Do you have a home gym?

What's in it?
How do you use it?
What's your routine?

When we moved into our house, the builder had made a small room with a steam room in it. Since the room was oddly shaped and we didn't need the space for anything else, we turned it into a home gym.

Both the wife and I workout with a trainer. 3x a week, in the morning, he comes to the house and is very reasonable in price ($35/hr.)

Routine is:

Five minute warm up on the elliptical


Then outside for 3-5 minutes of jump rope:


Then comes the boxing
Usually 3x3 min rounds of glove work on the Widows Walk, top terrace of my house:





Followed by a round or two of heavy bag:


Then another 3 minutes of jump rope, combined with jumping jacks and backyard sprints.

THen we go inside for weight training which starts with 3 rounds of pushups:


Then we mix up the workouts to include, Back, Chest, Shoulders, Bi's, Tri's,
(I benched 195lbs. today)








Usually finish up with some lower back and abs stuff.


and a nice steam when time allows:


The gym needs some repair because of a roof leak we had last summer but I'm looking forward to getting it fixed up, cleaned up, hanging everything, etc.

Yes, I'm still fat, but I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of my overhand RIGHT..

The gym is tight but it works.
