I just wanted to share a few pictures of my home gym that I put together. Ever since I stopped working out a few years back, I put on 40 lbs. But coming to this website has inspired me to get control over my health and body. I began my training Jan. 18/04 @ 225lbs.
As of today, Feb. 8/04 I am down to 213lbs.
Good luck to everyone, and keep motivated :tucool:

Thanks for the comments. I wanted to make the gym very appealing in order for me to get motivated to work out. Therefore I decided to pull out all the stops on this build project, and I haven't looked back. :tu:

Nice looking gym! Curious how much for that contraption and if you find the restricted motion (compared to free weights) to restrict your growth at all?

Thanks MGB :cool:
The Powertec Multi Leverage Gym goes for roughly 900-1300 USD.
I have no complaints with it so far, I find it to be a very useful tool. My routine revolves around the use of the leverage gym and free weights. From my own experience, I find that if I strictly use machines or just free weights then I become restricted or limited to my growth and gains. The key for me is to constantly change things and have a wide range of variety in excercises. What I like most about the leverage gym obviously would be that I require no spotter. It is great to load up the weight and not worry for a spot at all. :tu:

Awesome setup!!!
I'm a devout Powertec, Body Solid man myself. Nothing better than buying stuff you know you'll have the rest of your life.
