I already have a standard Olympic bar, 4x 45/35/25/10/5lb plates from a deal a few months ago. Now I just need a calf-raise machine, a some 25-50lb dumbells and I can do 75-80% of my standard gym workout at home.

I copped the adjustable bench from those links. Working well so far :salute:

I don't miss the gym as much as I thought I'd would. :ohhh:

-Lifting shirtless
-Playing music as a loud as I want, and not fukkin up my eardrums with earbuds
-Not having to worry about wiping down machines
-Don't gotta wait to use equipment or worry about people waiting till you're done with your set
-Can look up new exercises on the fly and add them immediately if I feel shyt is getting stale
-Can make a post workout protein shake ASAP


Slowly adding new equipment to my lil home setup is becoming addicting.

this is how I feel even though my gym was literally on the next block.

I got the rep fitness Pr1100 rack coming this week

The tractor supply 4x6 3/4 inch stall mats do protect the floor from deadlifts and dropping weights

Let me know what u think about rep pr1100. I ended up just cooping a fitness reality one which is pretty similar, stock and delivery dates extending months from now had me shook. So far, I'm happy with my purchase

All of that stuff I posted in the links above arrived. Also Ordered a Seated Calf Raise machine from Overstock. Spent a day-and-a-half moving everything around in the garage, cleaning, and setting up. Have two 6'x4' Exercise Mats coming in a few days that will cover the entire exercise space.

After my workout I turn the flat bench sideways, take the safety pins out, and roll over the bottom frames so both cars still fit comfortably.

only things is stock is Rogue $550 shyt... :what:

It’s very sturdy and well made. I did pulls up, bench press And dips (bought he dip bar attachment from Titan). No complaints.


I’m debating on the last pulldown attachment. It doesn’t restock until June tho.

playing the waiting game on dumbbells now . I refuse to pay more than $1 per pound

Watching a breh make his own DIY squat rack on youtube right now.

If you or a homie got the tools, that could be one way to do it. :ld:

Those shelves tho:russ::ohhh:


I've seen some crazy quarantine squat racks so far:
Saw a Asian chick using two piles of tires.

Saw a dude size & cut pieces of wood and position them in a buckets filled with concrete.

:pachaha:
