Basement Powerlifting Gym
Garage Crossfit Gym
Garage Crossfit Gym
This past weekend, I spent a lot of time on Saturday rearranging the gym and gave it a test ride on Sunday with a workout.
This split works surprisingly well as Crossfit metabolic conditioning workouts never take weight from the rack. Also powerlifting movements are nearly always stand alone strength movements.
The powerlifting space has a distracting aesthetic, but is remarkably functional. I still need to move down the Hi Temp Bumpers, EZ Curl Bar and Plates, Mutt Bar and Chains. I had originally planned on moving down the Ab Bench and Hip Extension, but those are going to stay in the garage.
The Crossfit space feels great. I am likely going to move the 12" and 18" plyo boxes out to make more room for Olympic lifting. I will also probably bring the Concept2 rower upstairs. Otherwise, no changes are expected.
More importantly - Any additional equipment will really cramp the space. That means no Ski Erg, no Assault Bike, no Lat Pull Down / Low Row. That means no more weight. That means no GHD, no Reverse Hyper.
I even question the idea of fractional plates or SYQQ collars. Fortunately, neither of those take up any space.
