I'm thinking of buying some equipment and starting a home gym.
What are some safety concerns I need to be aware of if I'm working out alone?

You either buy a power cage or you go to a regular gym.

An adjustable squat rack that can be used for bench press is really just a homemade guiliotine.

I've considered this as well.
What do I need to look for when buying a power cage, and how much am I looking to spend?

A few things spring to mind: will it fit into the room? Made of steel? are the welds even? does it look like pic related?

note: I'd also say that this is acceptable.
if you're settinig up in a livingroom/ spare bedroom/ a furnished part of your house I strongly recommend to get at least 1/2" thick rubber mats so you don't fuck up your floors when you're deadlifting.

I'm considering putting in on an outside patio, and throwing a tarp over it when I'm not using it.
I need a bench as well if I'm doing bench presses. Any bench of will do?
>>
>>40889848

I'd reckon so, any bench that looks sturdy enough will do.
>>
>>40889872
Obviously, used equipment would be the most logical thing to search for, however, should I opt for new equipment and put it all together myself?
How much should I spend; does it matter?
>>
>>40889909

When I bought mine I got the bar, the plates and the rack used, the bench I got new because the ones I checked out were nasty, people never clean their shit.

I'm sorry I can't give you a number for your budget.

This. Full cage or it's too dangerous to lift alone and unattended.

I got an Ironman H-class full rack for like $150 on amazon one time. $300 for a barbell set at dicks sporting goods.
>>
>>40889984
Is it hard to put together?
>>
>>40890026
No it took me maybe 1.5 hours with the flat piece of shit wrench included. I would have blasted through with a socket wrench.
