Man Turns 2-Car Garage into Fully Kitted-Out Home Gym!

[@toddekramer]

Yes, continue the in gym visits. Add floor plan dimensions, relative cost to equip, and expand on electrical/sound, if any. Keep up the 🔥

[@Ignaciodrums]

Ggr has already made an extensive video on the electric/sound in his home gym

[@gymreviewer]

Something nice about seeing other people’s gyms 🤝

[@connorschaal2729]

He’ll get right on that for ya bud

[@user-cm9ef4fw7m]

why will u have access to so much equipment and have below average muscle development… to the point no one can tell u have ever workout?

[@Insaniya.humanity]

@@connorschaal2729 and for free, of course…

[@tomk3478]

I'm digging the walkthroughs. It's always nice to see what other people have in their setups and how they put stuff together.

[@NUMBER_74]

I enjoy the gym walkthroughs! Keep those up. Sometimes you pick up little stuff that's not even mentioned in the video. I always end up rewinding to check stuff out.

[@mounirdarwiche6075]

Packaging: It came in a sturdy rectangular cardboard box that said Yoga on it. kzbin.infoUgkxZkaD2JsPC-fUMkF3vxJ2echoiXZ3T9aM I didn't like how it let possible package thieves know what might be contained inside but great packaging otherwise. The yoga mat came rolled up in a plastic wrap, which was fairly easy to remove.Contents: I got the green yoga mat and it came with an adjustable velcro carrying strap already secured to the mat. There was also a warranty card. There was a bit of a plastic smell coming form the yoga mat but it quickly dissipated after using it once.I've only used the yoga mat twice so far but I am loving it. It's such a game changer to my work outs, especially compared to my bed and floor, haha! I can confirm that it very thick, slip resistant, and comfortable. i didn't look at the dimensions prior to buying the mat, but it is so much longer than I expected! Width is normal size in my opinion. I don't know if it really is tear resistant yet... only time will tell!

[@adamcloet4277]

The home gym tours are - hands down - the best content you put out!

[@kenl9995]

Great looking gym. For those of you on a budget: If you want to spend $4k on doing your garage flooring get Elinko. If you want to spend $470 buy stall mats from Tractor Supply.

[@AlgerJ24]

I don’t have a sick gym. But it’s functional and I am forever thankful for it. Power rack, adjustable bench, barbell, is really all you need to get it done. If you’re trying to be more serious about your fitness and level up from living room workouts (also great). I find when you are apart of the process in building it, you’re going to use it more because it’s tuned to your liking. Great video as always.

[@leitman]

The jd gym knurled handle suggestion looks awesome. I love the walk thrus. The flooring is nice. I also like the regrets being mentions of the faults with some of the items when trying to mix and match. I love my gym and wouldn't trade it for a commercial gym. You are a 100% correct, he will fill in that space in no time. I have been building mine for 15 years. I have swapped stuff that I regretted buy and have flipped multiple items after Using them for a year or two!

[@Hichris808]

Those handles on the powerblocks! About to order them for my set. Never knew about this before. Thanks!

[@authentichealthcoach4142]

Really cool stuff man! Looks great and I love how you showed how you still have your garage stuff in there! 2 things i need now….Eleiko flooring to match my bars and SONOS speakers!

[@dewafelbakkers]

Always love the gym walkthroughs. Would love to see even more small space/low ceiling/odd space solutions and shed solutions

[@timfowler6375]

Love the gym walkthroughs, so good to see what other people do and how they make things work!

[@louisrosado3295]

“You and all your Coopness” - Priceless!

[@jno20]

I enjoy the walkthroughs, for sure. It's really nice to see equipment in different configurations and spaces, helps me contextualize how it might look in my home gym and what may or may not work for my space.

[@TheAverageAngler]

Love the gym walk through. This set up is exactly what I’m going for. Sort of a minimalist approach that covers all the needs. Add a rower and it’s perfect.

[@PCHPerformance]

Love the gym walkthroughs, really gives a great look at what/how/why other people do in terms of set ups. Best thing to do to get ideas and see what works and what doesn’t. Since COVID, I’ve slowly built up my home gym to run my training business through there instead of a commercial gym. If you need more garage gyms to do walk throughs, I’d love to get a chance to be on it!

[@edwardchen9475]

Just saw this video as a recommendation from KZbin. Love the walkthroughs! I have a three car garage (one tandem space) and I’m trying to make the tandem portion as a fitness area. Would love to see more “smaller” gyms as well!

[@Mr1damian]

Love the walkthroughs. I’d like to see a combination of seasoned home gym veterans and rookies just getting started 💪🏽

[@Pianoman1986beto]

Totally for the garage gym walkthroughs and honest opinions of the purchase regrets. ie. dumbbell weights, lat pull down inconvenience of rolling the weights being an inconvenience. Thanks guys! Keep them coming.

[@AJSshodan]

Love the home gym visits! Thanks for inviting us to see.

[@fwiffo42]

I’m digging these garage gym walk throughs! I’ve got a pretty nice setup, 6 post Monster rack with the Rhino and a center mounted slinger (á la the COOP rack), deadlift platform, a couple of Ohio power bars, an Ohio deadlift bar, an Ohio squat bar, the nuobells, rogue adjustable bench 2.0, rogue monster utility bench 2.0, and a concept 2 RowERG. It all (mostly) fits in one stall of my 3 car garage. I owe a lot to GGR and Basement Brandon for what I picked.

[@DylanKJohnson]

Hell yes to gym walkthroughs! It's always great seeing how people choose to kit out their personal spaces. If you're ever in the PNW you'd be more than welcome to tour my space, ha.

[@lousantiago7511]

Enjoying the walk throughs. The JD handles on my powerblocks are money well spent. So much better.

[@carloslaboy4279]

Awesome walkthrough. I was thinking of getting a plate loaded lat pulldown, but you’re right. The center mount lat pulldown would be a much better option.

[@adriennepang6985]

Love gym visits! Agree do more of these so we can get your take on what to do in different spaces and also based on the individual’s fitness goala

[@alphabrett2502]

Yes the gym tours are fantastic. I love seeing what people do while keeping it basic. Especially the "this Rogue attachment with this rep rack because its better"

[@robertplaisier8844]

Love the friend/ co-worker gym walk through. Keep up the great reviews and content!

[@poppers4198]

Nice gym. Those Eleiko tiles are awesome.

[@Rocket4ce]

Luv that flooring!

[@benemirate7584]

The westside scout hyper is soo freaking good, I love it!!! It is stable enough without being heavy and taking up zero space

[@jermaine5561]

I wish I had a friend like Coop. Good people!✌🏾

[@zfortyounce]

If anyone has a home gym and is thinking about buying a leg extension/leg curl machine, I use the Westside reverse hyper for leg extensions, leg curls and multiple types of pulls. Its pretty versatile if you get creative. You can even do tri extensions if you have some handles you can attach.

[@Fitnaz]

Yes I love it. It helped me create my gym to what it is thus far. I will definitely share and tag you here soon. Without your help it wouldn't be what it is.

[@Lloydy2k]

Absolutely love home gym walk throughs. That set up is sick

[@PLAYIN_247]

Great video, this kind of variety in content is perfect

[@pattgsm]

That is great space! Window provides some natural light and side nook is definitely a plus if only wanted a small gym. I’m sure he will make upgrades but I think the reverse hyper, either the power rack w/ a stacked lat pull dwn or the Titan functional trainer (not both), and the bench. Also, if I owned my car I wouldn’t give up the garage but a lease can stay parked in the driveway and I’ve got to have space for a freezer/refrigerator. He definitely has a fantastic home gym.

[@AslanAtreyu]

Coop, I really like at the end of the walk through that you offer your suggestions for potential improvements.

[@dannymarcial9139]

Yes to more gym visit/reviews. I like when you show professional athletes too. Thx man!

[@rayjbb1494]

Love the gym walkthroughs too! Would be great to see a picture of what equipment was there before (with the dimensions of the space) so smaller spaces have an idea of what they could do

[@ziaflame]

Yes. Please do more home gym reviews. I'm getting great ideas for my home gym.

[@azndynomite1277]

Absolutely love these gym walkthroughs, gives me ideas, please keep em' coming!

[@Sweatcheck69]

More home gym tours with budget equipments and flooring would be a blessing !

[@TheBrianBurkett]

The Titan dumbbell stand is WAY better than the PowerBlock stand. It doesn't have the holes for the adder weights, and you'll need to cut something to raise the blocks up just a little because of the lips on the side, but it's WAY sturdier and has some built in plate storage.

[@ulrikvonliektenstein9907]

LOVE the gym walkthroughs

[@damionwimsatt4386]

Love the walk through! Keep them coming.... Maybe a COOP do over show, fixing home gyms???

[@donaldcampbell851]

I went in my pocket to upgrade the handles on my Pro Rexan 125s powerblock. Bought those handles from JD Gym equipment you were 100% right about hose handles they are excellent!!

[@NoFate247]

These gym visits are fun little changes to the channel, keep them up

[@maxpetras1408]

Love that flooring

[@OWPhD]

Shout to to JDGym. The thick grips totally transformed my PowerBlock USA Elites. Worth the price and worth the wait.

[@Oskrg2134]

The gym is very nice, it seems to me that the space is well distributed and organized. excellent work !!!

[@gregors00]

For the leg extension, go get a jack stand and when you load it up, you can have the loading pin out in front a bit so that the moment arm doesn’t change much during the movement.

[@joelmeoak7384]

I love the gym walkthroughs. Gives me more ideas. Keep them coming.

[@galacius2988]

I have the PB Pro 90s as well and i went with the Powerblock Max Powerstand (make sure to get the Max, which is compatible with up to 90lb). Its the perfect height and you can walk into it, which feels the most natural.

[@lindseyfrazier3298]

I love this flooring. One question. Can you park your vehicle on those or does he just leave his vehicles outside?

[@clintwhite8542]

Love the gym visits. This one gave me some great ideas

[@bawlsmcthaniel5549]

Hell yeah Coop love these videos man. And awesome to see that Titan Roman Chair I have the same one love that thing!

[@eltorogym4884]

Love the gym tours. If you find a basement gym that would be cool. Not many drop ceiling gang around here

[@hxxn8]

Yes, please do more gym walk-throughs!

[@JustLiftPT]

Coop, I have one stall of our 2 car garage turned into a gym for myself and PT practice. 6 post rogue rack, rhino, DIY platforms, storage options, leg press/hack squat. If you'd like to see or feature a one stall garage maximizing space with this equipment, let me know. Would love to show off my garage gym and help with some more content. Oh, and my wife still parks in the garage AND trains with me. Peace

[@jreda2000]

The 1 inch barbell and 1 inch plates would definitely give the user more weight to growth their strength. 155 lbs with the Olympic bar and bumper plates would be outgrown quickly by most average men. What do you think of the the Tital fitness wall mounted pulley tower with dual handles? It is basically a single column functional trainer, plate loaded. That could give a lot of value with the number of exercises possible. The tower plus weight plates could cover a total body workout for between 500 to 750 dollars depending on how many weight plates you buy.

[@jamescoyle8]

Love the garage gym walkthroughs! Honestly I can’t get enough lol! It’s cool because every case is customized! And so gives different perspective and insights. Also I have a great garage gym that I’d love to share if your willing to come to Jackson, MS!!!

[@JHallOnline]

The gym walkthroughs are awesome. More please.

[@gman-db9lx]

Really nice setup Nathan. Congrats on that. I really like that Titan functional trainer you have but my space will only allow the Titan lat pulldown. I’ll get the selectorized version. Can you do cable curls on it?

[@JoshuaLTRyan]

Love the gym walkthroughs.

[@bobkirkwood6016]

Like seeing these. If your back in Columbus, welcome to stop by for a tour.

[@Jeff-mw3gj]

Love the walkthroughs!

[@smokinghull]

I really enjoy these home gym reviews! Keep them coming!

[@BasementBrandon]

Lots of space for more gear...

[@BasementBrandon]

14:20 spoke too soon

[@TheSwamiKing]

Great video. Very helpful and as always, entertaining.

[@kompletevisionentertainmen371]

I really appreciate the work you all are putting in. I currently go to a gym, but I plan on buying a home soon and I was looking into building an at home gym. Thank you so much for all of the details and suggestions.

[@ShawnIsBatman]

Gym walk throughs are awesome!

[@themustangmachine]

Love the gym walkthroughs! It's a lot of fun seeing what people purchase, prioritize, and value. Also, I think I have a pretty sick gym in Ohio if you'd want to come walk through it ever.

[@brandonmaberry7553]

Loved this episode, more of these please

[@ceofounder]

Home/garage gym awesomeness!

[@allenhardy2682]

Awesome vid, Im surprised that Coop didn't recommend changing out the Overhead garage door motor for the style he has to free up more overhead space.

[@trvslhy1]

Like the home gym walk throughs keep them coming. I’ve got a pretty good garage gym in San Diego if your ever in southern California.

[@ericmason2917]

Hey Coop, Cool walk through and brainstorming ideas. I have a pretty awesome home gym that I would love to show you = ). Love the content as always and thank you for all these reviews! E

[@dereklynn387]

Yes, definitely more!

[@anseldelacruz]

Very nice. Gave me some ideas. Keep doing these.

[@BeastRP_]

Love the gym reviews, amazing to see what other people have and set their own garage up

[@dablazarus7303]

One day I hope I have the money to create a garage gym this nice. Love the tile flooring!

[@Akcarr3]

coop woot!!! good work bud love all you stuff.

[@TonyFontanesi]

Great looking gym! All you need now are some gym banners, maybe a fridge in the old gym section and a leg press or belt squat...it's SUPER easy for me to spend other people's money 😁

[@dcgirl8765]

Love the gym reviews. Would be interested to see some in smaller one-car garages. I live in the city. Space is tight.

[@michaelt.1451]

Very nice. Keep em coming.

[@Ole-oj3ep]

Keep these coming!!

[@jjjjjjj389]

Great review, I really enjoy these. Hopefully i'll have a working home gym eventually myself. I have some older weights / dumbells but maybe upgrades one day!

[@RaysUserName]

That flooring looks amazing

[@Czechbound]

Very practical video ! What would I change ? If the room is now for working out, I'd put the rack - presumably the most used piece of equipment, up front at the door. That way I could work out in the fresh air. Why stuff everything at the back ? It's not like the car will ever be in there again.

[@giannipastore7963]

absolutely go ahead with the gym visits!

[@Bearded360]

💪🏼More gym tours

[@Davidtbv]

Love the gym walk throughs like seeing what people spend their money on

[@aliendroneservices6621]

3:09 Killer b-roll low-sun shot.

[@eliasmoreno4672]

love these walkthroughs. pls do more!!!

[@sheldongreig7945]

Enjoyed the home gym walk through.

[@samsetiaboedhi4202]

Love the gym tours!

[@TorBoy9]

Great looking gym! I prefer the smaller gym reviews, as my workout area is also quite limited. We're always looking for ideas to increase utility of our setups.

[@ironkingdom3194]

Love this video. Keep them coming!

[@JoshPeak]

Love the walkthroughs and also splicing it with recommendations of other options is what I am here for. Like the rollers instead of the hyper machine. Perfect 👍 Probably a lot of work, but getting viewers to send through videos of their own gym walkthrough and you do like commentary and again splicing in your suggestions. Just make sure they submit the video in a certain format and with decent lighting and angles so you have decent content to work with.

[@edal1179]

Great set up Nate! Yeah I need to see Echo bike or Assault Runner in there to really round out the workouts.
