such places lend themselves to quiet contemplation
it's good if you have access to one
then you can throw some weights around while you're down there
-
the basement is calling but reception will be poor
total silence the weights await!

I had a friend with the same weight set in his basement. Vinyl treasures. He had huge pec and would come to school and complain that his "tits hurt" when going up the stairs the day after bench pressing
He had a stack of huge amps and giant speakers so we blasted our fav's

Yes, that is a squat rack. The safety catch is set a a great depth in case I get stuck.

The best treadmill I have ever been on is my True brand. It sits broken and I think I can fix it but I have been too lazy. This Sole brand is the back up. It's okay but doesn't feel half as solid as the True.

On a sidenote,if you bought anything from Jubinville in the 70`s,it`s probably still functional. ;)

I love my basement gym. Oldtimer, yours is GREAT. I would love to have that space and those high ceilings!
Mine is kinda cramped, but it gets the job done

I live in NJ. Newark used to be half way decent. It had some old school Italian mob influence back in the day but now it's mostly a hell hole. The medical school and dental school are shining source of pride there. I do love the Iron bound district. Best restaurants on earth. Still try to get out there once a year. Use to know an Angelo Iuspa from Newark that had an incredible collection of bodybuilding books and magazines that I use to buy stuff from. Lost contact and bet he's dead from old age.

Great basement Oldtimer - would love to post from there :P
Are you a drummer or is this some kind of Ben Hur apparatus to emulate a "hortator" effect when the wife keeps getting slower during cardio....
