I am starting to build up my gym and it looks like I have a few more bucks to spend for now. I do have some medical concerns, and I will have to limit somethings like Box Jumps, running in the heat, actually just working out in the heat. This is one major reason I am building an area to work out at home that is Air conditioned.
What I have already gathered, ordered or have planned.
12X8 platform/workout area, center will be nice plywood to mount rack and have a lifting area. The two sides will be 4X8 areas to have enough room to do different Movements. My room is 13X10.
Titan T3 HD short rack, should be here today
400+ pound bumper set from Vulcan, I'll probably need some more weight soon
Vulcan Change plates
Vulcan Standard Olympic Bar 28.5mm
Nice wooden Olympic rings ( forget brand, but they have nice numbered straps and some good looking well reviewed rings)
Building some Plyo boxes, might as well break out my Woodworking tools
Basic personal gear, Abmat, jump rope
Things I am considering
Medicine ball set, most probably 14lb and 20lb for now (looking at RepFitness)
Kettlebells, I really like the American Barbell models, thinking 35, 45, 55 lbs plus something for the wife, I rarely have gone heavier on a KB
Bench... I never use a bench for bench press, I had a fancy Body Solid bench that was too big, too tall, and just in the way at my previous house. Just a basic flat bench maybe... there is a cheap adidas bench that gets good reviews, not paying $300 for something that is going to rarely get used, probably will be a seat more than anything else.
I really want a GHD but DO not want to put out the money for what they ask for these days. $600 for a basic GHD is highway robbery. Maybe the NYBB one is good enough. These things use to be CHEAP. Before Crossfit was big I bought a commercial one for a couple hundred bucks when I purchased my previous Rack. (this was YEARS ago, items have been sold by now)
Any suggestions. I guess I have about $1000 to spend on top of what I already have or have ordered.
I don't have room indoors for a rope, might get one in the fall for outside, wall ball shots are going to be interesting with an 8ft ceiling.
