I built a pullup bar but it's bolted into a beam in my garage ceiling and I don't know how well it would fare if I was putting more strain on it.

What?
Those plates aren't enough because you won't be able to jump from a weigh to another one which is withing you progression. Dumbass.

Okay anon, I'll look for some smaller plates
Get adjustable dumbbell handles, not fixed ones. More space efficient, and cheaper.

Yeah, I meant something like this:>>38081056
Someone recommend me a "i just started exercising and doing SS" starter pack.
Dont want to go to public gym because they're all fucking far and full of crossfit people.
Budget is uhhh... $1k? Room is 8'x24'.

How high do these go up. The ones I've seen used only go up to 40 or so.

They are the same diameter of an olympic barbell, so you could fit all of the olympic plates there for proper progression. You could even put some 45s there, but its a little bit stupid. I think you can put at least 6 10s on each side so 120lbs plus the weight of the dumbbell, per dumbbell.
