Anyone have ideas for some simple home made equipment? Would have loved to make my own power rack but needed something quickly.
The resistance bands are working out better than I thought. Granted it’s higher rep workouts, but with multiple bands I can get myself failing at 10 reps.
Also with the multiple bands, can do multiple drop sets by eliminating bands. Lots of room outdoors, so have multiple points of attachments & multiple stations for supersets.
Bought some machine attachments: a rope for triceps, handle for close grip rows & a curl bar.
Nice rack your gonna be able to do a lot with that.

Arm blasters, Prox? No sir, we didn't have too much spare $$. The first time I saw one was at the local rec center when the older guys found out I had a pretty good knack for dishing out
more punishment than I received.
They finally started letting me lift with them and one of the guys had one. It was "meh" , but I was used to doing endless concentration curls with some second or thirdhand York concrete weights and just was awkward and seemed foreign to me

A week or so ago part of the support arm on my Body Solid adjustable bench fell off when I was moving it. Thank god it happened then and not when under pressure. Anyway, I was able to get it back together but it's not 100% correct. I emailed Body Solid support and they responded with an illustration and asked me exactly what parts, etc. I described it and sent pics. They're sending it free of charge. Can't beat that for a 15 year old bench!
Was quite surprised and impressed.
True. Reminds me I had an issue with my leg extension / curl machine a few years ago. It's plate loaded, cam operated. It's a Hoist brand from memory but I could be wrong and my legs are sore from yesterday so I'm not walking downstairs to check! Point is they did the exact same thing.
Pisses me off i can't remember the brand at the moment. It's what happens when you get old!
