A thread died for this...
Non-meme answers only please. Thanks.
Just put it on a ground level floor then you don’t even have to stress about it. Boom, problem solved retard. What’s the worst that can happen? Pretty sure you already know so why even ask. Sage
but that is the most likely scenario you won't use it.
not really sure what you want to know anyways. your question is vague.
You throw a kettlebell out the window?
You asked a meme question
Not going to lie, to be honest you could loose your job as soon as you finish moving all of your equipment upstairs
>What’s the worst that could happen if I put a home gym on the second floor of my house?
you won't use it.
>waifu comes home
>OP drops loaded barbell onto the floor
>falls through the floor, strikes waifu in head
>OP is alone and bored again and goes back to shitting up the board
The best case scenario however is similar, except it hits you on the head.
You drop the 180kg bar while doing dead lifts and fuck up your bullshit wooden floor boards.
You'll still have a bunch of expensive junk laying around, but it'll be on the second floor.
your wife's bull has to climb the stairs to workout

Assuming you are not some retarded power lifter you should be fine.Your floors are made to hold your fat ass, plus additional fat asses on furniture without issue. If you have some machine like a lat pull down or gay bowflex equivalent where the counterweights are moving up and down on a rail, then place the center of the weights over a floor joist for the best support in the event you slam the weights.
I have all my stuff placed this way and have not had a problem but I also have solid 2x12 beams from the 60s. If you are still worried put down a sheet of plywood/OSB and if you drop the weights then at least you help spread the load out.
If you make a proper lift platform out of a couple plywood sheets and a horse stall mat you are way more likely to hurt yourself lifting too much with poor form than your structure
If you don't exceed 40 pounds per square foot for the overall floor area it should be fine, structurally.
You laugh but these ghetto "gym" kept me fit during covid.
Did anybody here try looking for weights during the first few months of Covid? It was like a year before I finally was able to get a couple dumbells at Target.
There was a period when I was going to dick's every delivery day just to try and scrounge up some 45's
You could get bummed by an angry gorilla.
If you have a treadmill and run on it, you might piss off everyone downstairs. And if your house is constructed out of shit I guess long term the continuous impacts could loosen up drywall nails or something. Probably not much else unless you drop weights on the floor.
Worst case would be a neutron star appearing on your gym. That would obliterate your gym, your house, and maybecthe whole solar system as we know it. Depending on ita mas it would collide with our sun and create a supernova the size of pluto's orbit and maybe even voyager i wouldn't survive the blast of gamma rays. So every evidence of humanity evercecisting would be erased from reality.
Have fun carrying literally tonnes of steel up your stairs retard
ive moved my home gym equipment four times by now and it's never been an issue carrying everything lol, went from basement of one house to second floor of another into the basement and then into a third ground level house. you are soft
a fire could start and kill your family
Put it on the ground floor. Second floor probably isn't designed for impact loads.
t. knower
You could end up with a home gym on the ground floor of your house.
