[@BasementBrandon]

What a fine looking establishment.

[@Massenomics]

@@BasementBrandon from a man that knows a thing or two about a home gym 🫡

[@Mrwatson185]

Banner placement is pristine my man. Killer “minimalist” setup!

[@Massenomics]

Really ties the room together!

[@dashxpowerlifting]

Those banners really add a lot of flavor to such a simple set up 😮

[@Massenomics]

@@dashxpowerlifting they really pop!

[@brawnd0]

I’m jealous of all that wall space.

[@Massenomics]

@@brawnd0 the perfect place for Massenomics flags!

[@fwiffo42]

From being “all set” a few months ago to, now, you’re definitely a Big Garage Gym Guy. The next thing I’d recommend is something for back work. I like some kind of cable for lat pull downs and low rows, but you could get creative.

[@Massenomics]

I can see how that would be a good addition. I'm getting tired of all these pull ups!

[@jeffdaigle7230]

Awesome setup! One of my recent upgrades was sandwich j-cups. Had the old standard bare metal ones that came with my rack but after getting the black coated Texas Bodybuilding Bar I couldn’t standby and watch the metal to metal anymore 😂. My next wishlist item is that belt squat attachment from Bells of Steel, I believe also doubles as jammer arms. One thing at a time 😂

[@Massenomics]

@@jeffdaigle7230 that's awesome! Brick by brick! 🧱

[@deffroadceltaiddcelticawak4150]

Punch bag and skipping rope are what I use for indoor cardio in my, limited space, spare bedroom home gym.

[@Massenomics]

@@deffroadceltaiddcelticawak4150 both good ideas!

[@irongeek7933]

I have the Kensui alloy handles and I love them too. Waited like 3 months for them, but they are fantastic.

[@Massenomics]

I was really surprised how good they are!

[@10626476]

Those Bremmy Strong x Massenomics sandwich j cups 😮‍💨o lawdy they’re beautiful. The garage gym is coming along nicely big Tommy!

[@Massenomics]

@@10626476 to say that those POP would be an understatement!

[@robhughes2629]

Sheesh, might be the best home gym in the game

[@Massenomics]

Thank you! 🙏

[@springpistonriflefeverlone9611]

Home gym is the way to freedom!💪

[@HeidenStrength]

Your small plate storage under the safeties is so smart!

[@Massenomics]

Working smarter not harder!

[@melkorbane]

Best minimalist setup I’ve seen by far. I have way too much crap and am planning on selling half of it to get closer to your setup. The extras I wouldn’t get rid off are Freak Athletes ghd/nordic (use it every workout for ghd sit-ups or hypers or Nordics) and rogues squat wedges (which are attached to my infinity rack and used once a week)

[@Massenomics]

There's something nice about keeping it simple!

[@andie_pl]

The darko double dock under the name plate might be necessary so the name plate can shine

[@Massenomics]

Not a bad idea 🤔

[@jenveen]

Maybe a stop on the Crü Falls December to Remember 🤔

[@themalloftheinternet5682]

Thats a super clean and well organized gym. Get a pulley system that can be easily hung over the rack and removed if needed. Also get a landmine, viking press, and a beater bar for it. Lastly you need some sort of cardio. These add ons can be cheap and take up very little space (other than the cardio).

[@Massenomics]

Those are all good suggestions!

[@keithhoneycutt2324]

Some kind of pulley system for Pulldowns and low rows would be my 1 recommendation to add

[@Massenomics]

It's officially on the wish list!

[@TheKurtlocker]

That's a fine looking place. Probably the best gym in town! 🎉

[@Massenomics]

@@TheKurtlocker best gym in south east South Dakota!

[@jasonplatania7766]

Thanks to you I’ll be buying a darko barbell anchor. Gym looks great!

[@Massenomics]

@@jasonplatania7766 it's a sweet addition at a good price!

[@Timm129]

If I lived in SD a heater would be my next purchase..unless you are a seasonal lifter 😃

[@bigk2080]

I was thinking that you should get a pair of Repins 😂

[@danielpicerni24]

Surplus Strength UPS for lat pull downs!! Takes very little space. Would need to move your rack further from the wall.

[@Massenomics]

That's a solid suggestion!

[@Jeff-rn4be]

Great job man looks great

[@Massenomics]

Thanks 👍

[@swimhack]

Some people just have it all

[@Massenomics]

@@swimhack this AND Lift Shorts!

[@matthewandrade4242]

Where do you get that accessory board?! Neeeeeeeed tha thing. Looks sweet

[@Massenomics]

@@matthewandrade4242 that's "Wall Control". Works great!

[@jerbear_mancave]

what are the weight plates you use? i really like my kensui handles the wait time is the worst part, great product

[@Massenomics]

The Olympic size plates are from The Strength Co. The 1 inch plates are Yes4All off of Amazon. The finish and quality is pretty bad but they get the job done and shipping is free.

[@jerbear_mancave]

@@Massenomics thanks

[@JonathanBusher]

Looking good

[@dhunter2024]

So that’s why they call it a garage gym

[@Massenomics]

@@dhunter2024 it makes a lot of sense if you don't think about it

[@joecowan3719]

What do you do when you have to move a few hours from the Massenomics Gym? You create your own home gym with the same Cool Beans vibe and half of Tanner's Post It Note Rules! 💪

[@Massenomics]

@@joecowan3719 definitely could use some more hand written passive aggressive notes if you ask me

[@czinke9]

Not one but TWO drink spotters?? This guy takes beverage safety seriously!

[@Massenomics]

@@czinke9 drink safety is never an accident in this garage!!

[@SirSketchable]

I thought you were supposed to make Tommy's head really big in the thumbnail

[@Massenomics]

@@SirSketchable definitely a missed opportunity

[@keithhoneycutt2324]

That gym is definitely NOT Unpaid

[@Massenomics]

If I had my druthers I would say underrated!

[@jasonplatania7766]

Hi Tommy, what are you using for that plate storage ?

[@Massenomics]

I have the Bells of Steel pin plate pegs for the Olympic plates and I got the Bells of Steel standard band pegs to hold the change plates and 1" plates.

[@jasonplatania7766]

@@Massenomics thanks Tommy, both you and the long flowing locks are looking good!

[@eggroll651]

Can you share the link to the FM stereo transmitter?

[@Massenomics]

I have the Fosi Audio BT20A Amplifier on Amazon. It does not have FM capabilities, it's just and amp with Bluetooth or line in but I'm sure there are options for FM if you need that.

[@eggroll651]

Thanks! ​@@Massenomics
