Add another vote to home gym. I was a member of one but found it very busy when i wanted to use it. I got sick of this and having to unload bars and machines which i wanted to use. If its yours you...

Well done. Did you change your technique at all ?
I have found due to knee probs that I have to squat feet well apart and splayed out, I think they call it sumo style.

One thing you want to ensure is that once hanging your heavy bag doessnt sit too low. Taking into account the length of your chains as well.
By this im meaning that you can throw head shots without...

As proteinaniron i have an Ipod which I have an arm band for. Just ensure your cable is reasonably short otherwise it still catches onto things.

You could make up a calf block easily enough and do one legged calf raises. As your strength increases put a dumbell in one hand whilst you balance yourself with the other. Also seated calf raises by...

I have a RIP 60 which I picked up on sale. Made my own set of gym type rings a well. I find suspension type training adds some nice variety to a home gym. Not a replacement to free weights but to...

Hi mate,
Im in a similar situation hoping to get something decent for around the $600 - $700 mark. Difference being is that Im a smaller guy (5'8,80kg), but one thing I noted with the Muscle Motion...

Not seen any pics of you before this but i'd say your bi's and forearms have been reaping benefits from your back work.
Nice job

Waldopepper. that did make me laugh, the 'coach' reminds me of someone I know.
On topic, Im a home gym trainer now but there was a guy at the gym that use to love loading machines up (especially the...

Or maybe a punching bag, either hung or a freestanding unit. Plenty on Ebay and with a apple or android round timer app will get up a good sweat. Add a jump rope and your good to go.

It all depends. Personally I have tried squats and various presses on the Smith and they just dont feel right. The exercise is on a fixed path and i found it uncomortable. With free weights my body...

Personally I prefer one arm d/b row. I get a good stretch and feel it more than t-bars.

People who load up a machine with plates, proceed to do half or quarter reps whilst grunting like a porn star. Then finish the set and leave it like they have just conquered Mount...

So I don't look like most of the other 45 years ld plus guys in my area. Seriously a lot of guys that get divorced (like myself) turn to drink etc, I dont want to do that. And I want to keep up with...

Just sold a light duty rack I had and looking at getting something at least half decent. I say half decent as Im trying to stick to a budget of around $500-$600. Came across this one and contacted...

I like others above also have both. Nice to have the extra options and the ability to superset/giant set if need be can be good. If you have the room and $$$ go for both, but if not go the rack. ...

Something like this if you have the room. I'm guessing they would be cheaper in the USA as well. Personally I find...

Although I don't have the utility bench I do have a WB-LS with the detachable bench. The system offers great variety from my power rack work. It came with the leg attachment which I don't use that...

If you haven't got the room or cash for a nice big rack of bells than these are great. Have had mine for 4 months now and love them.

Thanks for the review. I'm in Oz too and have been eyeballing one of these.
Damn we get smashed with postage !!!!

Looking forward to your update on this....
