Built this a couple months ago

I really wish I had the space to start building a home gym. Even figured that even buying most of the stuff new would pay itself back in 4-5 years. Perhaps in a few years... On top of the eventual savings it would make it a whole lot easier to be able to pop in for a quick workout.

Fortunately gyms never closed here (sparsely populated country, even more sparsely populated county, infections never got too bad) so my gym schedule was not affected. That isn't to say it will not happen in the future... If that happens I don't think I'll have much choice but to splurge for some adjustable dumbbells. There's a decent set of 2 x max 42.5kg / 93.5lbs for a little over 300€. With those I could at least do some type of squat and back exercises as well...

Anyways that looks nice. And ye, plates are a major pain in the ass. Who knew a lump of metal could cost so much... I'll certainly be looking for used plates people are trying to get rid of, although I suppose demand for those currently might be rather high.
