COMPETITION! Who has the best Home Gym?
Sometimes I get these things in me head and I thought it would be cool to have a competition on who has the best home gym. Sorry there is no prize other than sheer entertainment.
I have been thinking about designing my own gym to save on membership fees and to decorate the spare room with something useful (and also because I am a highly religious tight arse and I would also like to workout occasionally in the nuddy). Instead of me showing my all, why not show off your gym?

Bought it used ($800 including shipping). The seller bought it from the Westside boys. If I did it all over again, I'd have a welder build me one - its an extremely simple design and could probably be built for $300-400ish for a basic unit.

I have a power rack, 350 lbs of free weights, a barbell, a trap bar, an ez curl bar, ironmaster adjustable dumbells (120 lbs each) adjustable bench, decline to incline) a home gym machine system, punching bag, homemade medicine ball, and I think that is it. I love working out at home, I hope to never go back to a gym again.
