I Built a Home Gym in Japan! (and it was surprisingly cheap)

Despite being able to stay in Japan only for up to 1 year, I regardless decided to build a home gym instead of going to commercial ones!

What's more insane is the fact you have the space to built a home gym in the first place.

If you want cheaper, and better dumbbells than the short handles, I got rid of my short loadable dumbbell handles for Kensui Adjustabells, they are like $40 for a pair (70lb max weight per handle) or $100 for the upgraded ones (150lb max weight per handle), and they make movements way easier that require clearance. It is basically like having Ironmasters that use olympic plates and are way slower to change weights with, but they can be the same size as fixed dumbbells which makes them way more usable IMO. I don't have a rack, so my barbell is for deadlifts and bent over rows mostly, so I really use my dumbbells more than anything, and despite the low cost these things are an absolute lifesaver.

@Livakivi 8 күн бұрын

For the price they seem like they could be pretty good, esp if its faster to change the weights.

I also built most of my home gym off Amazon. Try hitting the bottom of the cable assembly (the center rod) with some WD-40/other lubricant. It makes my budget power rack's cables noticeably smoother immediately especially with lower weight for smaller muscle exercises.

@Livakivi 10 күн бұрын

I thought of doing that, but haven't done it yet because I don't want the cable rod to become oily as I occasionally grab it or bump into it due to the lack of space haha

lol please tell me the "Harness for neck extensions" at 6:33 is a joke. I thought "neck curls" at 3:34 was but now I'm not sure. PSA: please do not do "neck" exercises, working your traps (trapezius muscles) is much safer and will make your neck a lot more thick. You can achieve this by doing shrugs, lateral raises, and rows.

@sakaturaus7373 11 күн бұрын

there is nothing wrong with doing neck curls. many professional athletes do them and there is evidence that neck strength prevents concussions (it also make you look big as hell).

With olympic weightlifting shoes, I don't find it that problematic to squat on them. It's still not perfect and I wouldn't host competitions on them, but just for getting the working sets done I'd say its enough for the time being.
