When I moved to LA in 2022, I lived in a 600 sq ft studio apartment. Gym memberships in my area cost $150-200/month. I was paying $1,800/year to lift weights in a crowded gym 15 minutes from my place.
So I started building my own gym. I bought equipment, tested it, returned what didn’t work, and kept refining. Two years and 100+ products later, I have a complete home gym that fits in a closet and cost less than one year of gym membership.
