But I get where you're coming from wrt the gym. I want to start this programme - Starting Strength - which only involves 5 main compound lifts, but needs access to a squat rack. I currently go to a "gymgroup" gym, which gets pretty busy during peak time. No problem, I'll try a later time, like 9 last night and have a look. Fuck Me, just as busy, with groups of 4 or 5 hogging up the relatively small weights area.
It's nice and cheap, but I'm wondering if I should settle for the more expensive "spa" gyms - hopefully there'll be less people and I could get a swim in as well.
Or if you've got a garage, you could go slightly mental & build one of these. I did something similar - cost about £100 - £150 in total and it can cope with a damn sight more weight than I can. |
