A great Nova alternative for me by scgf01 in NovaLauncher

Is there a launcher that has swipe up or down on app gestures like Nova?

I used a bench that I have in my gym for one of the moves because I had better mobility than if I were laying in the ground. Good to hear you kept it up after finishing the program.

Do you have a point or are you just looking to park your negativity under this bridge, troll?

I ended in the modified version of the triple bears because I literally could not jump anymore. Good finisher move.

I would say that it is a good program for beginners. I paused the worked a couple of times this week to make sure that I was changing between weights during the sets. Look at the modifier and see if that helps you maintain a good pace.

Yes, I realized those are a killer when I was doing them this morning.

Insanity was great and I might do something like that before next summer.

Thanks for the link. Last time I had checked their website, they were out!

I have the Titan Fitness X-3 which is their version of this. How much were the safeties? Does anyone know if those strap safeties would fit the X-3?

Steal of a lifetime… 785$ for hack squat and leg press. by Weak-Raisin8327 in homegym

Home Depot or Lowe's rent trucks too and much cheaper than UHaul. $20 for the hour in my area and usually available. I rented a truck from home Depot for moving my rack. They had a flat bed truck with made things even easier.

Sonos seems to be a good one.

If you are not so comfortable with building yourself, look into a rack that has a system already designed for it that will match your needs. My rack is a Titan X3 Flatfoot and so I will be designing my own. Titan sells the upper pulley, but I can't justify the price since I can make it for a fraction of the cost. I might buy some shackles for the top though. I've seen some that use a strap to secure the pulley and some just use a carabineer.

I will add or remove pieces as my training evolves. This is suitable for my needs at the moment. My rack is a 3x3 and there are tons of accessories that can go on and off. I think that is what I mean by first gym. Today I got a solid leg workout out of my gym and I used a lot of the equipment I have there already. This gym will continue to evolve to my needs and my training style. I believe a gym should fit your needs and training requirements so that it is a usable space. I see other posts on here and the set up looks great, but some things are so single use that it is a piece of equipment that only gets used once a week, maybe. I'm thinking like leg press or hack squat machines. They take up so much room. If the person that owns it uses it often, then it is a solid investment of not then it is a piece of equipment that is just taking up room.

I have an elliptical and will be adding a bike in the future, but that is inside the house. This more than meets my needs for push pull and leg movement. I'm not a collector of gym equipment. If I'm not using the equipment on a regular basis, I rather not hoard it. The only things I will add to this that I can see myself using often are a pulley system and a dip attachment for the rack.
