  • My Gym

    so, over the past year I've finally put together what I consider to be an adequate gym for working out at home. I'm gonna try to attach some images (first time posting images!). Anyway, below is a list of most of what I have. I would appreciate any suggestions on any crucial equipment I'm missing so I can get it and finally be done putting together this gym!

    Cable x-over with 225# stacks on each side (lots of handles on the board at the end for this-see pic2)
    VKR – mostly use it for ab workouts and weighted dips
    Dumbells – 5-100lbs in 5lb increments
    Smith machine with both smith and free bars on it
    Leg press/hack squat machine
    Leg curl/extension machine
    45degree back extension – I use it for lower back and oblique workouts
    480# of plate weights
    Olympic straight and curl bars
    55, 65cm swiss balls
    4,6,8,10, 12# medicine balls and other miscellaneous core training aids
    True 550HRC treadmill
    VisionFitness R2200HRT recumbent bike
    Keys FID bench with preacher curl attachment
    Stereo system and TV!!

    I think that's it.

        Nice dude, how much did all that set you back?

          I think the lifting part (everything minus the treadmill and bike) was about 6K US. The treadmill and bike was about 5K. In the long, run I think it will be worth it. Everything (except treadmill and bike) has a lifetime warranty, so if I maintain it well I should be set for awhile.

            That's pretty badass. All you need now is a window looking into the girls aerobic room. LOL

                  So, by the responses does that mean nobody can think of anything to realistically add? No, the female aerobic room is not an option-but my new neighbor that this window will look across to their basement is hot! Maybe she'll workout in her basement too--or I can invite her over to mine.

                  Yeah, it's pretty nice working out in barefeet, no shirt on, play my own music, free to grunt and do anything I want.

                          Reminds me of mike Katz from pumping iron's place!!

                          When he is doing standing dumbell shoulder press!

                          Very nice bro and I think they'le be less distractions, your less inclined to get distracted or caught up in stupid ego workouts, you can conentrate on form and listen to you own music.

                          Cool

                            Sweet set up, I dont seem to work out at howe though, always too many distractions for me. It would be nice if I could do it though. Good luck and watch those toes man, could be a nasty ouch if you dropped a plate on a barefoot.

                            PD
