Home Gymmers

Hi guys!
I intend to sort myself out with a home gym set up hopefully over the next few months and will be getting a Power Rack Cage, some gymnastics rings, parallettes, and a few other toys to go along with the other equipment I currently own meaning I can work out whenever I want, for free. The only thing I may have to go to a gym to do will be my legs, at £3 a session/1 session per week wont be so bad. In the long run I may look into getting some plates, bars and flooring.
Given that I used to spend around £30.00 per month to go to a gym, this should save me £360 a year. Worth looking into if you have the space!
Who else on here is or will be a Home Gymmer? If so how is your set up? And how much would you say you have saved?

I used to do home gym work (and you don't need a gym to do legs...squats and lunges will see you right!) but once I started getting into heavy lifting my floor and bar couldn't take it. I prefer being back at the gym now.
We had a free weights bench with a barbell and dumbbells, kettlebells, bike, treadmill and stretching mats. Outlay about £750. Ex still uses it because he works odd hours plus doesn't like the gym environment, whereas I love it
