Common Questions
Does this include the cost of space?
If you're using an existing room, the space is a sunk cost and shouldn't affect the calculation. If you're renting storage or building an extension, add that to your equipment cost above.
Why does resale value matter?
Unlike a gym membership (zero resale value), quality equipment retains 50–70% of its value. A barbell bought for $300 typically sells for $150–200 years later. This significantly improves your real ROI.
What if I cancel my home gym too?
The calculation accounts for resale value in the 5-year figures. Even if you sell everything, you're likely to recoup a significant portion of your investment — unlike a gym membership which returns nothing.
