Yes.

No honestly

The ritual of going to the gym and the purposeful atmosphere is a bigger deal than people give it credit for

This, home gyms are a meme. I couldn't workout if I didn't have the atmosphere and social environment a small gym gives me. Has everything I need and more, plus I know almost everyone I see every single day. There's really never a time I can go to the gym and not recognize people there. Seeing others grow, others seeing you grow, the help you get from others, it all comes into play. Even professional bodybuilders like Arnold, who can afford a home gym, prefer the atmosphere.

i've been going to the gym at 4am just to avoid people and workout alone, so i would think so

but i'm an autist, so what do i know

That sounds cornhole as fuck buddy.
I exercise exclusively at home so I have complete control and concentration.
Mire myself in the mirror for T-boost and self critique.
Plus I have cameras set up at different angles for form checks.

I’ve done both and there are advantages and disadvantages to both. Most important thing is to use whatever gym you have consistently; at least 3 times a week. No excuses.

>being an extrovert sounds cornhole as fuck
Okay then

You're beta if you need to see others working out just to lift yourself

Same. When I went to commercial gyms, other people were a hindrance, not inspirational. Getting a home gym was the best Jow Forums decision I ever made. It's paid for itself in gym fees several months back, so my workouts are now free for life. No having to wait to use equipment. Nobody eyefucking me impatiently while I take luxurious rests between sets. Zero travel time or costs. I get to use my own shower. I can lift bollock naked if I want, blast my own music and shitpost on Jow Forums between sets. Living the dream.

I have $8K saved up and could make a pretty nice home gym in my backyard for probably less than $500.

But is it worth it or is going to the gym part of the motivation?

Theres a couple of things to take into consideration. For me home gyming was a sad and lonely time.

I'm already sad and lonely so who cares

Fags

What porno is this from? I need to know.

This. Nothing like airing your nuts whilst squatting and listening to hootie and the blowfish

Its easier for me to stay motivated knowing I can just walk down to the garage every time I want to work out.

I like my home gym because gaps in my schedule I had before can now be filled with lifting, whereas before going to a public gym added an extra 30 minutes that I may not have had.

it works for me.

but as you can see, going to the gym works for some people

so whatever

But you can be sad and lonely with opportunities or sad and lonely in isolation

to me commute is my biggest motivation killer, and that's cause it's a 5min drive

depends if you enjoy the "company" and mires, i much rather lift alone since i get embarassed from failing a set or lifting baby weight, and i want to stop wearing headphones 18h a day

i got rid of my home gym because i couldnt stop overtraining
>bored
>weed
nah,gym
>video games
nah, gym
>women
nah, disregard women. acquire mass.

but i lost all my gains and also going to the gym puts you in perspective so you can feel like hot shit but not too hot shit

This. Love my home gym

2 more years till i graduate and move out, then i can start thinking about getting one, till then it's 4am lifting for me, i can't fucking stand people in the gym taking space for memes, telling me deadlifting is bad and counting their reps aloud.

at least the gym has a sauna i guess

same I recognize her but I don't remember the name

for some people yes, it works for me

non-home gyms BTFO

Yes. You do get a boost at the gym from trying to impress qts and mog other guys, but it's not worth working around restrictive hours or potentially having to wait for equipment.

Introvert? Yes
Extrovert? No

I have a great hike gym but I still like to go to the gym. Home gym allows more flexibility and freedom, full gym is there for PR sessions and whenever it’s convenient.

Im not OP but there are pictures of her in the brown thread on /s/

>the chad gym rat
>cant workout if there isnt at least 10 people watching/cheering him on
>has never even heard of a home gym
>friends with everyone he meets
>calls everyone "bro"

Idk why I feel like her bhole isn't as fresh as I'd hope.

probably tastes like leftover curry

She has an excellent kitchen.

It looks better than her actually.

It’s not her Kitchen it’s some rich guys. This girl was on Eccie and is an escort.

Fucking perfect. What is her name, I want to destroy that indian pussy.

sweet as fuck, user

She was a Dallas escort but her account was disabled months ago or I would’ve banged too. She’s Latina btw.

>latina escort

Fuck, that just means she was probably way better than any indian ho.

What did she go by? Maybe she got a not handle? Some girls do that.

Google Camilla Cruz Eccie. There’s some nudes out there but Eccie shut down so it’s only what google has saved.

It might have done something like TER did. Shutdown only in the US.

Depends on your personal situation

If money is a problem you will need to weight up between a membership + fuel costs (if its far away) vs just buying a home gym outright. Long term, if you're talking 10+ years of working out, a homegym is far cheaper. The gear will survive forever.

Also time; a home gym saves you a metric fuckton of it. 40 minutes and you're done, no time getting ready, you can fucking workout naked if you want. You underestimate how much time you save just waking up, having breakfast, workout, showing, do your day as opposed to going to a gym.

But the big thing a gym can give you, depending on where you live, and the gym, is a social setting. Plenty of people find dates/gfs/friends in gyms because the more social situations you put yourself in the more likely you are to actually connect with people. Working out and having muscles means nothing if you're not social enough to actually use it.

Also lookup Catalina Cruz Eccie while you’re at it. I tongue punched her fart box, ate her perfect pussy and fucked her. So worth it.

No, you didn't.

She’s literally an escort. Why is it hard to believe faggot?

Because you only found out her name from a few posts above?

I’m the same one who posted the name of the other girl dumb fuck

No you ain't, virgin. Other dude didn't even fuck her.

>She was a Dallas escort but her account was disabled months ago or I would’ve banged too. She’s Latina btw.

Camilla Cruz is the girl from OP pic. Catalina Cruz is a different Latina escort. They were friends. Reread the posts assblaster

Jesus, user.

>I can lift bollock naked if I want, blast my own music and shitpost on Jow Forums between sets.
This basically sums it up.

No that’s a pornstar not the same girl. Google “Catalina Cruz eccie”. She’s a Latina hottie

Shit. I think p411 is shutting down too. They've closed registration for new members and escorts and won't let me renew my membership (expires in october so I'm good for a while).

Hookers are really going underground now.

Thinking of getting
>two adjustable dumbbells (technically powerblocks) that go from 5 to 90lbs in 5lb increments
>adjustable bench
>a pullup bar

Is there anything else I really need? Going for aesthetics.

>powerblocks
A fucking overpriced meme. Just buy plate loaded dumbbell handles (spinlock preferably), that way you can load on as much as you'll ever need

I’ve been having great success on SeekingArrangements. I’m 29, tall, fit, decently good looking and make 6 figures. My competition are mostly older guys. I’m literally swimming in high quality 20 year old pussy right now. Average price is around 300 for the night. Last Saturday I got a blowjob just for dinner and drinks. It’s been pretty good for me.

Buy a barbell dummy

>tfw no brown semen-demon gf

Why? I'm not trying to be a powerlifter. What exercise do I need to do that requires a barbell and has no dumbbell equivalent?

damn those genetics bestowed her the flattest of asses

Man, I just want to fuck. I don't want to be around gold diggers.

>punching bag looking lonely in the corner
PUT IT BACK UP

yuckie

clean your fucking basement you lazy fuck

Use tinder my dude. For me giving these young hotties an “allowance” is worth my time saved swiping through the uggos of tinder. Bringing one of vacation with me to the Maldives this summer for a week of fucking on the beach.

Okay not actually on the beach. In my villa over the water obviously

I might be moving to Texas in the near future, but I'm probably setting myself up for disappointment with overweight goblinas.

Nah Texas has a lot of hotties. The warmer the weather the higher percentage of fit hotties. Just don’t move to a shitty city.

Absolute necessities for a home gym?

Attached: 1477801190571.jpg (2600x1950, 1.05M)

Personally getting a home gym only served to further isolate me from other people, which exaggerated my autism. I feel much better now that i'm back at the gym.

barbell
weights
rack
stall mats to stand it on

everything after that is buy-as-you-need

idk mate there are seriously some days where the biggest obstacle between me and working out that day is the drive to the gym

i think it would be a good way to get fit. no slobs sweating all over benches

that shelf almost definitely isn't meant to support that much weight

Can i build a home gym with 600 USD?
any tips on how to get one cheap?

craigslist

my part of southern california sucks
it feels like whats listed isn't much of a deal

Just hire some illegals to help you steal it.

Pls clean it

>tfw no inda GF

This. Although to be fair a crowded gym full of DYELs is a lot worse than working out alone

Ok Patrick bateman

Nigga that looks like silent 2 the gym area

After a hard work out do you then lie down on the orange couch and wank off to Tay Tay? I know I would.

Going for leatherfacemode I see

ask yourself:
>am i antisocial?
>do i do it for me or everyone else
if your answer is "no" and "both" then dont get a home gym.
Antisocial does not mean autistic lonely or shy. I am antisocial. I lift because I spent my childhood skinny weak and defenseless. I lift for myself and I only interact in small groups when I feel its appropriate, I dont feel lonliness unless it pertains to sex.
I dream of the home gym where I can die peacefully crushing my sternum while trying to max on bench press alone.
That was a joke. If a stranger has ever saved you in the gym, dont get a home gym.

Depends on the person, I personally can't stand having other people around checking what I'm doing or not.

>tfw not getting punched
>i bet nobody here can even handle a kick to the head
>lol i bet that fan can't even do ceiling hangs 1x1200 days
>tfw when would rather be hanging around at my home gym

I’ve got 3 years gym experience and 3 years home gym experience in the last 6 years

Both have their positives and negatives, for me personally, the positives of the home gym are superior to the positives of the normal gym.

The whole reason I even got into a home gym was because I absolutely HATED having to deal with the gym being overfilled, or the gym being closed at certain days or times for X or Y reason. Nothing kills motivation more than being all hyped to get to the gym and when you get there it’s super crowded and you can’t even begin your session the way you want to. Too many times I had to start ineffective workouts on machines because all the benches, plates, barbells and racks were all in use at the same time by groups of bro’s.

This happened to me today. All my lifts were shit after that. Most gyms are shit. The only time I can see a public gym being Superior to a home gym is when it's a gym full of regulars who are all seriously and mostly know each other.
But knowing this just makes me wanna build a secret home gym for me and all my buddies. That sounds nice.
