Anyone got any experience with the CAP Barbell Classic 7-Foot Olympic Bar? (This on amazon for 70 bucks). Im wondering if its any good for a home gym setup with around 100 - 200 pounds of weight on it.
Here's what the garage looked like last week.
The only decent gym in my area charges $50 per month and it's always packed, so I figured i'd try building a gym for the price of roughly a one year membership (~$600).
Here's the rundown:
Total - $815
I went a bit over my budget, but I might still end up selling some of those Olympic plates. I justified the extra I spent by telling myself I can always just sell most of this stuff on CL and still end up with a relatively minimal loss compared to what I originally bought the stuff for.
I'm also probably going to buy a pair of dip handles and something to tag onto the side of the cage to hold the rest of the weights i've got stacked in the corner.
Looks like these two fit the bill
I can even buy a 1 year protection plan for just a buck
