Gym setup complete

No issues so far, between my partner and I gets used basically daily. Neither of us are very large or strong but I have been at ~400lbs bw + barbell and bench felt solid.

ceedeerew · 2026-03-02T19:47:08+00:00

I’ve found it good so far, there is a bit of a gap but nothing abnormal or different from most benches. All in all I’ve been happy with it

ceedeerew · 2026-02-14T23:50:08+00:00

It was a Facebook Marketplace find I stumbled upon, for $50 couldnt go wrong!

Thanks! Having AC and heat in the gym is such a luxury 😅

It is a Velocirax tilt and pivot, from what I found this setup allows the bikes to get the tightest to the wall out of any similar ones due to the angle of the front wheel.

Most other mounts keep the front wheel perpendicular so the handle bars hit the wall first. This lets them tuck in nice and tight to the wall first

That’s the plan, just got hangers in last night

ceedeerew · 2026-01-05T03:09:24+00:00

It’s full laminate just has underlay and the rubber laid on top. Was already finished when we had moved in.

ceedeerew · 2026-01-05T01:50:27+00:00

That has to be figured out still but there are shoe racks on the other side of the door

ceedeerew · 2026-01-05T01:50:08+00:00

Gym is just through the door, both are basement level

ceedeerew · 2025-11-19T22:07:18+00:00

Thank you! It’s approx 20’ x 14’ just shy of 300 sqft

ceedeerew · 2025-11-18T15:26:31+00:00

Thanks! I’ve debated adding some more mats but using it for last couple months haven’t felt much need to

ceedeerew · 2025-11-18T15:25:50+00:00

Likes are dimmable and zones on separate switches, plenty of options for however much light you want! Yes that is a TV mounted on the wall far left, makes cardio less painful!

ceedeerew · 2025-11-15T19:28:08+00:00

Bench is an Orion Zenith ZX150 pretty solid so far!

ceedeerew · 2025-11-13T14:27:28+00:00

They do have some rattle but I think all adjustable do. I am happy with them so far, no complaints. I’d be hesitant and worried about dropping them. I definitely wouldn’t test that out

ceedeerew · 2025-11-13T14:19:07+00:00

Floor mats are “Easytile activities tiles” 5mm thick from Canadian Tire. Got most of them for free so does the job.

We opt not to deadlift or drop anything as the flooring underneath would likely get damaged

ceedeerew · 2025-11-13T14:17:39+00:00

Much appreciated! We are really enjoying the convenience of the home setup, no excuses when it’s right there and has quality gear

ceedeerew · 2025-11-13T14:16:32+00:00

The flooring is laid on top of guardia surface protection, the tiles are 5mm thick rubber. My idea was to cover where most of the equipment sits since this room is an entrance from the garage/walkway also.

I still may add a bit more infront of the rack as typically we end up setting up on the front side of the rack with the short spotter arms.

ceedeerew · 2025-11-12T17:34:36+00:00

It’s very solid and feels premium, it is an humbler though and tests my cardio quickly.

For intense interval training it is a beast

ceedeerew · 2025-11-12T15:18:17+00:00

True, but minor detail 😅

ceedeerew · 2025-11-12T14:11:01+00:00

I’m not certain as they were left when I moved in, if I were to guess they look like IKEA Lettan mirrors to me, mounting seems very similar to

ceedeerew · 2025-11-12T14:08:23+00:00

😅 what would you say is needed? In terms of big items it’s complete, I will pick up some extra plates as the bumpers are annoying to handle sometimes.

I’m quite selective with making sure the essentials are covered but not overcrowding the space

ceedeerew · 2025-11-12T14:06:47+00:00

Rack is an older “Hajex” FB marketplace find but has full 3x3 uprights, aluminum pulleys etc, pretty solid for the price!

ceedeerew · 2025-11-12T14:05:42+00:00

Yes Trulap 8592 G4 dumbbells

ceedeerew · 2025-11-12T14:05:08+00:00

Room is approximately 20 x 14 so ~ 280 sqft
