Hello All,

I've finally got my little garage gym open Grin

It's amazing what you can get with a week of ebaying, some dosh and a Van.

What do you think?

Still not sure about the name - I live at Middlewood Hall so 'Middlewood Barbell' sounds reasonable - I was tempted to go with 'The Pit' as that's pretty much what my garage was a couple of weeks ago....

Cheers

Looks good mate. Take it you like some variety in your leg training and not just squats and lunges then? Obviously working for you!

We had one of those leg presses in our gym, it's f**king evil. Keeps trying to push you out of the chair. Make sure you belt up for that bad boy or it could cost you. Looks mint mate, got any strongman equipment yet ?

The leg press is mint, by far the best i've used. Because it's on a cam it allows you to go really deep without your arse comming out of the seat or putting your ankles at an extream angle.

The platform is ace - not bad for £150 and some elbow grease Happy

Cheers

looks excellent .. good to see someone who trains for strength adding in some variety to their training.

Did you get all of that off ebay?

All off eBay mate (except the texas power bar which was from Buzz and the platform which I made)

I lucked out as everything ended in the same week and was located in more or less the same area, which meant I could pick it all in in one fell swoop.

I'm open like a cheap hooker, 24/7 and my rates are not too bad either.

I'll even throw a protein shake if you're nice to me Wink
