A garage that is half gym and half office gives you two of the most useful rooms at home. These garage conversion ideas for a gym office show how to plan a dual-purpose transformation that works for both training and focus.

  5. Define zones with different flooring.

  2. Install a wall-mounted or folding squat rack.
