Next project- a weight tree. Already sick of stepping over plates
Probably going to go with this design. Simple, easy and dirty-

larrymoePrior to the shutdown, I'm assuming you were training at a commercial gym or at work. Given the time and effort you have put into your rack, do you see this as a permanent change? Or will you go back to your previous training location once stuff opens up? I was lifting at Planet Fitness just for price purposes. $10 a month is pretty hard to beat. Not a serious gym and no free weights, but the cheapest meathead gym around was $40 a month. I couldn't justify $500 a year for me to lift. I didn't like the planet. Too many selfies,bros feeling each other up and failed attempts at hook ups. The scenery was occasionally very motivating if you get my drift, but I was not a fan. I also disliked being a zoo creature on display on heavy days. People would stop and gawk. I'd rather lift in anonymity. It was nice to walk in and be the strongest guy in the joint though. I have no plans on returning. In fact the only thing that has kept me from canceling is I think you have to do it in person. |

You'll be here in no time: I watched this a couple days ago. A few things really jumped out to me about Jim's garage gym: 1) He doesn't squat in a power rack. 2) He doesn't care about rusty barbells.  3) Anonymous people buy him expensive equipment and have it shipped to his house. 4) He has a BFS Mega Hex Bar. That is one of the greatest pieces of weight room equipment ever built. |
