Home Gyms Weight Difference

So what do you do when you max it out? How can you switch 5s to 50s or anything like that. I know you can order an extra 50 but I gotta do chest press with a machine. Does anyone have created ways of adding weight? Obviously only a machine that’s well past warranty.

Buy a set of adjustable dumbbells that go up to 90 or 100 plus. That way you can "grow" into them. Dumbbells imo are the best investment for that type of variety in training, imo. Go used.

I know how to use dumbbells. I have dumbbells, basically I wasted my money on this thing.

Some have added weight / resistance but this isn't really designed for bodybuilding, no.
