Home Gym

[walt4dun]

Recently got clearance from The Warden that I can turn the bonus room over the garage into a dedicated home gym. I'm stoked about building it out.

Equipmentwise, I have most of the essentials now and am piecing together more equipment from craigslist as it becomes available.

I have been doing crossfit wods for a couple of years and pretty much know what I want but I am open to suggestions too if you think I am leaving out something super cool and fun.

Essential Equipment:

Olympic bar
Rubber bumper plates
Weight rack
Squat rack
Kettlebells
24" box
Medicine ball
Flat bench
Jump rope
Horse stall mats.

I plan to build a jungle gym that will include high and low pullup bars, and a dip station. I can do ring dips off the high pullup bar. My cleilings aren't really tall enough to justify a rope.

I live less than half a mile from the bay so I can just run over there, swim, row, etc so that saves on a rowing machine since I just use the kayak which is more fun anyway.

I can spend hours looking at all the motivating posters etc to decorate with but thats all fluff. As far as equipment goes what else would you suggest?
