For those just getting started or with limited space, a budget home gym provides the essentials. So, how much does a home gym cost at this level? Expect to spend between $5,000 and $10,000.

– 1 Piece of Cardio (treadmill, elliptical, or an indoor cycle)

This setup is perfect for basic workouts and lifts like squats, bench presses, and deadlifts, with a cardio option. The suspension trainer is a cost-effective way to add variety.

If you’re ready to level up (and have the space), a mid-range home gym offers more versatility. How much does a home gym cost for intermediate fitness enthusiasts? Typically, $10,000- $15,000.

This tier suits most large or mid-size households or exercisers wanting more variety.

For multi-user setups or the design-focused exerciser, a high-end home gym brings a truly luxury-grade resort to your home. Curious about prices at this level? They can easily go north of $20,000 (we’ve seen it).
