My home gym transformation. Disclaimer (not Esk8)

Hey esk8 builders. I would like to share with you my gym transformation. I bet there is at least 1 more person here who likes to workout :wink: All the tool were borrowed, the wood I used came from disassembling pallets ( super slow work btw). The finish is sou shugi ban ( I hope it’s correct) and 1 coat of varnish. It’s not perfect but that’s the point. it’s rustic, imperfect and has some character. So here are the pics (sorry for being out of order)

Looking good man! Which is the rack brand?

Hum… No specific brand. It’s was bought in Iceland but made in China. Nonetheless it’s high quality. The steel is 76x76x3mm with 25mm holes.

Protein mtf ! For me it’s cheaper than going to the gym that is 120km away…

120km is kind a far to drive 5times a week :sweat_smile:

Honestly, what else you need, a good power rack, a bench and enough weights and you good to go :sweat_smile:

Actually now I need leg extension/curl and leg press. Because my lumbar hurts from squats and deadlift. So at least 1x I have to go there :expressionless:

From where you take the time to drive 260km just for a leg session. That’s cool that you have such a motivation for it! Most guys in our gym wouldn’t train legs even if they would live in the gym :joy: Nothing better than a good set of squats :relieved: It’s a good day if you come in the gym and the squat rack is free :relieved::relieved::relieved:

Even better when there is no-one doing curls in it… Motivation is: I don’t want to loose my 200kg deadlift PR

Oh damn i‘m out :sweat_smile: 150 is enough for me… But winter is close :thinking: less time to drive so maybe I should give it a try and stack on some kilos :thinking::thinking::thinking:
