I’m planning a compact gym measuring roughly 2.5m × 2.7m internally, with around 2.4m headroom. I’m 6 ft 1.

A proper treadmill for running is non-negotiable.

I’d also like to squat and bench safely, do pull-ups and store some weights. I train alone, so safeties are important.

I’m open to folding racks, half racks, squat stands or more unusual space-saving options. The room has not been built yet, so wall reinforcement can be added.

What equipment and layout would you recommend? Exact UK-available products and photos of similarly sized gyms would be really helpful.

The attached image is only a rough concept.
