my ghetto gym

[Cap'n Cooke]

check it out. assembled this in my garage with parts of failed, disassembled workout sets from friends, plus some shit i picked up myself. even got the laptop pumping out songs from those tiny speakers.

all i don't do in here is legs and shoulders, but for everything else it's ace.

looks like junk, sure, but fuck, works beautifully for me.

 

[CrimsonKing]

lol.. good job..

YOU GOT TO DO LEGS!.. do a old-school Hack Squat is your worried about getting burried under the bar with normal squats.

 

[Cap'n Cooke]

oh yeah, i do legs at my regular gym, along with shoulders. i'm not one of those guys that neglects 'em... in fact, i get told my legs are "too big" all the damn time, but i can't ignore my babies.

 

[b fold the truth]

Any way possible...make it happen...I like it!!!

[Cap'n Cooke]

i just like the privacy... just seems like i can get a much more intense workout when it's just me and the weights.

I can do all of the manly things and do all the stupid qwerks that I normally do in my gym...and feel tough without being laughed at...

haha, yeah i bet all that rust weighs at least a pound. that'll add to the strength.

Nice setup Cap'n Cooke!

I love working out at home....its nice to work out anytime you want.

I don't see male or female when I train...I just see heart. Night Fly is the best training partner I could imagine...I love it when we get to lift together... Talk about a hot woman...especially when sweat is dripping from her....

[Lord_Suston]

BFOLD you see heart, Damn I all I can see is red.... J/K when I workout I really don't like any distraction, I just like the sound of plates banging together, man o' man it's like music to my ears. In the gym I am there to workout not to stare at women, there aree other places for that...

 

[goldenone]

Here is a pic of my home gym. I am still in the process of getting dumbells and a coulple of other pieces of equipment.

[goldenone]

How do you post pics instead of a link?

 

[b fold the truth]

goldenone's gym...

 

[Cap'n Cooke]

oh, just use Image: instead of [url] and true words a...'m at home. too many distractions otherwise.

 

[Cap'n Cooke]

see, now that's the start of a hardcore home gym. looking mighty fine

 

[coolcolj]

yeah wish I had the space and money for a gym at home - nice rack, glute ham bench, reverse hyper, OL lifting platform with bumper plates hmmmm

 

[Vortexx]

I really enjoy the ingeniousity of you guys, making a "crude but does the job" fred flintstone gym out of junk and shrapnel...

 

[Vortexx]

Milos Sarcev said in an interview once that back in Yougaslavia, as construction worker, he and his pals poured concrete cubes with a hole through it. They stuck a piece of metal construction pipe throught the holes and did benchpresses with them. The bench they made from bricks, covered with blanket

....Talking about stone age technology, i love it.

 

[gettinlarger]

heh, I like that big ass Coca Cola bottle in the corner.

 

[Cap'n Cooke]

hah, but it makes a kick-ass beer cooler during gatherings.

i'm definitely putting a fully-equipped gym in my basement once i get a house. i'm interested in seeing the setups of those who have, like goldenone's

 

[coolcolj]

I dream of squatting with a Safety Squat bar one day... at home

 

[ROLGOR]

cap'n looking good. I see you got the same cinder blocks I got for your bench. If you have play it again sports in your area you can get a used smith machine for less than $200 bucks
