My Garage Gym Makeover

I have been so excited over the past week, as I found some great deals on gym equipment.  I can say that my masterpiece is almost complete. It's taken me 8 years to get the gym this far, and I'm so proud of what we've accomlished.  It's hard to imagine that in 2003, we started with an elliptical, a step, and a stability ball. My how we've grown! 

We've been feverishly working over the past several days to position our new equipment while making the gym functional.  Aside from the addition of one piece of equipment down the road, we have finished the process.  Welcome to the new look of the Underground!  If you want to come train with us, just fill out my contact form!  You can view our blog site anytime at http://atxunderground.blogspot.com/.

Here's a trip down memory lane.... :-)

Day 20: Gym Re-Organization Day!!

Well, I spent the better part of 5 hours today working in the gym. We got 3 new horse stall mats (from Tractor Supply Company) to complete the mat layout on the main workout floor.  If you've never moved a stall mat, they are heavy. I was sweating buckets. Luckily we had a very cool breeze today, which was nice!  In addition to installing the flooring (and sweeping, mopping, etc), we moved alot of equipment around to improve overall functionality.  Tomorrow the treadmill and bikes will be delivered.  We will finish placing everything once they arrive.  I sold a few pieces of equipment that I don't use much anymore to make room for the newer stuff.  Like I said yesterday, all that's left now will be to add the Versaclimber, a new rope, and a few new kettlebells once the renovation is complete.  It's looking good, but I'm exhausted now :-)

Time to take a hot shower and cuddle up with a movie of some sort.
