I have $300 to splurge on expanding my home gym and I'm tied between a GHR (basic but can also do hypers on it) or bigger sets of kettlebells 24kg, 28kgs, 32kgs (to do UDL's at home, I have the strap that holds them together and tthe boxes for height)
Really undecided......... I am set for plates now.

GHR for sure. Man I am jelly want one so bad.

I'm leaning towards GHR..... Cyberfit $445, going to play on it tomorrow, might have to have extra holes drilled in for being a Shorty, Trent had to get the PTC ghr customised to suit me.
Just chatted with another coach, he said GHR too......

Trojan fitness Joondalup, it's NOT a commercial rack by any stretch, but it was cheap, rated to 370kg, came with dip handles and since Im fifo it will only be used 3 or 4 times a month, it suited me perfectly!! Best of all, I picked it up on the day!!!

Certainly handled the weighted dip ok!

I bought and put together my Glute Hamstring Developer for my home gym, purchased from cyberfit for a steal, super easy to assemble and every part fit perfect, no mucking around! Did a little play on it this afternoon, seems very sturdy. Will do a review after Nationals when I'm back in the full swing of training.

I'm very jelly. Let me know how it stacks up compared to a force one.

nice selection of hammers

Big Mick, GHR is a bit different movement (note the pad is rounderer)

Did you manage to get it on a decent buy?

Definately Glute ham developer. However you can do hyper extentions with an adjustment of the foot bars. Haven't tried this.

@Brick, will definately let you know.

@Goo, nice little dungeon!

Thanks OC, was about to google a pic.

Yes, I put an offer forward through his ebay site and he accepted. He has just started in Powerlifting and now sourcing new equipment for his new hobby! So keeping an eye on his shop!

Ooh, want ghr too. @deep, I'm interested in a review of the cyberfit. That seems like a great price you got it for, most seem to be >$600. Can you do reverse hypers, too?

@kfg - nice mate. Any plans to expand? Weight tree perhaps?

Yes you can. You can also use a powerband around the feet of the machine to increase the tension.

definitely getting one now I have wanted a reverse hyper for a while now.

I like machines that serve alot of purpose, I was originally looking to get a hyperextension bench..... what was I thinking!
I'll throw my husband on over the weekend to see how it handles a 100kg man! Lol

Thanks for the info.

just sorting out my gym while out of contention.

@Goo, nice little dungeon!

Thank you kind mam.

@kfg - nice mate. Any plans to expand? Weight tree perhaps?

Thank you kind sir. Um, probably getting a incline/decline bench with homo leg curl etc to get more bang for my buck... Havn't thought about a weight tree though, dont really mind it how it is to be honest.

Forgot to add i've got some 'dope' speakers which l can hook my ipod up to.

Another good set up there Kay, lovin' the boxing bag! Definately ideal

 

[wingman]

Is there any advantage to having the bench press as opposed to a standalone bench that you push inside your rack when benching?
