>get home gym>squat rack, barbell, plates, bench, adjustable DBs>"all ill ever need">become progressively autistic about fitness>realize i also want a calisthenics station for pullups, chins, dips, and leg lifts>"all ill ever need">autism increases>realize i also want a full cable machine>realize i want a roman chair>realize i want a rowing machinebros... where does it end?
nearly everything can be added to a power rack as an attachment
>barbell with pl8s>rack>drop platform beneath rack>adjustable bench (preferably can be secured into the rack)>pull-up bar (comes with the rack)>dips bar that attaches to the rack (not a must for me, used to love 'em now they hurt my shoulder and in a shitty "it's fine while you are lifting but you'll have vague pain for 2 weeks after" way)>some contraption to secure pl8s onto yourself for the above¨>dumbbellsyou don't need moreI go to a fully equipped gym and the only things I do that can't be replicated by the above are hamstring curls, leg extensions and ez-bar preacher curls
>>76584593You don't really need dumbbells though
unless you got some weird size chinesium rack you can fit all that shit on the rackyou can get a shitty leg curl/extension thing off amazon for example, theres also plenty of diy shit on youtube if you are inclined
>>76584626>You don't really need dumbbells thoughyes, you absolutely do>DB bench, any incline variationgreater ROM, greater reliance on chest.perfect companion/accessory to training bench for strength, you can always bang out a 3x10 with the DBs and focus on movement quality rather than weight (which will be substantially less anyway if you barbell bench with a mid grip), you can't train heavy bench multiple times a week once you get past 2pl8+ for reps>seated DB curlsonly variant except for ez-bar preacher that actually hits my biceps. cables don't do shit, standing barbell doesn't do shit>DB rownice variant with some advantages>DB skull crusher, french press etcthese are a must when you invariably fuck up your wrists from doing the barbell variantsI could go on
>>76584636the issue is that I fell for the rogue fitness meme and everything they sell is hyper expensive.
>>76584764their stuff is great tho at least u get what u paid for
>>76583932berbell, two dumbbells, weights, dip/pullup station. thats all. cables are gay
>>76584636>not inclined>do it anyway
