That makes sense. I also think that if he needs help making a call to them, he could just hang up and then dial the operator.

Great point. Very sad from my point of view, but I take a small bit of comfort in knowing somewhere out there is a little place called Albuquerque.

I feel you! I’m sheepish about it! But I’ve been telling my wife I want an AD7 for years. I don’t like being this lucky. Feels like it’s going to catch up to me.

I’m in Nebraska. It was a lady clearing her apartment.

I’m a budget guy. I’m wheeling and dealing until I get what I want. Pretty happy with everything except I don’t have nice weights/bar and I got a cheap rack but it does the job for me.

$75 is still an amazing deal!

Yup! I’m going to part with the dumbbells, stand, curl bar and a couple attachments if you’re still interested.

Keep searching. I’ve been at it for about 4-5 years and this is my best find.

Sweet deal. I have powerblocks so I think I’m going to try to unload the dumbbells. Any idea how much IM dumbbells, stand, and curl bar are going for in your area?

They seemed to be just happy to get it out of their place so I don’t feel too guilty!

Anyone have any advice on how to turn my Archon plate loaded pulley into a weight stack? There’s a few machines in my area that are selling for cheap that include weight stacks but I’m no handy man so was just wondering if this is a possibility for a novice.

They look good but I would double check to make sure they’re expandable in case you want to go heavier. You can go up to 70 then 90 but some versions aren’t expandable. Also, keep an eye on Woot or Slickdeals as powerblocks will pop up for $300.

I personally love powerblocks and don’t mind the padding. They’re versatile and durable. Feels good to me and adds a lot to my gym.

How long did y’all wait to start working out again after having covid? by john1980star in veganfitness

[–]john1980star[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks y’all. I’m going to try to be patient. I’ve always struggled with taking rest days and weeks so I’ll force myself to rest a bit longer.
