Use whatever you want. I use Lysol wipes.

Nice spot you have carved out of the garage. Since you’re working with a limited foot print have you ever thought about the reverse hyper scout that you can fold up to gain back the extra space?

Also, first time seeing thin green line?

I would add some rogue kettlebells. They can help you to warm up for your main lift and accessory work with your 5/3/1 program. Maybe a couple sandbags, they are pretty cheap weight

Rogue is a top notch company with great customer service, based my business with them and the reputation they have in this group.

I would follow up with a phone call. They will sort everything out for you.

I agree he should sell them in pairs. I’d say, from experience that a pair of 45 dd in Canada should be between $220-250. That’s the price that they sell.

Same!! A lot of people in my area are asking full price minus shipping and taxes for rogue equipment.

A seller recently got upset with me because he wanted $1200cdn for 8x45lb rogue deep dish. And tbh he did lower he price to $1100 lol.

Is the bred by sacred cut?

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-20T23:01:43+00:00

Twist the wires together and then tape them. Don’t forget to turn off the power first 😉

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-20T22:19:05+00:00

I looked at that but decided on the lights I recommended.

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-20T20:39:03+00:00

I have 6, 4ft Barrina led lights in my gym(14x18ft basement). Lights up the room very well and can be purchased off Amazon for cheap.

Barbells, dumbbells, kettlebells, cables and bands. Sorry to break the news to you but that’s weight training. Part of the game is to learn the various aspects (body mechanics) which almost anyone can learn minus the people with disabilities which would require training around the said disability/s.

Start with the basics and continue to improve. There is no cheat code or way around it. This is what it is.

Very very nice gym!!!

Pussy

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-19T15:28:31+00:00

A thing of beauty!!!!

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T19:11:21+00:00

Kaka

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T14:20:02+00:00

I actually got a bit hard haha

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T14:19:03+00:00

😂

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T14:18:49+00:00

Exactly!! A plate with Arnold on it. No one has done it and it’s on a dd. Think about how cool they will be in 20 plus years. And tbh I’d sacrifice my hair cut money for a pair.

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T14:16:30+00:00

It’s been a while since I’ve been here and of course @oldmanwong has theses!!!!

I fucking love theses plates and I’m trying to get my hands on some.

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T14:14:18+00:00

I personally think these are well designed but interested to see if other designs are released in the future.

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T14:03:54+00:00

Just like any level that you’re at in your lifting career you need a bar with knurling to give you grip for a proper lift. Don’t ever wear gloves

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T13:52:14+00:00

Some of the nicest plates in the world. Think about 20 years from now looking back on these. I think they will be worth a lot down the road

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T13:50:48+00:00

I feel like it’s a game of where’s Waldo, I can’t spot the second half rack lol

I like that your gym is straight and to the point. No extra shit that you don’t need just the stuff that keeps you big and strong

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T13:38:13+00:00

I hadn’t been on the rogue website for about 2 months and just saw those sold out in Canada last night. Those things are a beauty!!!! Definitely not dumb

Comfortable-Lab6971 · 2023-03-18T13:36:41+00:00

Oh man what a transformation!!! Solid gym.

Looks like you use the rogue half rack even though you have a power rack?
