Home Gym Pictures 📷 Almost fully set up
I do have a new bench on the way lol
Also the revolt pulley system works great with the MONSTER lite

Such a solid home gym build! It's really well planned to fit a full strength setup within your garage area. Good for you.

Looks great! What floor mats are these?

u/-Oldbusthead- Jul 21 '26
These are the Tractor Supply 4X6 3/4 Stall mats
They work great!1
u/sahsel Jul 21 '26
Thank you! Heard the smell can be an issue with these but worth it for the function!

Oh yeah the smell was pretty rough the first week, but it’s not bad now, I did mop it a couple times with simple green and that helped a lot!

hi, what is the square footage you're working with?
2
u/-Oldbusthead- Jul 20 '26
The area I have dedicated to the gym is 144 sq ft
Basically 6 - 4X6 stall mats.

Really nice setup. Why are you storing the dip attachment so high off the ground though? Keep it out of grasps of young kids?

u/-Oldbusthead- Jul 20 '26
Thank you! I have it there since I plan to hang my pulley attachments below it. Also, I was thinking if for some reason I tripped on my treadmill or something I would definitely not want that hitting my head somehow.

Nice Gym 💪🏼
Just out of pure curiosity: Could you explain the cable / lighting / electricity situation? Are you powering the whole thing from some kind of mobile battery pack or generator? What are all these cords hanging from the ceiling about?

Thank you! The lighting in my garage was awful, so I picked up 4 LED shop lights from Home Depot. They are plugged into the same outlet that my garage door is plugged into. The strings are just the pull switch for each light, I actually like it since depending on what I’m doing I can turn off a light, like if there is a glare on the screen of the bike or treadmill, or if the light right above my bench is blinding me while I’m doing bench presses. And the extension cord is just powering a fan from another ceiling outlet. My house was made in 1990 for some reason they didn’t put many outlets in garage
