Rubber flooring would add to this cost, and even with that I don't thing my downstairs neighbors would appreciate me doing deadlifts.
And that was the cheap part !
Unlike a resistance band setup that can be put away after use, a power rack needs dedicated space, let's say 6 m2. As it happens, my apartment costs a little over CHF 300 per m2 and year. Which means a cool CHF 1800 / EUR 1850 / USD 1980 per year just for the home gym space. Puts the "expensive" gym membership in perspective. Rent may not be as expensive everywhere, but you get the idea.
