As the new year dawns (it's literally close to dawn as I write this... just got back from partying), most of us will make new year resolutions. I say screw those stupid resolutions. Most of the time we never get to it.
This year, like many years before I won't make resolutions. I'll just set a few targets. This Fitness Junkie Wannabe wants to:
- Setup her own home gym
- Take up a new hobby (e.g. martial arts, wall climbing, playing batu seremban....)
- Take a fitness-related course (if I can't take ACE, I wanna at least take a mini course at FIT Malaysia)
- Have a sexier body (I'm vain, sue me)

Yes, please do that..take the ACE course!
Aizan, I was thinking about doing the same as your No. 1 resolution too. I've been surveying Fitness Concept and their stuffs are really cheap, but of coz the quality wont be that good eh? A must-gym-item in my mind is the adjustable bench. I mean, look at Craig's workout! All you need is just dumbells and the bench. But 1 thing that has been bothering me is the space in my small-apartment. any suggestion as to how to arrange it? I don't have any spare rooms to convert it to gym. The only space is at the living room.......I dunno......what do you think? Where do you intend to set up ur home-gym?
Hliza: I'll try. Time's not quite the issue. It's the cash, I'm afraid.
Louie: It's fab that you've decided on a home gym. I think we've been swindled by commercial gyms long enough.
An adjustable bench won't take a lot of space. I live alone, so having one in the living room won't matter to me. I think it'll become the most used piece of furniture at home :P
All my 'home gym' stuff is at the living room: dumbbells and stability ball (and later, the bench). My pull up bar is setup at the door of my study room-cum- ironing room and my TRX is setup at the door of my guest room.
Trust me, it doesn't take up much space.
And oh...I'm shopping around for a decent adjustable bench. If I find one I'll let you know. If you find a good bargain, please let me know as well ;)
ahh...u r lucky that u stay alone. :) i've rented out the smallest room to my cuz. Maybe I'll just try to fit a really mini home gym somewhere at the living room. I've just bought 2 big mirrors to put them at the living room. Guess now can workout while looking at the mirror. Ya. I'm vain too! hahah.... hm...found 1 adjustable bench fr Fitness Concept at only rm269, but that guy said it's wood, not like cushion thingy. Believe me, I have no idea what he meants by wood-material bench. There wasn't any sample at the store that time. If cushion-type bench, it'll cost about rm1k++. Can do decline, incline and horizontal. RM1k++ ... gotta save up lah. Do let me know if you find any cheap-but-quality bench ya? tx for the ideas! guess home-gym really won't take up much space, looking at how you do it :)
