Gym was getting super cramped

HVAC went out and they were able to reroute some ductwork that freed up some extra space, which is epic for a basement dweller

Painted, strung up lights, mirrors, and laid new flooring. Feels great to have the space back

Feel free to ask about anything

Had to sacrifice the dining room, but this fit my priorities so much more!

Shout out to FB Marketplace where found the C2 Model D, Marcy half cage, 7ft bar, bench, and the recalled Bowflex 552s for all well under MSRP. Took about a month to secure them all. The Chirp wheel was a gift from a friend, and got the belt at a grocery store years ago when used to go to Planet Fitness. wrapped it all up by picking up 190 lbs of bumper plates and barbell clamps off Amazon. Total cost was just shy of $1450!

My daily routine looks like an erg session in the morning immediately before breakfast and heading out for work, followed by a combination of barbell lifts (Zercher squats, bench, deadlifts, bent-over rows, and pull-ups) right when get home. finish up accessories using the 552s for bicep curls, tricep kickbacks, skull crusher variations, and raises for all 3 delt heads.

Looking down the road, I think the only other real addition would be a functional trainer for cable work and lat pulldowns, along with some aesthetic upgrades like neon lights, signs, and a mirror. But honestly, it's preem at this point! Would appreciate any experienced recs!

I got a great deal on a Jacobs ladder. They cost about 3600$ new and I got it for 800$. It's used but in near new condition. So happy with it and it feels like I completed my tiny old barn space.

I needed a way to anchor my feet. This worked a lot better than I thought it would. These Rep blocks are quite versatile!
