New workout room
The girlfriend suggested some changes to the living room. It required a table from the basement game room. So then the game room has a big hole in it.
I decided to clean the game room and then got the idea to put all the excercise equipment the wife brought home over the years into that room. (for those not up on things, I am not LDS, the wife passed last year).
Well, now that the machines are in there, why not bring down the weights and floor matts from the bedroom. Tada! I have a workout room.
I christened it yesterday with some heavy upper body work. Volume sets. 40 lb db inclined presses -8X10, 20 db inlcined flies -10X10. Bicep curls, rowing machine, pullups etc. then an hour of roller blading and back for some repeats.
This is going to be cool. I still have a lot of work to do to get the room in order, but it is useable now. There are some toys to get out, and the drywall needs to be taped and painted and there is still some board to hang. I plan to use the big mirror from my bathroom for the wall, and get two smaller mirrors for my bathroom. Oh, plus I get to put a desk in my room to get my personal stuff out of my office.

Does the girlfriend workout with you in your "new" gym or only to rearrange your house?
