Ok I guess its a garage its that big :-p lol. Man this was alot of work! I'm not done but for the most part its complete. I will also use some of the available space inside for machines/stations that are ok for inside. I'm not sure what I will do with the bodymasters standing preacher curl. It's just too big for outside. i want to keep that center area free and open for boxing/deadlifting area plus enough room to put one of my gymnastics mats down for when I hit the heavy bag.
Total cost: about $2000 for materials including labor. Slab was already there. I poured $12 of concrete to fill the area crisscrossing the concrete where there were bricks after I pulled them out so the floor could be more level. I used the back and side wall of the old shed that was there (8x10) new shed 12x20, peak roof 10 feet.
In shed:
Power rack with lat pulldown/low row
Magnum Perfect Squat (me and my friend carried this bad boy out of my house by ourselves!)
Body Solid cable crossover
Vertical Leg Press
Deadlift area
Lots o plates. Lots o lat handles
Dumbbells (Ironmaster/Powerblock)
Parabody Bench with preacher curl/leg curl/extension/delt raise attachments
Northernmoris Landmine with safety stands (someday righteous handles from bwtg)
Underground Training Prowler Sled by door
Tire outside shed for sledgehammer etc
Medicine ball rebounder/ab bench
Legend GHR Floor pad
Body Solid Dip stand
Westside folding reverse hyper (may go inside)
Leg stretcher
Slip bag
Sklz skill ball
Floor grip machine
Sissy Squat
Inside:
Rower
Recumbent bike
Parabody adductor/abductor
Bodymasters standing preacher curl?
Body Solid Pec Dec
6 foot muay thai bag
Back Revolution inversion
Stepper
Speed bag (would like to keep in shed but not happening, no room)
Whatever else I forgot that is staying inside
not final pics, but very close. Indoor pics after I clean up lol :-D :-p
Construction Progress
The old shed
Thought about adding another window and putting it near the french doors, but I really have enough natural light coming in during the day. Unnecessary.
I will add siding sometime after August. I couldn't afford it right now due to my trip to Michigan in a few days ;-).

On spread.
You need a good rack, a bench, and a 300-lb Olympic weight set. Now, what was your question?

Looks great. Some places I see just don't have a nice gym feel too them. This space seems inviting for a nice nasty workout. Reps on spread.

Looks great, my friend. Must be nice to have a bit of extra space in the house, huh?

at some point. right now you can't even really tell I have the music turned up loud inside. I used some pretty thick boards for the walls
thanks I think its the 2 75 watt light enclosures. I got the brightest white equivalent to daylight I could. 15 for each 2 bulbs (4 total) each bulb was 8 feet long and there are 2 enclosures. some good lighting in there it will make boxing fun, make me feel like I'm in the ring with a bright light overhead lol
well yeah lol . when I get some extra cash I will wait for another free shed to pop up on craigslist, 8x10 or smaller, put it on a tow truck and bring it to my yard. I will store my flip stuff in it.▪█───────█▪ Equipment Crew #46 ▪█───────█▪
