Turning a Shipping Container into a Home Gym

A gym in a box

Shipping containers are incredibly strong and secure, making them an ideal place to store all types of gym equipment, including weights, treadmills and bikes. Depending on your available space you can opt for containers between 8ft and 40ft! A large container should give you all the space you need to work-out inside, whereas a smaller container can be used for equipment storage, and open up into your outdoor space to allow you more room for your workout. Racks fitted around the inside of the container are handy for hanging weights etc, to give you more floor space Many people opt for unfolding training stations to take advantage of the space around the containers, or bars can be fitted to the outside of the container to secure equipment to, such as punch bags. With the addition of extra wide doors in the side, or full side access doors, once opened up the container gives you easy access to larger pieces of equipment that can brought outside.
