Workout Room Done! Phew...

Last week I brought home my Wal-mart squat rack and to my DH's dismay found out quickly how much space it was going to take up in our family room. All of my workout "stuff" was already crowding out our family room and this was the last straw. DH "kindly" suggested I move my stuff to the basement. That was easier said than done since our basement was a disaster and had storage stacked from floor to ceiling. I've basically been working non-stop since last Wed. on this little project and with the addition of my Treadmill today (I promised DH that is my LAST piece of exercise equipment for a long time), I'm finally DONE!!! I had to share with you guys because I knew you would understand my excitement at having my own space. My DH just doesn't get it. He is happy to have the living room and his remote back though. ;)

WOW! thats awesome!! I'd love to have all that equipment and my own space. someday! ha.
I'd think its great too! I bet your happy to have the family room back to normal too now that you have your own space. Good work cleaning and setting it all up! :)
 
Thanks Jess! It is so nice having the family room back to normal. The only thing we really miss in there is my high step. It was the "end table" that our lamp sat on! :eek:

Hehe. My son likes to come into my w/out room and sit on my high step, eat a snack, and talk to me while I work out. Sometimes I want to scream but I love him. LOL.

I'm so jealous! Your workout room is awesome!! It's so big! I converted my spare bedroom into a work out room, but it's too small for my elliptical, and I have to share the space with my DH who keeps his guns-n-stuff in there. Yes, I have been tempted to shoot the TV, especially during cardio workouts :p :7
 
Wow, that's great Liann. I keep dreaming of the day when everyone I'm not married to moves out of the house and I can find some special me space too.
 
Hey Carole - you know those plastic storage bins with the red lids for Christmas stuff? That is our end table now! Talk about priorities! New treadmill, no end tables!
 
Hey guys, one thing I learned last night about puzzle mats - DO NOT vacuum them with the rollers going on your vacuum! My DH neglected to tell me that the rollers on our vacuum were broken and do not turn off. I had them turned off, but they were still on and totally tore up 2 of my puzzle mat squares. Luckily, I had extras, but I'm still ticked that I tore 2 up. From now on, I will just spot clean with my little dirt devil. >:l Ok, public service announcement is over. ;)
 
It looks great, Liann!!! :D You're lucky to have an insulated basement. Ours is NOT and it can get a bit chilly in the winter, and warm in the summer. Enjoy that new treadmill! You might go down there someday and find the snakes all working out. Hmmmm... I wonder how snakes could lift weights with no arms... ;)
 
Wow, that looks GREAT, Liann! Thanks for sharing the pictures with us & congratulations on your new workout space!!!
 
It looks great! All your hard work moving stuff around has really paid off. You are going to love having your own space where everything has its place. I am so happy for you! Enjoy it. :p Oh and LOL about not buying anything else for awhile. I know exactly what you mean...
