Bought this SST Fitness (out of business) Hack Squat from a coworker for $300.
It wasn't in the best of shape, so I tore it down, replaced the main rollers and side roller guides, sanded and painted the main body components, and WD40'd all the bolts. All said, around a $360 investment. It's not the best, but it works for now.

Here is the chest press all put together, minus the shrouds and plaque. I used it today and it works very well at targeting the pecs. Whats crazy is that the weight that you select feels ALOT heavier than what you would think. And no, Im not leaving it here in my dining room, Im moving my gym into a larger location on the 1st. I know I could do this movement with my functional trainer and bench, but when working with clients, I get tired of having to set it up. Plus, this machine just feels alot better than the functional trainer since there is zero flex in the machine. I wasnt originally gonna get this piece, just the lat pull, but now that I have it, Im very glad I did. If any of you are ever in Lompoc, stop by and throw some weight around with me.

Oh man, I cant wait to get everything moved in! It has been so cramped where Im at now for a while, it sucks. Ill post pics ASAP. The handles on this chest press are fat also. Here is a handle from the chest press next to the Bodymasters functional trainer handle.

Im moving in with Paragon BJJ here in Lompoc. They are moving all their equipment out and Im getting about 1000 SQ FT of space, right on one of the busiest intersections in town. Right now Im in my 420 SQ FT garage on a street thats only one block long and gets zero traffic, huge improvement.
I actually might be selling my Atlantis Chest Press. The guy I bought it from had a Hammer Strength incline press with a neutral grip. I figure since my new Precor is more of a flat press, a plate loaded incline would be cool to have, but I want it to have a neutral grip. Plus, a HS incline press would look better in the floor layout I have in my head. Here are a couple pics if anyones interested.

Fuel for the engine. My new rice cooker.
Jasmine brown rice makes the house smell good all day.
Mix in some veggies and place on 12 hour warmer. Scoop out meals throughout the day.

Picked up a Model C yesterday for $400
I put it on my local craigslist last night and already have offers of $650
If I get an offer of $700 or more then I think I will be flipping it and putting that money to a Model D

Yeah it has the latest technology I think. I am a noob to rice cookers and have much to learn. Pretty sure that most of them are idiot proof so I am good to go.Originally Posted by jackbravo

Nothing big, but found a 10lb Nike Medicine Ball for $3.50 at the thrift store. It's in great shape and bounceable. Nothing but cement/vinyl weights as always though.

The 2 on the right are slightly bent...as well as the 70's and 80's. I'm taking them to a machine shop this week to hopefully get them straightened out. Thanks!
