Cheers Sam, my lower back and squats have always been my strength, wish my bench was up to par

Training unit is now free, so next saturday will be the big move

Looks like the bench is coming only aswell. Get some pics up of the training unit when you've moved all the kit in! It's always good to see some old fashioned garage/warehouse training setups!

Will do, before and afters, got a lot of kit to put in and planning on making a few bits more

Nice bit of kit Aaron I wish had the skills to make stuff like that,Have you made all your stuff yourself?

Cheers Mark, I have made all my equipment except a lat machine, too much trouble to make the stack, and did not want a plate loaded one, it only cost £150.00 so material would have cost a lot more, but have since altered it to do low pulley rows on as well.

I've got an idea what this is- does this bring in the stabilisers much more than regular press ups? Top work given you're virtually twice as heavy as me!
