    Great work! Great fitness support. Coherence is higher with a support system. Make a pull-up bar and a pulley system! Must haves for a home gym! Super inexpensive as well. 🙌🏼

  • @shayndapain
    @shayndapain 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would suggest a slight taper/angle cut toward your bar rack so that if you accidentally drop the bar on the flat 2x4, instead it will roll into the gap where the bar rests.

    • @LucyCao
      @LucyCao  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s a really good idea! There was once where the bar ended up on that flat 2x4 and it gave me a heart attack lol

    Awesome! What kind of foam did you use and where did you get the vinyl?

    • @LucyCao
      @LucyCao  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The foam is from Home Depot and it’s called the 2 in. thick multi-purpose foam. It’s pretty soft but also holds its shape pretty well. We got the vinyl from Joann fabrics, but I believe you can find it at most craft stores or even amazon or eBay! Hope this helps!

    • @willybeanzzz

    Can u plz tell me that how much weight can this rack and this bench can hold.. ????

    • @LucyCao
      @LucyCao  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I personally have not tested (because I’m not that strong) how much weight it can hold, but I’ve seen weaker and more flimsy designs of both the rack and bench hold over 500 lbs. Both the rack and the bench has not shown any sign of breakage when lifting heavy.

      It’s not the most stable. Watch my most recent video on how we made it more stable (we added diagonal posts).

    Does this work for incline as well?

    • @LucyCao
      @LucyCao  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      This should work, but it’s best for incline benches to have two parts (like one part to sit on) because you might slide down otherwise 👍

  • @chenxin5664
    @chenxin5664 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    How many days did you wait for the concrete become hard enough for using?

    • @LucyCao
      @LucyCao  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      After 24 hours, the top of the concrete should be dry to touch, and you can start using it lightly. The inside took a while to cure because it’s in the bucket, and I think it took about a week to dry 100%. But I would say about 3 days is more than enough because it’s not gonna move even if it’s half dried

    Wood type??

    • @LucyCao
      @LucyCao  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We just used the most basic type from Home Depot. I believe it’s the “Prime Whitewood Stud”. But, if you are using it outdoors, you would want to use treated wood. Hope this helps!

  • @Koongjin
    @Koongjin 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What’s the measurement of the bench? Height and length??

    • @LucyCao
      @LucyCao  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      so if you plan on competing, you want the bench to be the same as a competition bench. That would be:
      Length: 1.22m or 48”
      Width: 29-32cm or 11.5”-12.5”
      Height: 42-45cm or 16.5”-17.5”
      I made this bench a little bit shorter because I don't need the end of the bench, and to have it store easier.

      That sucks. I got mine from a fitness supply store that I found on Facebook marketplace. They were about 1.7 times the weight, and they were new. I heard you can find good deals in gyms that are closing.
