I live close to Copenhagen, so that would be a pretty long trip. They ship to DK, but I think the bigger problem is that they have the same issue everyone else has…it is almost all out of stock.
Still, worth keeping an eye on, so thanks for the links!
Tell me about it. I just wanna impulse buy and blow all my money and I can’t
Take a look at Trithon.dk
Everything is out of stock, but there should be something back by the end of may.
Or wait a month I’m sure some of the dudes who have bought home gym equipment are getting tired of it and wants to sell it.
Yeah, I actually check there regularly (based on your previous recommendation). Although it looks to me like most of there stuff is coming back in stock in August.
My main issue right now is that I am not convinced I even want a home gym. Argh. I hate my indecisiveness sometimes.
If you don’t have the space, don’t.
It’s ugly, takes up a lot of space and you’d have to look at it all the time.
Keep your little sturdy bar, that’ all you need. (Maybe an adjustable DB)
For complete context, what I basically have access to right now:
-My pullup bar.
-Ab roller
-120 cm bar that I can load up to 83 kilo
-Blocks (yoga and cement) for pushups and HSPUs
-2 Adjustable DBs that can be loaded up to 34 kilo when used together, or a single DB loaded to like 62 kilo
-Parallel bars at the playground for dips and weighted dips
-Playground also has pullup bars that I could weight as much as I want. Can do MUs there, but I would rate the bars as “shitty” for that purpose.
-Bob
So it is not like I have a major problem. It basically means no heavy squats, no heavy deadlifts, and a less than ideal platform for overhead presses, cleans and presses, push presses. And in the grand scheme, I don’t need to do the deadifts, and the Bulgarians and high rep squats will keep me busy for a long time even without going heavy. Upper body is no problem to train.
I feel like I am talking myself out of it.
You have more than enough to keep you ticking over without spending anything. If I were in your situation I wouldn’t buy much else.
I dunno mort. I like to go out in the carport in the morning sit on nice plush chair beside the home gym eat yum yums, soak up some sun then give me Barbell a kiss and head into work.
It is just this built in compulsion to want to lift heavy. Hard to stop doing that after all these years.
I get it, but if you life in a 1 room apartment then you’d have to look at it all the time and curse everytime you stumble across it. Maybe even have to toss out the TV to fit the powerrack and cable cross over thing.
Then u can sleep with your barbell and cuddle it goodnight.
More power to you if you don’t consider walking lunges with 34kg dumbbells or barbell split squats with 83kg to be heavy, but that would be pretty sufficient for me!
I was literally about to write that hamster would make love to his equipment given the chance, and here he comes and basically says it himself.
Bar needs to be lubricated dude. There is no other way
Well, you kinda hit the nail on the head. None of this is “heavy” in the traditional sense of two legged work. But for single leg? Definitely. Which is why I am talking myself into it being sufficient for the time being.
This.
I’d consider going all @TX_iron and seeing what kind of “heavy lifitng” you can do with natural stuff like rocks and stones and stuff. I don’t know how much access you have to this stuff.
Well, I don’t have access to any big rocks or anything. Or maybe I do, I could dig a massive hole in my backyard to see if there is anything interesting down there.
Go park get rocks profit
Having my burger today, as promised. I present to you all my simple creation hereby dubbed Sex Midget. Because it’s a fucking half-pounder.
