I wonder if Big Sexy would like it. I'l have to show it to him.

By the way Erica calls me that all the time now. She stole it from you

[Big Sexy J]

I'll like it. Give it to me. Give it to me hard.

[Simpy]

I'll like it. Give it to me. Give it to me hard.

Consider it done.

I hope you survive.

EXTRAS
Long Walk
We are still exploring our neighborhood so we went on a 45 minute walk to the park. It was a great walk pushing Hank and Lucy and sometimes Eva. We were beat and taking our time walking back when the dark clouds came rolling in. About 20 minutes from our house it poured rain all over us. Luckily Lucy was covered. Hank, Eva and I were drenched. I look forward to doing this a lot more often!





THE PAYOFF

[penny0527]

I hate having to wait so long for equipment that you can only do that one thing. When it is equipment for your main lift you cannot do sh!t about it!

Did the kids like playing in the rain?

[Anthony21]

I use to hate having to wait for racks when I went to a commercial gym. Luckily they had 3 of them so it didn't happen often but it can definitely take you out of your mindset.

Way to push past all that though and still get the main work in.

Once they got over the initial shock of it yes.

My gym has two but one has fixed safety bars that are too high for me. If I use it I have to squat outside the rack which I hate and will almost never do.

[bigwade800]

That's why I built my own....

3 monos, pair of hydraulic racks and 3 power racks

Can someone who is mechanically inclined make a monolift?

[thom2355]

Never wait for equipment crew.

Two power racks, plenty of bars, couple tons of weights....one member.

Thomson Iron Training Studio is the best gym in the area.

Someday... lol

[HARRYBEAST]

but no spotters either

[bigwade800]

I have a frree spotter as well...

I have straps on two monos and spotter racks for the hydraulics.


Can someone make one? Yes....I'd get measurements of everything and they need to weld very well. Cutting the metal and the drilling has to be spot on as well.

I will look into this once we move out to the boonies and I have to lift at home. My husband is good at all of that.

Is it retarded expensive to make one?

[bigwade800]

it is not cheap

Here is what I'd suggest if you are going to trian at home

Get a decent power rack and but the attachment that goes on it.

I was looking into Rogue's monolift attachment. What do you think?

Problem is, they don't adjust, you are locked into the height if I'm not mistaken, for penny, that's fine, fo ryou and th elil woman, that could be a challenge.

Very good point and they would be locked in.

I like that it is a studio. Like a KaratAY dojo

Good point to think about. In a home gym my husband would also use it. He just wont go to the gym. I think when the time comes I will get him to look into making a monolift and see if it is doable. The advantage to the power rack would be if I am working alone. But with a monolift not having to walk out would be nice albeit an adjustment.

If you do have a mono lift you just need to make sure you have someone manning the mono at all times if you want to not walk out (captain obvious here lol.)

I had not really thought that far in advance so good point. I could guilt him into lifting me by saying I need him to pull the handle right?!!

Yeah that might work. I mean having a mono in general would be awesome even if it's not used every single training session.

[mmorton]

Rack > mono for most people

[Anthony21]

Rack > mono for most people

If training solo definitely.

[mmorton]

If training solo definitely.

Or with a partner too. Unless you just simply don't walk out your squat and/or just prefer the mono. Otherwise it doesn't provide as many benefits as a rack.

[bigwade800]

The mono attachment would be nice

The attachemnt Clint Darden uses he can use himself. Might be good to touch base with him. It looks cool and he lifts some sizeable weight.

The power rack is the best all around money. If you are a competitor in PL, the mono is sweet to have but, they are pricey. You don't want ot know what I have in mine.
