    A stretch area with foam flooring would be great for mobility, stretching, and core work! Different resistance bands, different foam rollers, and other core accessories like med balls, ab roller, yoga blocks, yoga & bosu balls would be a great addition to the gym! As a trainer, this is the goal to eventually have this im so jealous! Can't wait to see what else you do with the space!

    Meg, thank you for giving us a detailed tour of your private gym. I am very impressed with the setup. Two additions that you may want to consider including are an area to do landmines and a battle rope station.

    Hi Meg, a couple of years ago i found your channel while searching for powerlifting tutorials (and stayed after noticing that you used the metric system :) ). Since then i'm coming back every once in a while - not for every life and business update, but usually for tips and guides etc. And of course for a gym tour!
    And although i'm not checking in regularly (or maybe because of that), when i do watch a video i'm constantly noticing, that you seem to gain energy and positivity each and every time. That's inspirational and really fun to witness. You're a great advertiser for strength-training!
    Greetings from germany!

    • @rell7773

    Nice private gym! I have half my garage and a sunroom in my home dedicated to fitness equipment! Taken years to build up. Still adding where I can, running out of space! My dream would be to have a home gym that can accommodate anyone! I don't go to a gym so it's very important to me to have plenty of options at home. Loved this video and happy that you shared pricing as some items weren't as expensive as I thought they would be. Nice video!

  • @saraheeee
    @saraheeee Před rokem +1

    Very nice! Moving on up! I’m proud of our little garage gym. Having a home gym is a game changer. I am a house wife and have a lot of littles so it’s better for me just to run into the garage and pound out a couple sets. I love weight lifting but not getting ready, getting into the car, and going to the gym.

    I think rogue does custom equipment (or at least they can). one of the owners (caity) is from my hometown. there's a strength and conditioning center there that was built in memory of her younger brother who passed away his freshman year, and rogue fully stocked it with equipment with rogue logos plus Bluffton Pirate (school mascot) logos and colors.

    Three years ago, on your "How to get your first pullup" video, under a different name, I commented with "I'm a guy. Can I still be a strong strong muscle mermaid princess?".
    Over the last three years, my depression and anxiety became worse than ever. I stopped lifting and stopped exercising entirely as I struggled with my mental health. I gained a ton of weight back that I had lost 10 years earlier (100lbs...yikes!) and my cardio health is a disaster. I had started a desk job a couple of years earlier, and I haven't adapted to stay healthy, plus the pandemic was a convenient excuse to become reclusive.
    But I survived, and things are finally turning around. I stopped hiding from myself and came to recognize the reality that I am transgender. I've come out to my friends and family, have begun the process of changing my name, and will being my medical transition soon.
    My entire mental state is changing in so many positive ways, and I'm feeling good about eating properly and exercising again. I'm way less anxious and depressed, and I've become more outgoing. And I'm excited to finally make my dream of becoming a strong strong muscle mermaid princess come true!
    You are a huge source of inspiration for me, and I'm so glad to be watching your videos again. I'm going to keep coming back here to re-learn from scratch and get excited about lifting weights and running!
    Thank you for everything you do!

  • @traviswurz9951
    @traviswurz9951 Před rokem

    Really like the gym. At the beginning you asked for suggestions, I’d say the only thing I can think of is a belt squat, chest supported row or independent cable row I think you said the cable row kinda sucks on the lat pull down. Jealous of the ghost stuff I’d love to have one of their combos someday!!!!!

  • @dylansevitt
    @dylansevitt Před rokem

    Cool video, a little dark...
    Some ideas for equipment: hammer strength isolateral pulldown machine, any chest supported row machine, peck deck(that allows for reseverse flies), adductor machine(you might find one that flips and does abduction too), a Smith machine (good for banded pressing)

  • @whitneylindquist456

    You should grab a tractor tire from a local farmer and buy a couple of varying weight sledge hammers. Also a wall and slam ball. We love our rower and are buying an assult bike (or a stand to pedal our actual bikes on) soon for our home gym. We are climbers as well so we keep a hangboard in the house which is fun for grip strength.
