what does your gym need? - Page 3

Flighty · 06-12-2005, 03:32 AM

i would seriously fatigue my wrists if i typed everything that my gym needs

the short list is:

DB's heavier than 85
cleanliness
enough collars for all the bars
knowledgable members who's quads are larger than their biceps
a juice bar that actually serves healthy shakes
more employees (other than me) that know what they're doing
equipment that works
celebrities other than fags like Sisqo and Mario

Hilarious, can't believe they can still afford bodyguards. Can you say one hit wonder?

No prob on the invite, it'll be great to have you around again. Been to long.

I also hate the people who put the 45 pound plates on top of the 5 pounders. Dumb shits.....find another frickin peg!

LOL, my problem is I'm a little obsessive about it, and end up putting other peoples plates away between sets.

Heh......I'm not that nice.

Also, I don't like to exert myself at all between sets other than to put my own weights away. It wastes precious energy

LOL, like I said, I can be somewhat compulsive at times.

Here's some pics of my home gym. We're getting ready to start the mural on the walls, hence the vivid green paint job.

Thing · 06-18-2005, 07:34 PM

Here's a few more pics. Those 2 holes in the wall behind the squat machines are from the damned Bowflex poswer rods, bastard machines!! If you guys are home gymmers, LOOK ON EBAY !! I got that Tectrix stepper for $250, I have about $1200 in my entire set up. Just search for items that are close to you.The one thing I would be careful of on Ebay is Powerblocks, they bring high end money, don't getting into a pissing match and get left hold ing the bag. If anyone's close to me that needs repairs, I can weld like a mofo all I need from you is the steel to put it together. I'm also going to sit down and write a program for making power racks soon for something to do this winter when I have nothing else to do.

Looks like a cool set up bro. I actually think the green is kinda cool.

I need a pulley tower. Mine is built into my power rack so there is no good way to lock yourself down and move heavier weights. I built this thing out of wood as a way to hold you down by your legs, but it kinda sucks.

Josie · 07-05-2005, 08:50 PM

Well they've made a new site with a "gym tour" for the gym I represent.

Look at it it's perfect!

You can click on the small Pro gym image within the tour to switch to another room, or use the pull down list

WOW! That's a big ass gym!! Looks pretty sweet, was hoping to see you in there working out though.

**Peaked_18** · 07-06-2005, 02:24 AM

My Gym Needs
- Mats
I hate doing Deadlifts and not being able to drop the weight.
- More Hammer Strength Machines
I love these machines, need some more of them.
- More 45 lb. plates
Seriously, there are like 3 or 4 in the gym, somewhere....
- More Dumbbells
My gym only goes from 5 lbs. to 90 lbs. We need some more weight.
- More Benches
There aren't more then 2 or 3 benches you can use in the gym.
- Needs more fixed equipment
We got 5 broken machines here.
- More space
To little of a gym, needs more space.

I guess that's about it for my gym, it's a pretty nice gym, plus it's only $30 a month.
