;D there's some show on called million dollar rooms. a-fraud the new york yank-it reports that jose canseco spent 1.3 million on his in-home gym anyone been there or seen pics of it ?
-
just looked at their website. mark wahlberg has a 2.5 million dollar gym in his home ... ;D
-
I've seen pictures of Marky Mark's gym. If he spent that much he was ripped off big time.
-
brand new, about 130,ooo dollars will give you every piece of equipment and cardio you need

lol I doubt an entire average Golds or Powerhouse Gym would cost 1.3 million. What kind of equipment would that guy have in there?

u cannot buy that machine with cash as the resident manufacturers located in nebula 6 only accept dilithium crystals as payment.

and what would make a commercial gym pricey to equip is multiple numbers of treadmills and ellipticals that a home gym would not require.

This is shit real estate goons tell peole when they tyr n sell th hunk of shit later.

Damn Vince looks happy on that machine.
As to Jose and Wahlberg, was the equipment old or new, and of the same make?
If so, I bet there was plug-ola going on there. Company comps or deeply discounts the stuff, gets free plugs in return.

This is the first time machine that runs with biceps-power!

That is the stupidity of the filthy rich people. They put 2.5 million $ in the equipment, which you can easily buy with 250 000$.
-
lol I doubt an entire average Golds or Powerhouse Gym would cost 1.3 million. What kind of equipment would that guy have in there?
No my golds gym spent over 4mil.
We are talking machines that cost 5-10 grand per piece and one for every bodypart, probably 2 of every type of cardio equipment, weights, small track, batting cage and a boxing ring with the works, factor in sauna, hot tubs, showers, mirrors, 1 million would go quick.

so than it is possible a far cry from this{pic'd below} wonder what the equipment in the original gold's gym went for.

haha, when my members demand that i get these new high tec pieces of equipment i say ' i don't remember Arnold using that, and he was better built than all of us are gonna be'
people want shortcuts and something else to do the work for them. that equipment doesnt exist.

130k 250k 1.3mil and all you're going to do is replicate a commercial box gym with a bunch of machines..lol. Less than 50k gets you a real gym and if you know how to train, gets you better results.

you don't have the bicep peak or lower chest that Arnold had but I think you've got just as much if not more muscle than he ever had. and you get in way better condition to. just sayin.

holy shit, huge compliment! but i don't think i came even close to how good Arnold was.

The equipment for the first golds gym wasn't even brand new.
Joe Gold got it from some closing down Vic Tanny gyms.
-
Joe Gold made most of the equipment in the original Gold's in his garage.

you dont, he would mop the floor with you, but thats because of his genetic shape, peaked biceps, and thick lower chest. but in terms of raw, conditioned muscle i think you are pretty damn close to if not beating him. your contest weight is similar to what his was right? and your a couple inches shorter? plus more conditioned.

The house he owned five or so years ago in Florida wasn't even worth 1.3. More media bullshit.

This so called gym appears cold and uninviting from these pics. Gyms are all about ambience -this place is devoid of any atmospere/spirit.
Yes coach, for someone who proclaims to be 'so busy' why in Christ's name do you spend endless hour after hour on GB.
Not hating , just telling the truth to someone who is just 'so so busy' .....peace

That gym pulled in $39k last month....blow me. BTW, I don't work at 10:45 on a Saturday night. Do you think I'm the only one training people?? Do you go to a gym to train or the ambiance? If it's the latter, then you should re-evaluate your training.
-
wow, chill out bro... Take it down a notch. I am expressing a personal opinion. I value a sense of ambience when i train.
I don't believe in dungeon training. The warrior mentality is something that i find sad and appalling.
May it is time you reassess your values bro.
Coach, you certainly have a love affair going with GB. What is this all about?

50k on the gym, 1.25 mil on Coke... he snorts in the gym... so technically, it spent 1.3 on a home gym

Your obviously poor with math among other things. I'm sure your pulling down 400k a year in that storage unit. ::) Not even if you pulled down your posing trunks for every schmoe that walked through the door.

Maybe you just don't know the training business or what business models should be used.

Why don't you tell the nice people of this board why you troll me with gimmick after gimmick and find ways to troll back on here just to annoy me. Am really that deep in your head. Lol? Don't hate "bro". I'm in a position where I don't have to kill myself at my business anymore. Except for weekends and me having a few days off.

That's the point. I personally like the look of it with the big door in the back. Has a nice industrial feel. Many gyms have goofy decor anyways. This looks more modern. Keep the white walls and color of the floor!

coach, i understand you have your own concept of gym ambience..However, it wouldn't hurt to put up some graphics/pics on the walls etc...Furthermore, the all-white choice of colour has a coldness to it....investigate the use of 'warm colours'....believe it or not, this will help increase patronage.
not hating bro, just expressing an opinion....and your boy definitely needs a lot more balancing out.

I actually agree with that. It's getting painted in the same colors of my logo in mid-Jan

good luck with your venture...at least you are driven and have some sort of vision. hope it all works out for you. I imagine it has been quite a financial investment/risk.

You ever mistimed a boxjump on those platforms? I'm still missing shin skin, lol.

Your boy is lacking depth, thickness and muscle maturity...calfs and quads are non existant....he appears narrow, pencil thin forearms, 13'' biceps (just guessing)...the t shirt appears to be hiding love handles and he has zero in the lats department. Apart from that, needs just a bit of 'balancing out'.....Oh, forget to mention, your boy needs to work on the pencil neck and elongated cone head.

Homo, he's Cheick Kongo, he doesn't need any of that. Love handles? LOL, what a simpleton you are.
The only thing he needs is to balance his striking-skills and work on his wrestling.

I agree with you in spirit but the logic of your argument is skewed.
None of us have Arnold's genetics or iron will drive to train.
That is why Arnold was Arnold regardless of equipment.
But I also agree that no amount of high tech gimmick machines can replace training intensity in the gym.
Thinking a trainer with big bouncey ball and clip board is going to transform your body is the real delusion.
-
Whether people want to believe it or not, there are smaller gyms similar to mine popping up everywhere. It's turning out to be a better business model than the traditional commercial gyms.
-
99% of gyms needs less machines and more dumbbells and benches.
Go into any gym during peak time and there will still be some machines collecting dust (think Vince's bicep machine) but everyone will be fighting over the 30-60lbs dumbbells.

used gym equipment in Calgary is selling for about ten cents on the dollar right now. i just bought alot of new stuff last year, but i coulda got some smoking deals now if i hadn't.
it really depends on how many gyms in your area are shutting down. lately it seems like a lot are. and the equipment takes a ton of room to store and is a pain to move, so it's being blown out.

Since we didn't resort to using investors, business loans or credit cards I have learned to be more resourceful with our funds, re-investing about 10% back in for equipment. I needed another squat rack and was going to go through Elitefts or Ray Crowthers but if we ordered, we would be looking at almost $4k for the rack, tax and delivery. One my neighbors has the welding and fabrication shop a few doors down from my gym. He's building almost the same rack with band attachments, monkey bar and storage for $1500.00. After he finishes this, he building a replica. Since we don't have machines (except a pulldown and seated row) equipping the gym is easy with equipment more effective than machines. But then again, I never had the intention of this being a bodybuilding-type gym.
