The home gym buying guide
Buy around the training you will repeat and the space you can actually use.
Research-ledClearly sourced
Choose the training center
A rack centers barbell training. A functional trainer centers cable variety. An all-in-one combines systems but can introduce compromises in working space and attachments.
Calculate usable space
Add room for plate loading, bench movement, cable travel, pull-ups, bar length and access to adjustments.
Check the expansion path
Compare attachment compatibility, hole size and spacing, cable ratio, stack upgrade options and whether proprietary parts remain available.
