Home Gym Timeline: From Empty to Training
Realistic home gym setup takes 2-6 weeks. Week 1: Planning and ordering. Week 2-3: Delivery (often longest for large items). Week 4: Assembly and organization. Week 5: Testing equipment and adjusting layout. Rush any phase and you'll make mistakes. Delivery delays are common for large equipment—plan accordingly. Assembly takes longer than expected; budget a full weekend.
