Today we bought 2 new Rogue bars plus a rack to store our bars for 450 and we moved all the stuff at the gym location. This weekend we are gonna build 2 platforms and this will be ready next monday hopefully. :D

I'm mostly training for hypertrophy so it's not that heavy. Just high volume.


I'd get the Rogue Ohio power bar w/ zinc http://www.roguecanada.ca/rogue-ohio-power-bar

It's from Rogue Canada so you won't have the pay more for when it cross the border so about 380 after shipping without taxes. It will last.

You guys are suckers for buying new..

Know how many insanely good deals you can get on craigslist/kijiji? So many rich cats that go out and spend thousands on equip that sits there and doesn't get used, then when they want the space they sell it for hundreds.

Guarantee you could've gotten everything you did for roughly half the price, just wouldn't be brand new.


LOL you are out of your mind if you think I could've got all of this for half the price (650$)...Do you really think I got 1425 lbs of weights + a power rack + bench + upper tier bar + back extension for 1300$ new? Nah I bought them from Kijiji and just the weights worth more than that.

I wish I did this when I moved out a couple years ago. Although Im moving back home in a couple months for last college semester so there is no room. But man $700 for all that shit is a HUGEEEEE investment ( no pun intended)

What are you using for a floor?
I just grabbed 1 5x7, 1/2" thick horse stall mat. Thing smells to high hell, but i figure a good power wash and some time in the sun will fix that. For me it was only $65 for one that size.

Resell value will stay pretty high (high enough to resell at the same price) if I wanted to sell later which won't happen. The only reason would e to upgrade later. Stuff will be repaid in 2 years and half of gym membership.

Speaking of that, I just got a sick deal and it was an hour away from home. Borrowed my mom's truck to get it. I'll make my own thread with pics when it's set up, but gear is as follows:

2x 10-130 powerblocks
York barbell with 600 lbs of plates
York EZ curl bar
Northern lights rack with pull up bar
Northern lights low cable/high cable attachment with 210 lbs of plates
Northern lights pec deck
Northern light adjustable bench
2 resistance bands
4 different handles and bars for the pulldown system

1.5k

I feel like a kid on Christmas day! :santa:
