Good call!

For back, leg, and shoulder days - I train with the barbell set in the garage.  It's nice - I hide from the fmaily, hibernate in there for about 2 hours.  Lift, play some bass guitar, wire my amp, play with the pedals.  I always lse track of time, I never count sets.  I just train and play music for 2 hours. 

I can't do it on leg days, as I don't have a sq rack yet :(

shit that's a VERY nice setup man, really all you would need is some heavier db's and some more barbell plates and you're set.

I put a gym in my garage.It cost me some money but it was used gear from a gym.I have a monolift,power rack,forza bench,texas squat bar,cambered squat bar,leg ext,leg curl,seated leg curl,reverse hyper,45 degree hyper,cybex leg press,deadlift platform,incline bench,utility benches,preacher curl,dumbells from 20-150,1200lbs of weights,all kinds of bars,lat machine,deadlift bar,etc.

In my opinion,unless your training at a really good gym,with really good guys, home gyms are the way to go.I could not bare the thought of training at a place where there is no chalk,no dropping weights,where they discourage people from using real weights.Back in the 80s every gym was a hardcore facility with tons of bodybuilders and powerlifters.Now they are places for middle aged women and men.Sad.
