About PlateGym

PlateGym publishes guides on home gym equipment. We focus on specific recommendations, real trade-offs, and the criteria that actually matter when buyers compare options.

Editorial standards

Articles are reviewed by Tom Ellsworth, our Editor. Tom built his first garage gym out of scratch-and-dent equipment in 2014 and has been writing about home strength training ever since. He covers racks, plates, programming, and what's worth the spend.

We don't fabricate testing claims. When we say a product is worth picking, we say so on the basis of what's verifiable — owner reports, manufacturer specs, and independent reviews. Where consensus is split, we say that too.

How we make money

PlateGym earns commissions from affiliate links, primarily Amazon Associates. Affiliate income does not influence which products we recommend. See our affiliate disclosure for details.
