Why did you start your own home gym?
I’ve had a small basement home gym for years. When I switched services I had the opportunity to make a real gym in a garage- it’s always been a dream to workout while getting fresh air. I’m a first responder and am away from my pup, Farley for 12 hours on days I work. I didn’t want to lose more hours with her being at a gym. Now I can workout and play fetch at the same time.
What are your current fitness goals?
Just to keep have fun right now and become stronger. It’s a good mental health outlet.
What program are you following?
Currently using the Caliber App to track a 5-day split. Nothing fancy but it’s fun, effective and allows me to continue to hike with my pup and play pickup hockey with my co-workers.
What BoS equipment do you own?
The Hydra Power Rack, the Lat Pulldown Low Row Machine, a barbell and Olympic weight plates.
What's next on your wish list?
I’d love another machine but I also don’t like a cluttered space, so likely an attachment for my rack… I hear a Smith Machine attachment maybe in the works.
