      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.

      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 moron. 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'll still have a bunch of expensive junk laying around, but it'll be on the second floor.

    Assuming you are not some moronic 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.

      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.

    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.

    Put it on the ground floor. Second floor probably isn't designed for impact loads.
