Getting my home gym back together once again in a different format than before. Before I moved to where I am today I had a full gym with pro leg press and curl plus 800 lbs of weights with multiple curl bars, straight bars, pull down, chin up bar graduated bench press\/squat rack and an elliptical machine for cardio when I decided not to run one of my street courses or it was late at night. 15 plus years after moving where I am currently I have more square footage but it wasn\u2019t configured for use of that equipment. I ended up selling most of that and donated the leg machines to my old high school. I then started going to the local gym.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only thing I saved from that time was a Roman chair I use for abs and back. What I have now is replaced the weights with PowerBlock adjustable dumbbells \ud83d\udcaa picked up a treadmill to use with my Roman chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I went treadmill because I wanted to emulate my running during these Covid-19 days and beyond even when schedule doesn\u2019t allow me to get in an outside run \ud83c\udfc3\u200d\u2642\ufe0f. The adjustable dumbbells will not take up much room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After much research and shopping around I went with the Sole F85 treadmill with a 4.0 motor that will handle current weight future pace and growth since I intend to get in shape for not just finishing 5k and 10k runs but being competitive again in the front pack again with my new running style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking it slow but pushing on the treadmill on pace as much as possible as necessary. The treadmill also saves me from myself. I tend to get really pumped running when I start feeling improvement and on road courses or tracks I have done too much too early and injured myself in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The weights with high reps will add to my flexibility of my joints and muscles and give overall core strength and stamina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have had the Sole F85 treadmill for a few weeks and just got the Powerblock dumbbells today. I will get the bench tomorrow then look for other accessories like chin up bar and some leg accessories though I think I can get creative with the dumbbells for legs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right now everything is in the den but will get rid of things and move stuff around and try to use one of my rooms. With all the stuff I have it\u2019s a daunting task to make room but it will get done!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
