- Part 1 of my home gym series...
Part 2: the delivery and build.
Part 3: the finished product.
AD* I approached BLKBOX at the end of last year due to some mutual connections and a desire to work with them, I sent them over a list of what I would (ultimately) be after, and they very kindly then offered me a reduced rate in return for working with them on the project.

The horse stall mats you used is the #1 thing to use for flooring as it really is the best at protecting your floor. Pretty much everyone uses it because it is the best.
Inspired. Garage gym is an absolute must for me when buying this year!
100% my man - such a game changer!
Found you off home gym UK. Enjoying the content, home gyms are just soft pron
Really helpful video. I am looking to do the same this year. BLK BOX is the one everything is first class!!!!!!
Good man! Couldn't agree more!
It's honestly depressing your channel has such few subscribers you are so underated 😔
I'll do the time, keep putting stuff out there and see what happens my man - really appreciate the support!
Definitely a training montage using all the equipment, challenge 💪
Solid suggestion! Great minds think alike haha!
Hello Fergus, I'm building a home gym (literally from scratch in some space in the garden) and was wondering how the coating on the Belfast bar has held up? Any discolouration or fading around the grips or J hook areas? I'm sold on a load of BLK BOX gear for my gym but was debating between a Stainless Steel bar from another company or the Belfast bar....keen to know how yours has worn. Thanks for your time.
Keep up the great work, you're an inspiration!
Looking forward to this 😎
Thanks man!
Going to be some set-up👀
Sick content dude, keep it up
Show us part two
Love the vid bro!
Thank you mate hope you're well!
Hi Fergus, enjoying the videos very much! Thank you for putting it all together.
did you do anything in terms of insulation? I have a similar door garage and was wondering if sealing the gaps is necessary. I got all sort of bugs coming in !
Thanks man! I’ve actually had no issues with that at all - which is lucky I think! Might be a case of trying and seeing what happens 🤷♂️
Thanks, Fergus. I'll see how it goes. Were you training in the garage during winter? Was it manageable?
@@ferguscrawley95 how cheap do u think i could make a garage gym for? I have around £5k to spend.
🤙
All garages are set to a fall from back to front.
New to channel and enjoying the content. Similar question from me, what particular mats did you go for in the end and how are you getting on with them, they've got quite a few different types.
Thanks man, appreciate it - I'm afraid I can't find the exact ones I went for as I actually bought them from someone who had a surplus of them, but I believeeee they're the 17mm model!
Is BLK box good?
Excellent! Only thing in my gym that’s not from them is the Texas DL bar as it’s a very specialist bit of kit, other than that they have me covered across the board!
Wouldn't adjustable dumbells be more sensible to save room?
I’m not a fan of them, and can’t really throw them around nearly as effectively for more dynamic work, and they don’t eat up space that I would’ve used for anything else really!
How many matts did you need to buy?
Great Video 👍🏻 - What size / type mat did you chose from horsematsplus? Cheers
Thanks Matthew - I'm afraid I can't find the exact ones I went for as I actually bought them from someone who had a surplus of them, but I believe they're the 17mm model from memory!
Hey man what horse stall Matt on the site did you actually buy and have you found it’s decent?
Hey mate! I'm afraid I can't find the exact ones I went for as I actually bought them from someone who had a surplus of them, but I believe they're the 17mm model from memory!
Where do you put all your crap that normally goes in a garage?
Attic, or a ruthless trip to the skip!
never understand why people buy flat bench and utility bench in a small gym,
could have brought a leg extension/leg curl bench
Flat bench = powerlifting bench press specific due to height and shape. Utility bench = useful for assistance exercises.
= most effective compromise on space for my goals/training demands.
Leg extension and leg curl bench completely futile for my training demand, and again, not a good use of space for my personal goals - all dependent on that at the end of the day!
