As most of you know, I live in a batchelor condo, about 475 sq ft.
I am OBVIOUSLY limited as to what I can use for equipment.
NOT having a car makes it awkward to get out and get additional weight plates.
Ideas as to what you can recommend without the use of machines at home so I can do a pretty good full workout.
Also, if any members live in Toronto, can someone recommend a good CHEAP gym in the downtown core of the city.

Just ignore my partner dbx, he obviously has been waking up on the wrong side of the bed lately.
If I were you, I'd get a power rack, a FID bench, and a set of Olympic weights. When not in use, the bench and weights can be stored inside the rack. Some adjustable dumbbells would be a good addition, too.

They take up a lot less space than the benches that come with builtin racks. The one I have even has a leg extension/leg curl attachment that comes off.
Like you, I have limited gym space, hell, it's half of my formal dining room.
The great thing about a full rack is that you can bench and squat to failure in perfect safety.
