As soon as his elbow sleeves come in he'll prove to all you haters that he can't be faded.

Years ago there was a bodybuilder- who I think was from the New England area- who found his dad dead on their bench  when the barbell got stuck on his neck. Maybe someone here might remember? The son was a middleweight BB'er.

Years ago, that chart went around. They really pushed hard to get that red warning label attached to benches, and blown up into posters for the bench areas, but nothing ever happened with it.

Thats all that is really needed for someone looking for the basic home gym. (And good Olympic set or two and some dumbbells).

Bench, Squat, Pullups, Rows, Shrugs, Rack-Pulls, Deadlifts, etc. Tons are on Craigslist and FB Market again after the RONA fiasco.
Dirt cheap...

Can also get these cheap cable set ups that you can attach to a rack

Yup, what I got for my home gym. That and a couple of good barbells(one for deadlifts/rows and one inside the rack) and enough weights for your deadlifts and you're good to go.

After that you could add to the gym buying used cheap finds. But most what I do is with the barbells and powerrack anyways so it's basically all you need. I go to the gym sometimes now anyways but mostly to play around one some machines and to look at bitches in slutty outfits because there's alot of those these days.
