Like oldtimer1 and funk51, I do all my lifting in my home gym. It's a garage, right off of my walkout baasement, which is finished with my home office and living room.
Most posters here live in their parents basement...

Great basement Oldtimer - would love to post from there 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....
such places lend themselves to quiet contemplationit's good if you have access to onethen you can throw some weights around while you're down there
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.
