Thanks Jake. I really appreciate that. I don't have many more reviews to do. Not sure what direction the channel will go from here on out, but it's been a learning experience for sure. Thanks again for the encouragement!

I like how you did the two racks. Unique idea with the platform intersection in the middle. Glad you made the cables work and if it works for you, why not. I got a spud inc pulley I’m not in love with. It’s a hassle to find the right high points and I’m short. Just planning on getting the cable tower in the future. Looks good!
@JimintheGym6 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Yeah, I'm totally not a fan of spud inc. I think that's way too much money for what you get. I can't remember, but somebody had a cheaper version of the spud system for like $45. I thought it was elite FTS, but I can't find it, now. Either them or rep fitness? Cable towers are by far the best way to go if you have the space and $$$. Best of luck and thanks for posting!

Sweet Gym , Jim ..... I also have a small space and thinking of moving from a full rack to a rogue squat rack with spotters to free up room. The only issue is losing the rogue spotting straps , as I like how they protect the room. A set of ironmasters would of freed up some space wink wink . Keep the vids coming , cheers

Yeah, the dumbbells are something that's a little out of character, because the rest of the setup is geared towards cost efficiency. But it's just so convenient to walk over to the rack and pick up a set, without having to adjust anything. These days, I don't do that many 1rm efforts. So, I think a squat rack would probably work just fine. Though a cage really is a nice thing to have. Let me know if you make any big changes!

Jim may I give you some training advice A) Get ride of Dumbells, Cables. Only barbell and body weight exercises B) Only do compound lifts C) Work out everyday. That will give you the best gains

Hey Big Boss. My strength goals are: 5 x 5 reps of bench at 225 5 x 5 reps of Squats at 315 5 reps of Deadlift at 405. Who knows if I'll get there. Other than that, just to be functionally strong. Keep rehabbing my knee and shoulder. To be more aesthetic.
