    I follow the very simple phraks program, a variation of the greyskull LP (linear progression). For that you just need a bench, a pullup bar, a rack, a barbell and weights. I go to the gym but if you do the math, you spend 800$ at most once to get the equipment at home and you never have to pay a gym membership ever again. Pays for itself after 1 year, 2 year tops if you went to a low-cost gym.

    But there’s definitely a social aspect to the gym too so I’m not complaining. Definitely hitting the point where I can’t do very linear progression though.

    Only downside of the phraks routine is you neglect the abs, even if barely. The exercises are compound, but abs should be worked on separately. You can however add them in wherever you want, I was thinking of doing them at home… and then never get around to actually doing it.
