Home Gym Essentials

It depends on how you train. For barbell training, start with a rack, an Olympic barbell, weight plates and a bench, plus a pair of collars to hold the plates on the bar. Dumbbells, kettlebells, cardio equipment and flooring can be added to suit your space and budget.

Start with a barbell, a bumper plate package and a squat rack. That covers squats, presses, deadlifts and rows. Add a bench next. If barbell training is not your priority, a pair of adjustable dumbbells or a kettlebell is a good first buy for a small space.

Measure the usable floor area, the ceiling height, the doorway and how far the garage door travels. Compare those with the dimensions on each product page, then allow room to load the bar at both ends and move the bench. Send us your measurements if you would like a second opinion.

Yes, if you are lifting a barbell. Rubber flooring protects the concrete and your plates, gives you a stable footing and reduces noise. Cover the area under the rack first, and add drop mats where the bar lands if you lift from the floor.

Tick the kinds of equipment you want, such as a rack, dumbbells or cardio. The builder then shows the options for just those, with live prices and stock, and keeps a running total. When you add the build to your cart, each piece is added separately, so you can still change or remove anything before you pay.
