Min max your life.
One thing. Not every day, not everything.
You already own more than you use, because a room is bigger than you can keep track of. Photograph your space, name what is in it, and see what it all does together.
One thing, and everything it touches
Olympic weight plates load the Olympic barbell for five lifts the index counts — and on their own they do four more: plate carry, ground-to-overhead and plate pinch holds.
And 22 other things here reach the same movements their own way — Power rack (bar hangs), Olympic barbell (bar carry) and Spinlock dumbbell handles (grip hold off the bell). Add one, move one, let one go, and every line above changes with it.
Computed from your record, the same way every time.

A small session around it, built from what is on the record. Use it now
Empty-bar press, empty-bar row and bar carry on its own; floor press, standing press and barbell row with Olympic weight plates.
On its own
Where it stops
Shape a week and this says where it fits. Shape it
No list can know every object. A jiu-jitsu belt tied to a rack upright is an anchor for a band, and no list knows that. You know what yours can be used for — a list does not. Saying so here does not mean it is safe to hang from; that is still your call.
With Olympic weight plates
With Landmine attachment
The bar drops into it and the far end becomes a lever, so the load is one-handed and angled.

What you know about it that the record does not — how you use it, what it is really for. Yours, saved as you type, and it goes wherever the record goes.
Kettlebells & dumbbells · in Garage
In 6 movements — 2 of them because you also have cannonball grip. vertical push, horizontal pull, squat, hinge, loaded carry, grip.

Kettlebell press — 35 lb, goblet squat — 35 lb and kettlebell swings — 35 lb on its own; one-arm row off the bell and grip hold off the bell with Cannonball grip.

With Cannonball grip
The attachment hangs off the bell's handle by its clip, so every one-hand attachment you own becomes a handle on a kettlebell.

Looped on the power rack, for now — it counts there and not elsewhere until you move it.
So it holds a band about chest height.

Three cards from the app, as they are. The tabs work here; the rest works in the app.
Ground · the room, measured
Every figure here came from somewhere. None of it is decorative.
What one real record works out
66 things across 4 spaces, and what they do together. Every figure below was computed from that record — none of it is typed here.

The loop
Photograph a space and Groundwork draws it. The drawing is of a space like yours; the record under it is yours exactly, and that is the part that changes when your things do.
One house · every way of seeing itFive spaces and fourteen things. Four from photographs; the office is imagined.


























































Eight ways to draw one garage
What the space means to you is different for everyone. What it can do is the same.








Work · three moves
Grow · and the good stuff
The dog in the sun. The plant that has got away from you. You do not control any of it.
None of it scores anything. A room with less in it is not a worse room.
Groundwork · Evan Carrigan
No photo with a person in it is ever kept. There is no setting that turns that off.
