re: Analyze my home gym options por favor

I bought a new bench/rack combo for just over 100 bucks on Amazon in December. I've put 300 lbs on it, and it has held up well to that weight. Your squat might pass that weight within the next several months though if you are deadlifting 300 now. You can probably find a decent one that will hold 400-500 lbs for 300 bucks I would imagine. If I were going to 1500 on a home gym, I'd go ahead and spend the extra 140 to get the pull up bar and pulldown attachments.
