Always loved the channel! I agree a home gym is one of the best investments you can make for yourself. It also doesnt have to be expensive if you are willing to put in some elbow grease, used commercial equipment can be found for pennies on the dollar on the second hand market.
Jeremy, I want you to know this. Thank you for not being pushy like most TH-camrs today. You post only when there is something new and your episodes are well prepared. I see you as someone with whom I could drink whiskey and smoke cigars anytime. Cheers man!
Joined Planet Fitness 6 years ago, and I've moved from machine only workouts, to free weights only workouts. I've also basically doubled my ability to move metal since I started using dumb bells. If all you can afford is a basic membership at a basic gym, go for it. it's better than nothing!
I moved to planet fitness myself, the functional fitness area works best for me. I had the opposite problem than Jeremy, and that’s keeping my gym warm enough in our January winters.
That's one hell of a hone gym, my friend. No notes. That Rogue Echo bike is just a modernized version of the old fan bikes. A ridiculously efficient cardio machine. I love when old concepts prove to be the best. I remember doing a seminar at Athlete's Performance in Arizona, and there were a line of those machines against one wall. You know when the pros use them, it's worth owning.
Traveling to the gym is definitely my biggest hurdle. If I ever get a place with a garage or spare room I will definitely be building a home gym and incorporating a lot of your ideas! Can’t wait for the return of regular uploads! 🏴 😘
Love your gym. I wish I could have a gym that nice. Unfortunately here in AZ my garage easily get to 130+ during the summer. From April-November it's an oven in my garage. I have a small simple gym in my room. If you want to learn what hot is come to AZ. I'll show you. Keep up the hard work. It's cooler outside then in my garage.
@@THORFXMX a home gym can be many things. If it fixes your needs. I'll agree if it's just a couple dumbbells it's not a gym. A gym should match what you are training for.
Since you have the lat/low row already, the smarter thing to do would be to upgrade to the selectorized stack add on for it, and add 2 selectorized athena functional cable columns. Would be much easier to install and saves you the trouble of trying to sell your plate loaded lat pulldown/low row
I like that idea, but that may end up being more expensive. Plus I really like that with the ares 2.0 with the 2 pulley system in the high and low pulley you can do unilateral work. Also not sure the Athena would work with my shelf unit. I was looking at in the other day and those side stacks may not work well with the side add on shelves. So I’ll probably stick with the ares 2.0, but it’s a good thought. 😎👍🏻
I've been anticipating this one. Great job on it, I built mine in a part of my basement and it's been great. My own music, my equipment, and it's super convenient. Cheers Jeremy!
Really great review and awesome garage gym! I had to insulate my garage doors, it has made a huge difference in keeping the heat out especially in the hot Florida summer days.
Dang, somehow missed the notification for this upload. Sweet setup Jeremy. I love Wall Control. I use that and French cleat in the shop for just about all of my tools on the wall.
Finally you made another new workout video with new information. This video very helpful bro!!!!!!!! 😎 I took a break from my contents cause I’m working on my CDLs And Trying To Get A House. Ima Make Sure I Build A Home Gym As Well!!!!!
Great review, not ideal but a suggestion on a space saving idea is that the lever arms you have on the Rep rack have an I Loop at the end so when the arms are down you can loop a dip belt through the I loop and do modified belt squat. I have one stall in a three car garage for my gym so I have had to get creative!
I guess Jeremy did remember he has a TH-cam channel lol. Gym looks awesome and I agree those max grip/power grip attachments for cables are great. Hopefully we won’t have to wait 3 more months for the next one!!!
Just some feedback regarding your rack comments. You can get a weight stack version of the lat pulldown attachment from rep, also the Athena would work with your existing setup. Lastly, the Ares 1.0 is a steal right now... and there are mods to raise the low row cable up farther off the ground. Cheers
Awesome tour. I’d definitely love to see a review on that hack squat if you get around to making one. Also, Rogue Rhino looks like a beast but if I ever get to add a belt squat to my own home gym I think I’ll go with the SquatMax MD. Best vertical cable path… or so I’ve been told.
I love how you keep going through the same hobbies as me lmfao. Finished my home gym this year. Had hundreds of bottles of bourbon during covid and still have more than I'll ever drink. Went through a huge espresso/coffee face. Love cigars but haven't gone deep on them yet.
Great setup! The only thing i can afford in this video is the internet connection in order to watch this. I can't wait for your next upload in 7 months!
Nice setup, we did the REP 5000 as well but did the athena front side cables and lat/low row all three in weight stack. Love the versatility and also wasn't a fan of having top tie the two cables together for lats and rows. Maybe they fixed that on the 2.0 Ares. I also installed a 12,000 btu mini split in the garage, I couldn't take the heat or cold lol.
Niiiice!!! I can’t wait to get a stack system. So much more convenient. The mini split is going to happen for us also. After this summer I will be getting one before the hot weather hits next year.
I'd recommend just adding rep athena dual stacks instead of an ares 2... athena is much easier to install and combined with your lat pulldown it's probably better than ares 2.0, longer cable travel, etc.
OMG, I about lost my S#@& when I saw the notification that my brother from another mother had dropped a new video. lol 😂. Guess I won’t be able to give you that much crap during the live this week about how long it’s been but let’s see if you can really pull off the hat trick and get us some awesome B Roll as well. lol. 😂 Love you bro. Glad to see you back.
Haha, hate to be there bearer of bad news but we might be canceling the live again this week. 😬 Had some health issues with my mom I’ve been dealing with. She is fine, but it’s made it nearly impossible to make the lives the last couple weeks. All should be good by next week for sure though. 😎👍🏻
@@JeremySiers sorry to hear that but glad everything’s ok. Usually catch the lives the day after as I’m 5 hours ahead unless I catch a break on nightshift 😉
Note I'm making this comment before I watch the video I get home gym, home workout. I can't do it. Never have been. Now, get up at 5:45 M-F and go to the gym, or do yoga, no problem. Happy to do it. Alarm goes off, do your business, throw clothes on, grab water bottle, car keys, and out the door in 10 minutes. Something about the peer pressure of being around other people to hold yourself accountable, for me, makes the difference. Also, I've worked from home for 20 years, so getting the hell out of the house is a good thing. Your mileage may very.
Yeah I get that. I worked out in gyms for years. They definitely have some good point. I still prefer the convenience of a home gym though. To each their own, as long as you’re still bangin and clangin that iron. 😎👍🏻
The one thing I am missing is the Echo Bike, really want one of those to add. Definitely want to know more about the GHD alternative you are getting, I want to add one of those but the size I am not fond of so anything that does more and takes up less space would be great, I have a huge basement but am only using like half of it for the gym.
For someone with extremely limited space, what is the one piece of equipment that would provide the most return? For context i'm massively out of shape and looking to improve. I have a couple dumbells and a kettle bell. What else?
First things first, loveing the videos man you got me inspired and motivated to start getting back into edc and getting healthy again.would love to buy a man card for me and my brother's but it's a little to rich for my blood do you have any outher recommendations. for challenge cards like your thanks so much you helped a lot with these kinds of videos. Keep them coming
Damn brother, I was afraid you got blowed away from one of those hurricanes. I’m about to add a weight bench, barbell and dumbbells to my office, Whiskey/cigar lounge/youtube studio myself. Just something simple…but we all know how when ya start off simple it gets complicated real quick.
As a 41yr Old man who is generally inept at gym workouts, what do you recommend for me learn how to workout on my own. I was in the army for 10 years and they made is super difficult to be able to use the on post gyms and I didn't make enough money to be able to afford off post gyms. Any tips and tricks? Like workouts for dummy's?
Bruh. That's a 40k garage gym setup. Your pr5000 in clearcoat costs over 5k. Down the line you made good decisions (like the echo bike)... I'm snagging a pr500k in clearcoat (6 piece, same dimensions) this black friday... just installed the stall mats and painted over summer break (I'm a professor).
It’s an interesting argument for sure. My counter to this is that for about $75/month I belong to a club that has all the weights, cardio machines, express bikes, boxing area, cross fit, etc. Also has a gymnasium, tennis and pickle courts, etc. I don’t have to clean or maintain anything, and they have way more than I could fit even if I wanted to. Some things are just better to rent….
Seeing room after room of the Siers household makes me envious. Great job on the setup! Keep em coming, we missed you!
We missed you dearly Jeremy. Good to see you back!

Good to see you back!! Missed the uploads. Can’t wait for another truck/errands video!!!
We will be picking that back up soon. Probably sept or October 😎👍🏻
Rarely travel to the gym myself, but I can make it across the hallway with no problem. Love my home gym! 💪🏼

@@THORFXMX nice do you have a garage gym?
@@danderson6290 yes, a cheap weider
Some free weights. Probably shouldn’t call it a gym

Wow what great timing brother, I’m about to pick up a new power rack this week and this video definitely gave me some more ideas.
Nice to see you again, missed ya! Great looking garage, love the style !
Really great review and awesome garage gym! I had to insulate my garage doors, it has made a huge difference in keeping the heat out especially in the hot Florida summer days.
Good to see you back brother! Been missing your content!

Hey Jeremy! You're back! Great to see you again!!
Keep doing these gym videos! Love em!!
Nice Space. Nice equipment
You forgot to mention the one benefit to commercial gyms, that T&A motivation! LOL!
Very underrated
Awesome gym and video. Definitely gave me some great ideas for my own home gym.
its been awhile bro! great, informative vid as always! Patina PATINA!
Badass home gym build. A lot of great equipment.
Can’t wait to check out the Ares 2.0. You guys killed it with that one!
@@JeremySiersthat would be my dream. We wasn’t able to afford a house with a garage. Do you do social media full time to make your living?
Finally you made another new workout video with new information. This video very helpful bro!!!!!!!!
😎 I took a break from my contents cause I’m working on my CDLs And Trying To Get A House. Ima Make Sure I Build A Home Gym As Well!!!!!

Totally going to save this video for future reference whenever i get my future house
Looking great! Wonderful humor

No crap, you’re in Florida. Me too and it’s crazy hot but happy the hurricanes have stayed away.
Garage gym goals right there. Drop the workout routine!
The garage gym looks awesome.
Great to see you back
Definitely do a full review on the hack/leg press please!!
I was going to suggest Freak Athlete Nordic Mini, the you showed the super wam damie version. I love my Nordic Mini.
Awesome tour. I’d definitely love to see a review on that hack squat if you get around to making one. Also, Rogue Rhino looks like a beast but if I ever get to add a belt squat to my own home gym I think I’ll go with the SquatMax MD. Best vertical cable path… or so I’ve been told.
Sitting here with a RoMa CroMagnon Craft Knuckle Dragger with my feet up high getting ready to press play.. Keep em coming Siers😉🇳🇴
😎👊🏻
Thanks for the content.
Nice set up.... looks like I'm not the only one who's been watching Coop!
Love that guy.
Very nice setup 👌🏽
Love to see ya jeremy
TH-cam failed to notify me about this. 😡 Glad you are back, Brother.
Keep the fixed dumbbells and get the 50-100 set. You won’t ever regret it
I love how you keep going through the same hobbies as me lmfao. Finished my home gym this year. Had hundreds of bottles of bourbon during covid and still have more than I'll ever drink. Went through a huge espresso/coffee face. Love cigars but haven't gone deep on them yet.
If you get into ultra high end ultra light fishing next I'm going to get suspicious
Thank you for inspiring me to make videos!
Great setup! The only thing i can afford in this video is the internet connection in order to watch this. I can't wait for your next upload in 7 months!
Use home gym and commercial. Nothing beats the relationships built in smaller local commercial gyms

I was getting Jeremy withdrawals. Nice to see you back cheers brother. BTW Bold Fortune is killer. I did a review on my newish TH-cam channel. LOL
Love from St. Augustine. Dude it’s been hot as fuck this year. Room looks great
Nothing better than garage gyms
hands down most expensive thing in that garage is the snap-on stool
Adding the Athena is a better option than the Ares. I'd look into it.
Great video sir! Would love to see a review on that leg press/hack squat machine.
😎👍🏻
Just subbed to this channel! Good stuff! 👍🏽🫡🇺🇸

You totally had me till the ag1. I came back at power rack
Where i’m at stall mats are hard to find and stupid expensive too. Have to pay for them in installmats.

Welcome back brother, this better mean we're getting more regular content again .....
Would love to know what camera / lenses you use. Quality is superb son 💪
How much do you think you got in that gym if you don’t mind me asking? It’s trying to get an idea on what this looks like because it’s perfect.

Is REP actually 3x3? I believe their racks are manufactured overseas.
Funny!
Cool video!
Have you and big Al ever thought about sharing some workout videos or training plans?
🤔
like the gym
As a Physical Therapist, I will say that low p.ulleys are Key to strengthen your hips.
The RepIns! Shout out to Coop!
Don't want to bring up studies but they do show that public gym dumbbells especially have more germs on them than a toilet seat. No joke
Looks great, where do you park your cars?
Do you still use the garage for your car or is there no chance that it fits anymore?
