I currently own a treadmill and free weights. I would like to know what is on your gym equipment wishlist, and why. It can be a bench, DVD, resistance bands, whatever. and....go! lol

    I wish I had my own weight cage in my house with an olympic bar, and those rubber weights and mats that let you drop your weights on the ground. Oh and a nice big area to do my weird plyo training sessions. Heck while I'm wishing, I want a whole volleyball court with a wood sport court, and a lap pool, ice pool, and hot tub in the back. :p

    I often fill my cart with about $5k worth of stuff from Rogue. Haven't quite pulled the trigger yet...

    My house doesn't have a garage. and I'd have to empty half of my home office to make room for a cage and it'd still be a tight fit at best.
    I was recently considering building a shed with a concrete foundation to put a cage in. I'd use a propane heater for warmth and I have extension cords and a window unit for lighting and cooling. Once I realized that I'd spend $3-4K easily BEFORE buying the cage, I said "F-that"! Instead I'm using dumbbells and small barbell at home and machines at work gym to perfect form until I'm ready to use "He-Man" section of a real gym.

    Does a steam shower for after workouts count? I don't really like having workout gear since I don't have a lot of space, but having a steam shower or one of those amazing tub covers (they are impossible to find in America!) that keeps your bath water super warm. Feels so good on those sore muscles!

    I want a leg press and hack squat machine, a lat pulldown, and a foam roller (probably rumble roller or similar)

    Actually yeah I would really like a power cage to, would make it easier to push to the limits on squats without being worried about killing myself lol

    I just saw a Go Fit gravity bar and really had to talk myself out of it.

    Oh yes, Rogue is an evil place :devil: where I have admittedly spent a lot of $$$. Would love to add a set of their competition bumpers to my gym, but can't justify spending the $.

    I just found out elite fts is an hour from my house. Going to visit them this weekend and get a safety squat bar.

    I pulled the trigger on my first piece of equipment, a Concept2 rowing machine. If I had a bench and a squat rack with 300lbs worth of weights, I'd be good to go for years.
