20K Youtube Subscriber Home Gym Tour 2024 | Ditch the Gym!

[@50CalFitness]

I added my gym up the other day, and it's around 16 grand. Great video, Congratulations on 20,000 subs.

[@74football22]

Damn, 16k.

lol i'm at 70k lucky my wife don't care

[@Quietriotou812]

I gotta say, love your channel. You've done great at really hitting all the tough points of the home gym community and covering things from all angles. I started in middle school with a piston based rower gadget that I could bench and curl with then dumbbells then power blocks and probably 20 iterations of home gyms, basement gyms to where I now have a detached garage that's evolved into a full gym. I look at it like we are all to gym products what car guys are to cars. You don't need a project car to get from point A to B just like I don't need a whole gym to get into shape but it's a fun hobby and as far as hobbies go, while I waste way too much money on it at least it's a healthier outler than a lot of hobbies. Anyway, great channel, keep up the great work.

[@NoFate247]

You hit a number of legit points. I'd rather have a home gym hobby vs car or watch. Probably run me a lot less and more practical. But to each their own. What type of layout do you have in your garage?

[@Justin.Cramer]

Nice video and a ton of great points that you made including the equipment at gyms. I remember the last day I lifted at LA Fitness and the barbell for benching literally had no more knurling on it. And waiting for any type of leg machine in the Miami area at a gym is worse than your wait at the DMV. I'm at about 3yrs now of having a Home Gym and it's fun to look back at how it started and what equipment I have upgraded and replaced. Like you a lot of items have been birthday, XMas, and Father's Day gifts.

Instead of a midlife crisis sports car, I have a midlife crisis home gym. My first was stuff I bought and put in mom's basement as a teen. Then school and commercial gyms for about 20 years before family and work made a home gym a necessity. Started with middle-of-the-road, have upgraded to quality. I won't add up the total, because it might discourage me from spending more. Nice to see your tour.

[@NoFate247]

Yeah the family life really makes it a necessity, spending time traveling to and from the gym just isn't in the cards as much when responsibilities hit. Just tell me over or under 20K in your home gym currently, if you have to guess!

[@GeneMilder]

@@NoFate247 Current value is probably just below $20k, depending on how one values some of the "vintage" stuff like 5-90 York RH set or the items I bought used. I go USA made as much as possible, and live within reasonable driving distance of Rogue, Straydog, Elite FTS, and Bridge Built. And as you know, a gym is never done . . .

[@hornedfrog6224]

Your video popped up thanks to the algorithm, and I’m glad it did. I’m a long time lifter who always looked forward to 5:00 when I would head to the local gym. But in March 2020 when the gyms closed, I immediately began acquiring home gym equipment. Since then I have acquired pieces of equipment that are better than the commercial gym equipment. The only time I work out at a commercial gym is if I’m out of town. Thanks for the video!

What's your favorite piece of gym equipment you have been able to pick up?

Then a belt from Beltfed, barbel jack, wall control, custom banner, DIY storage shelf, Amazon fire TV & wall mount so that figure is actually higher. I've also got the AB5200 2.0 and thing is a winner, vertical storage (chef's kiss). Open rackable trap bar - I totally use it for low grip deadlifts every week (I find this safer than conventional deadlifts and even squats), along with at least getting used for an incline chest press or a shoulder press variation. Specialty bars add so much variety, I love mine dearly. Good call on whole foods and getting kiddos into healthy habits - we do the same, idk if they've ever had a happy meal.
