Building my garage gym is one of the best investments I’ve ever made. No matter the weather, or the traffic, or how much time I have available on a given day, I know I can always get to the gym (my gym) and get a workout in. If you’ve been thinking of setting up your own home gym, the Amazon Big Spring Sale is a good time to start buying the essential pieces. Here are my picks for what I’d get if I were just starting out.
In total, the core items add up to $1,301. That's $210 for a set of adjustable dumbbells, $65 for a weight bench, $312 for a starter barbell set with bumper plates, $300 for a Titan squat rack (plus $114 for safeties), and $300 for an entry-level spin bike. You can even add another pair of 45-pound bumpers and a few accessories and still stay under $1,500 for the whole shebang.
The best Big Spring Sale deals on dumbbells
But if I can only pick one thing, I'll go with adjustable dumbbells. Adjustables can be pricier than buying a few starter pairs of dumbbells, but are generally cheaper than buying an entire set of the fixed dumbbells that they replace. The Powerblock Elite EXP are a popular option on sale right now for $339.15, and they go up to 50 pounds. You can also get expansion sets to take them up to 70 or even 90 pounds. For a budget pick, these CAP adjustables are only $209 for a pair, and they also go from 10 to 55 pounds.

If you like to do bench press or incline presses, a good bench is going to be one of your core home gym purchases. Look for one with a large weight limit (remember, it has to support you and whatever you’re lifting) that can adjust between flat and inclined positions. This bench from NICEPEOPLE fits the description.

You have a decision here: iron plates or bumpers? Bumper plates are made of (and/or coated in) rubber, the better to harmlessly bounce when they hit the ground. They’re a little quieter for deadlifts, and are essential if you’ll be doing Olympic lifts. They also allow you to bail from squats without needing safety bars on your rack, so long as you’re familiar with how to do that without risking injury.
This set includes a barbell (standard, Olympic-sized, with 2-inch sleeves) plus enough bumper plates to get you up to a 260-pound total—all for $312. Fill out your collection with more 45-pound plates like these for $53 each.

I would avoid most cheap squat racks you find on places like Amazon, since you can’t install safety bars (to lower the weight onto if you fail a lift). A safety-less squat stand is fine if you’re bailing squats with bumper plates and always doing your bench presses with a spotter (that is, a person who stands by to help if you fail). If you’re fine with those precautions, you can skip the safety bars.
That said, many of those cheap racks will advertise some kind of “spotter arm” that turns out to be basically useless for that purpose, and these racks don’t generally take standard sizes of spotter arms, so I would make sure to buy a type of rack or squat stand that can take a real set of safeties or spotter arms. Among the items on sale right now, my budget pick would be the Titan T-3 squat stand, which is $300 for the 72-inch version (great for garages with low ceilings). The spotter arms are also on sale right now, for $114 a pair.

The best type of machine is going to depend on your preferences. Some people love a rower but can’t stand a treadmill, or vice versa. Pick what works for you, but I’m going to recommend a spin bike. A good bike is cheaper than a good treadmill, and takes up less space. It’s more convenient than a rower, not least because you can more easily scroll your phone or watch videos during a workout—which means you’re more likely to actually get on the bike rather than skipping that part of the workout. (Just me?)
My pick here is this $300 Yosuda Pro spin bike with a 35-pound flywheel and 350-pound weight limit. It’s sturdier and more adjustable than the cheaper bikes out there, but still a good value for the money.
