next to my bed, I have a sunny bike but it's at my daughters house for her use and I have a stair step the kind you do step aerobics on and jump rope and hand weights and stretch bands. I don't use any of it enough because of my back pain. but I can slowly walk on my treadmill.
Thanks for sharing the pictures and video is great.1 -
My treadmill is the Pro Form 505CST works pretty good, although it's quiet big and takes up a lot of space even with the so called space saver feature.0

Back in January I renovated the basement and dedicated a 13 x 10 corner to my gym equipment, which was sort of haphazardly dotted all over the place until then. (The floor mats were rolled so there are plates lying around to flatten them out)

First post here. been lurking a while. Here is mine, just got it organizedish. trying to upgrade to a rack with band peg holes but, you know...12 -
After the Dad Bod/Mom Bod and Suits threads 😌, this one has got to be my fav. Top 5! It's just so nice to see the great set-ups you all have!2

My home quarantine setup. Pretty decent for a corner of a living room in a 2 BR co-op.

My little dungym. Thankful to have it these days.19 -
I am so jealous of all of you with gyms inside. Mine is on the back patio. It's fine, but it's damn cold some mornings. Luckily we dont get much rain or snow.

This is my mini mobile home gym. I also have a pull up bar. There are various resistance bands in the bag on the bottom of the cart. I'm hoping to get a power rack with weights and a cable system.2

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 🙄
