Home Gym: Strength Focus
Garage. Two plates each side. Safety squat bar optional. Budget ~$2k.
A complete garage strength training setup for a serious lifter who wants to squat, bench, deadlift, and press heavy without a commercial gym. Rack, bar, and enough plates for comfortable 405+ lb pulls. Flooring protects the slab, bench handles every press angle, and the whole thing fits in a single-car garage bay. Built to survive 5+ years of daily abuse without wobbling, rusting, or needing upgrades.
