    I train at home

    -Got my own music as loud as i want
    -Can train naked and admire myself if i wish
    -No waiting for particular dumbells etc
    -Always trained alone so dont care about training partners, if i did need a spotter my wifes always there

    Jealous of your gyms guys, i dont have the space for that level yet.

    I only have a bench, pull down attachment, dumbells and 130kg in steel plates but it does the job, i dont believe in machines anyway.

    I do visit a gym every couple of weeks to blast the cable machine though, which i find myself having to wait to use, then when i get on it the annoyance of people asking if i have many sets left on it to which i reply "yea fuk1ng loads so get lost"

    Shit, Tax you've got the essentials. It's all.about how.you work the muscle not necessarily what you work it with in most cases anyway. I've just found odds and ends at a price I was willing to pay over the years.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

    That actually looks pretty useful. I'll have to keep an eye out for the "fat boy" model.
