    OMFG, I stepped onto the platform with just socks after my warm up sets. Lets just say lucky I'd already stretched my hip flexors....was like Ice Skating.

    Hey mate, did you help with the purchase/install? Is that including the crossfit section? There's 600kg+ of calibrated Ivanko plates behind me in the picture.

    Not completely sure about the reason for belts over hard savers. Got a look at the nearly finished setup yesterday, very impressed. We attempted to squat but the timber floors underneath the racks were too slippery. Does anyone know if the floors have to be conditioned, roughed up, or just...

    Well, can't believe it, but they've done it. Everything ordered, here's the setup in 3D. And have to say, I'm a little bit excited about they bench's I convinced them to order :)

    Bench 200kg+

    Thats not too far away, triples at 180 will get you close to 1 @ 200. My youngest brother just hit 200 in a slingshot last week. Should have him hitting it raw in 6 - 12 months.

    How long did it take you to get to 1.5xBW squat and 2xBW deadlift?

    The 1.5x bodyweight squat was probably in the first few months, 2x deadlift was a bit longer though due to injury, prob 2 years...2x bw bench, 3 years ;). Hadn't really done any type of training since I was about 21. Although I've always worked very manual handling intensive jobs.

    GHR Substitute Ideas?

    I can go to 8 before I need someone standing on the back. It's well balanced but I can't say that for different models.

    GHR Substitute Ideas?

    I was in the same situation as you. No GHR at the gym, wanting to actually be able to do at least 1 lol. What I started doing is using the back extension like the one in the picture, sliding the hip pads as low as they go, start by placing 5 x 20kg plates underneath the back to get the tilt...
