How I Built My Home Gym for Cheap

Let’s be real: gym memberships and fancy equipment can drain your wallet fast. I set up my own home gym on a tight budget, and here’s what actually worked for me: 🔸 Measure your space first. You don’t want to buy gear that won’t fit. Grab a tape measure and jot down the numbers before shopping. 🔸 Get clear on your goals. Want to build muscle? Focus on dumbbells or resistance bands. More into cardio? You can do a ton with just bodyweight workouts or a jump rope. 🔸 Skip the big machines. Most workouts can be done with basics like a pull-up bar, a stability ball, or even DIY sandbags (just fill an old duffel with sand or gravel). 🔸 Check out used gear. I scored some solid finds from gyms closing down and online marketplaces. You don’t need a ton of cash or space to get strong at home. Start simple and add on as you go! #HomeGym #FitnessOnABudget #WorkoutTips #Health #Fitness
