I have got such a solid confession.
I have the day off work.
Today is my squat workout.
I have been begging the wife over email (because she is working) for a chore to do so I can delay the workout.
Anyway, off to pick up rice crispy treats for the school fundraiser.

To be fair, if I had the day off work Iād be more likely to want to hit a bar than a squat rack.
Wait: how do you hit the bar when itās not in the rack?

No. You go to the bar to check out the racks.

Itās because you have a home gym. Half the reason I work out is because there are women there. Who ignore me, but thatās a different story.
They often notice me, but always for the wrong reasons.

And just when I was about to freak out due to gymsā closure, run off and buy a whole home gym on Amazon (I did put the items in the cart, then I looked at the final price and decided it wasnāt a very good idea after all), I found this in the basement
It doesnāt look very stable but my father secured it to a wall, I did a few test reps and it doesnāt feel bad.
Apocalypse aināt stopping me from working out.
Now I gotta find something for dips though.

Are the top bars not sturdy enough for dips? High-rep bodyweight at least, if not weighted.

My thought as well, but he might have a ceiling to deal with.

Exactly. Unfortunately thatās the case. I need to find something at a height I can work with
Turn the rack upside down. Duh.

Perfect. I was going to suggest he drill a giant head-shaped hole in his ceiling as an alternative.
