I might have to switch to training in my garage in the near future. I already own some equipment, but I am interested in the other opinions what the most effective use of a small space is and what equipment is absolutely necessary, multiple use, effective and or just plain fun to own.

Here’s the list of things I already own in order of importance to me:

  • barbell + weights
  • jump rope
  • airbike
  • sandbag
  • wall ball
  • adjustable kettlebell
  • dumbbells (hex 15kg, 22.5kg, but I’d upgrade to an adjustable one)
  • resistance bands
  • torque tank m1 (a quiet magnetic resistance sled, so you don’t annoy neighbors)
  • box (for box jumps, squats, other accessory)

I also consider buying:

  • rower
  • drop pads
  • some type of squat rack with a pull up bar

What do you use most often or consider essential in any other way in a garage gym?

    I think, most likely I would miss a pull-up bar.

    A rower would be nice, but if you going for really heavy weights, drop pads would also protect your floor at heavy touch and go deadlifts…
