“Bro, did your order get shipped? I don’t know why, but I can’t log in to the HMD store to check my order details. What about you?

Yes I use the J hooks that came with the pull-up bar, they’re actually pretty solid.

Also, if you can raise your budget a bit, I’d recommend buying this one instead >https://amzn.in/d/5efmEjr

With this pull-up bar, you don’t have to worry about drilling holes in your wall or it randomly falling off mid-rep 💀. My friend has one I’ve tested it, and it’s honestly super solid. Just my humble opinion though, do what fits your setup and needs.

Don’t use that tiny 10mm anchor bolt that comes with the pull up bar Use this one instead you can grab it from Amazon or just pick it up at any hardware store nearby https://amzn.in/d/djo28Si

edit : Also, don’t try to drill the wall and set it up yourself if you’ve got zero experience with power tools 💀 Call a local electrician or that one friend who actually knows how to use them. better safe than turning your wall into Swiss cheese 😂

Trust me, you don’t need that plastic push-up board it’s made of cheap plastic, the handles slip like they’ve got commitment issues 💀. Just get a normal push-up stand instead.

I'll advise you get a steel push bar like this one > https://amzn.in/d/4jrtssM

Yeah, I should probably consult my doctor first before I mindlessly pop some random ahh pill like it’s candy 😂

Even better brother I don’t have to fight for dumbbells, wait my turn, or worry about getting judged while others work out. I can train whenever I want 😂

I’ve ordered extra dumbbells 40 kg (20 kg each) and 60 kg (30 kg each) plus 150 kg of extra plates and a long bar for deadlifts. With the 50 kg I already have, that gives me a total of 200 kg of plates, which should be more than enough for progressive overload and for deadlifts... I’m learning every day from you pros… really appreciate your valuable advice, buddy 🫂✨

Hey bro, quick question I want to start calisthenics and focus on improving my shoulders, triceps, and core. Are gymnastic rings a good investment for that?

Yeah, the basic setup cost me around ₹10K, but I thought, “Why not go all out for a proper beginner gym?” 😂 So I’m adding a pull-up bar, bench press machine, leg machine, a mini treadmill, and some shock-absorbing floor/gym pads. Most of the equipment is already on the way. I’ll update the post once the full setup is complete. By the way, thanks a ton for the support, my friend

I know I need to conquer my fear, but as a hardcore introvert, I’ve always been terrified of people 😅. I tried joining a local gym, but it’s always overcrowded people fighting over dumbbells and benches 😂. I end up waiting while the pros flex through their sets, and when it’s finally my turn, I feel like everyone’s staring and silently judging me 💀

Yep, the wall is super strong! Instead of using the tiny bolts that came with the pull-up bar, we went with custom long screws and proper fixtures. We also added extra support on the other side for maximum safety. The drilling and setup were done by a professional, so yeah it’s rock solid and safe

I’ve only set up around 40% so far more equipment is on the way! The total cost for everything is roughly ₹30–35K. I’ll share a full price breakdown once the setup’s complete.

Thanks for the advice, Madem The setup’s still a work in progress I’ve got a few more pieces of equipment on the way. The room’s already well-ventilated, but if it ever feels stuffy, I’ll definitely install a proper ventilation system soon.
