So lately i am thinking about buildng my own home gym in my apartment, but the apartment is located on 7th floor of a panel building (the kinda old comunist building mostly in eastern europe).

I am afraid of the load on the floor - me with a bar and some weight + power rack is already over 500 kg, and that is static load, located on very small space. And also cant forget the flooring to help with the vibrations - that will be another weight.

I dont really care that much about other equipment other than SBD. Id probably buy some incline bench and dumbbells, but i dont think that would be of a concern.

Also i am already kinda used to controled lowering of a deadlift, as all three gyms i have spent years in have been on 2nd or higher floor (but they were in comercial building, so they would probably have a bit higher load rating than an apartment).…
