    I wnna get back into the gym, but just have a hard time making time when I spend 2 hrs a day driving to and from work and I gotta make my own dinner and clean up. 😩

    How do you do it?

      I have a home gym setup in my apartment. It takes up one corner of my living room, but I’ve got a squat rack/pull up bar, an adjustable bench, barbell, easy curl bar, dumbbell barbells (like two really short barbells), a weight belt for weighted pull ups, and a cable system I can hang from the pull up bar to do cable stuff, like cable tricep extensions. The rack I got can also fit a dip station so I plan is to get one of those eventually. It’s surprisingly compact. I live in a small one bedroom apartment so it’s not like I have tons of space. To me the convenience is worth having exercise equipment take up a good portion of my living space. I built it up over a few years, since the start of covid basically, so it seems like a lot of stuff, but only the squat rack takes up much space. To start you can get a cheap adjustable rack, barbell plate/bar set, and a bench, and with that you can work your whole body.

        That is everything I’d need. Idk how I’d work that into my small ass 1 bdrm, but now you’ve got me thinking about it.

        Thanks for sharing
