This is the first machine he bought 8 years ago brand new…. I think it was like $20,000 or something like that. The Matrix Multi Station 8 stacks….a really awesome machine.
When we saw that we...
Oh yeah $10 is a great price. Yeah when he bought the gym, 8 years ago it had a lot of older wore out equipment, and the setup was horrible. So he started fixing equipment, getting rid of bad...
It is funny when I see how many HS machines I am lucky enough to have access to in in my commercial gym. I think the only back machine we don't have is the low row, and we have all of the pressing...
This is the flat bench…. I want to see how this feels after doing 5/3/1 bench Monday. Just laying on it before leaving today, just to see how the handles felt, it seems like it should spare the...

Thanks, it is hard to see that sometimes when it is you doing it, while easy to see someone else fighting through a struggle and see it as valiant.
Agreed, I definitely get excited with every new...

Hey progress is progress, and we all feed off each other. And continuing to work around injuries and getting it done is just as impressive as great feats of strength.
Right, I really shouldn't play any of this down because it is far better than I was able to do a short while ago. I need to appreciate and have gratitude for being in a position now that...
