I think it was mentioned in an unrelated thread. No chance of finding it now. Oh well. Not had any problems myself though.

First delivery of gym equipment has arrived.

                                                                               

This little lot consists of this:

Body Power 5-30Kg Hex Dumbbell Set & Rack

Powertec Workbench Weight Rack

Body Power 6' Olympic Bar (Fits Olympic Width Equipment)

I wanted rubber dumbbells but they were coming out to much money and this rack should save some space.

I also went for a 6ft bar because although a 7ft would have fit it would have been tight loading and unloading.

This bar fits my power rack and will hold enough weight for the time being!

Pictures have now been sorted!!!!

I also laid out the rubber matting this morning. This was originally used under AstroTurf pitches and came in four rolls. The marks on them is just sand that I will sweep off and clean up. I have laid them out to give them a chance to flatten out before I cut them and lay them tomorrow.

That looks great, and much easier to follow now they are up the right way. Looks like a good quality cabin. Keen to see it progress. Good work.

The balance of the gym equipment comes Friday so I need to get the floor laid tonight or tomorrow.

I'm not looking forward to dragging all the weight to the end of the garden!!!! It's not like I can even get the kids or the misses to help!

That'll be your first workout!
