Kettlebell is best bang for buck in space for exercise but learn the swings from a trainer to avoid injury. I took a seminar years ago from Pavel and doing a few sets of kettlebell swings cooks me good from cardio and full body workout. Now slowly adding to gym with a set of USA made dumbbells, adjustable bench and trapbar for trap squats, pulls and deadlifts.
Good advice! I put horse stall mats down and working on insulation, lighting, heating and cooling. Still building and just have dumbbells and kettlebells for now and a trap bar on the way for trap squats, pulls and deadlifts. My garage has weird shape that makes it especially challenging. I need to remove a bunch of shelving that came with the garage and repaint, finish the walls and add mirrors and lighting and sound system.
Great points
Great video! My power rack is a place to use my rings, landmine, TRX, dip handles, and Crossover symmetry bands. I don’t need an expensive rack or barbell because I’m not squatting, pressing, or deadlifting with a barbell, and an inexpensive Olympic bar is perfect for landmine usage. I did however, put money into other equipment, the accessories to use on the rack, an adjustable bench, and a set of dumbbells because I prefer using dumbbells for my weight training. I train hard and my gym is perfect for me. It’s refreshing to see a gym equipment KZreadr who understands that a quality home gym looks different for each person.

@@GymCrafter indeed so helpful! Good call on Cooper his site is fantastic as well. So much good insight to help us avoid costly mistakes. My splurge this year was a full 5-50lb set of Iron Grip USA dumbbells. Expensive at 5k plus but my favorite on the planet and I will use these forever!
Love your channel. Your videos are honest and full of useful info. Keep up the great work!

@@GymCrafter that is why I splurged on my favorite Iron Grip made in USA dumbbell set this year :-) as I will use them forever. I still own my two kettlebells from 15 years ago and use these in home gym startup.
This channel is what happens when a boomer finds a camera, laptop, and thinks they know stuff about gym equipment.

ikr! The nerve of this guy to think that someone his age knows about home gyms AND wants to put it on YT! Someone should take his gym and camera away and check him in to the retirement home where he belongs!

@@GymCrafter we appreciate your channel and website so helpful! I am building my garage home gym since I don't have time to drive to commercial gym and don't have infinite space or funds. For me some dumbells and kettlebells start my gym with Precor Elliptical trainer work well. Next year, want a nice power rack.
