What other build videos do you want to see? Let us know!
building the best ice cream sundae or u finally buildin that deck
Best gym for $50,000.
How about a diy cold tub?
A gym for CrossFit
Great video! Not a build video, but I'd like to see some MacGyver tricks to do different stuff. For example, how to do belt squat without a belt squat machine, etc.
My dude Gluck out here in December in his detached garage and still going sleeveless.
Thought the same thing. Haha beast
Gotta let them biceps out
Mini splits are amazing. And garages are clearly a level above basements.
@@bengoodhart6290 I like what you did there😂😂😂
Here I am in my basement in December lifting shirtless because my basement is 70 degrees at all times
I have the 810 Fitness Reality Rack, extra cups the lat pulldown attachment,dumbell sets, titan barbells and swiss bars, benches, trap bar, and a Sole 25 elliptical. All mostly from Amazon. Some also from Walmart. All good quality and works great. Everything I need. I have lifted all my life so I'm good. Currently 72 yrs old so this all I need especially after 4 back surgeries and total hip replacement. The elliptical was the most expensive purchase.
If anybody reading this wants to expand their search to walmart's online store, you can get the everyday essentials bumpers for 1/lb if you get the 260lb set, the progear squat rack is the exact same as the fitness reality 810xlt but with jcups and is also only $209, and for the adjustable dumbells, i would suggest fuel pureformance 5-50 octagonal for $99.99 ea so get 2. that puts your total at 667 which is more than enough for the barbell and bench for the remaining pieces. also worth noting "BalanceFrom PC-1 Series 1000lb Capacity Multi-Function Adjustable Power Cage Power Rack with Optional Lat Pull-down and Cable Crossover, Power Cage with Lat Pull-down" gets you the rack and lat pull down attachment on the back for only $300 which is a steal as well
I have the CAP FM-8000F two post rack from Amazon. At one point the bottom part that connects the uprights had a weld fail. I contacted CAP and they sent me a replacement part for free. So I would say it's worth looking at for a budget rack. It comes with J cups and spotter arms. I also has verical bar storage and plate storage. It also has spots for bands if you want to do banded bench press or squat.
Great video. Thank you!
Great video idea, as usual, very well done! I'd love to see you take us through your programing (lifting) and what style you use
May be time to work more of that in. Thanks for the kind words and suggestion.
Love watching your vids just to see what else I can add to my garage gym :)
Thanks! Hope they help.
Thanks for sharing the powerblock deal gluck, I love them so far.
Glad someone took advantage of that one!
Love it. Great videos btw
Great video!
Bro this channel has really exploded, I remember when it only had a few thousand subscribers!
It's getting there!
honestly i really like those cap plates and bumpers, at the end of the day weight is weight, and the caps are thin so you can fit more on for the 500lb deadlift your definitely going to do someday
i have the fitness reality rack, and once you add on the lat pulldown addition. the whole system becomes readily stable.
Im excited I was able to get titan t3 squat stand for 199 I think the space saving and low price commitment is my best option for right now I can expand to a half or sell it and get a full cage if I can make some space. May the gains be with you.
I just picked up 4 - 45lb bumper plates for $49 each last week. Thanks for the video! I wouldn’t have looked for them without this video.
I have nothing but good things to say about this rack! I have no regrets with the Fitness reality purchase. I also have the lat pull down attachment.
Thank you
I purchased my Fitness Realty 810 a couple of years ago. I purchased mine through Walmart who also offered free delivery.
For me it's perfect, stable and I have zero complaint's. I also enjoy the fact that my new Arch Nemesis swiss bar easily fits in this rack.
Great video. Lot of fun building a budget gym. You should do a Time Machine vid and build a titan gym. I build a titan gym in 2017. Spent just under $900 and got a X3 flatfoot with 10”ext, flat bench, non adjustable monolift and 160 iron plate set
dude, you're hilarious! Loving the content!
I just started working on a home gym. I was happy to see your had the exact weights I bought. Made me feel more confident it was the right choice.
Alpha Destiny has used CAP weights his entire lifting journey
Love this!
Thank you!!
Another great video dude!
Was just trying to keep up with you but clearly I've fallen behind!
Love a Gluck video.
Nice video per normal. I think for those of us that have been into fitness for awhile we just spend more than the average person would. But for people that just do it to stay fit an don't care about the mid or high end teir, this is needed. Nice video
Often overlooked, is the lat pulldown/low row add on. They don't really cost that much but add a ton of different or improved movements.
Definitely helps with stability on this one just hard to fit it into this budget range/video.
@@GlucksGym I got the Reality Fitness 810XLT and Lat pull for about $350. I was fortunate to find the lat pull on offerup
I also have bells of steel jammer arms on the rack too
You can easily do a ghetto setup with a simple pulley system
@@AndrewFrancisFreemanon their site they say it only fits 2.3 x 2.3 racks
I'm definitely over budget and pretending I'm not. I originally started with a $500 budget, with a CAP rack and an 2.0 bar with Crumb plates from Rogue and have since purchased a Concept2 Rowerg and upgraded to a 6-post PR-4000 rack and not to mention all of the plates, bars, and accessories. I'm not quite at the point where I have a problem but the wife is starting to get skeptical I have control of myself...
This is great!
Thank you!
Love the video
Thank you!
Thank you for the entertainment
I think I’ve commented on every video that you’ve mentioned that Titan bar but it really is a great bar. With anything at that price point, and from one of the import companies, I’m sure experiences may vary but mine has been outstanding. I bought the bar back when it was even cheaper than it is now and also on one of their massive sales and think I paid somewhere around $70… only bought it because I sold off my home gym to start a new gym build and needed a bar to hold me over. Fast forward thousands of dollars in barbells and specialty bars later and I still grab that bar to bench from time to time because it’s a great bar and I like the larger 30mm shaft for pressing.
Probably wouldn’t recommend it for Olympic lifts dropping the bar from overhead, or for 500+ pound squatters. But for any average gym bro looking to start a home gym I don’t think you’ll get anything close to this for the money. Especially when they run sales on it like when I got it for the price of a pair of Rogue 10lb bumpers lol.
Saw your vid on that guys bench breaking on him. I bought this rack with the high low pulley. Didn't skimp on the bench or barbell though. My power blocks up to 90 lbs are like 70 percent of this budget also lol. Enjoy the building vids with price ranges.
I bought the titan economy bar for $100 on their black friday sale! Using it for rack pulls so I don’t destroy my $300 bar.
Great video
Great video.
I will give you credit, though - You are one of the few that removed the "Red Arrow UP" Stickers on all four 2x2 uprights - good man ;)
I have this Fitness Reality rack too and I don't need a $1,000 rack to be able to go to failure on all my body parts. I grow just as well with a $299 rack.
But I look like I train on a more expensive rack, and that's all that really matters.
Review the jacked up pro all in one functional trainer !🎉
I bought the XLT rack used looking for safety straps
W sense of humor 😂. Great video btw.
Awesome
Could you do one on "shorty" bars?
Limited space builds!!
I bought the black set of the essential bumpers from Walmart, 2 days ago. 370lbs for $369🤘🏽
My Titan spotter arm safety pins don't fit on my Titan posts they were made for hahahahaha...."that's Titan"
Lifted on cap squat stand for years
I bought THIS RACK in March 2021 . I STILL LOVE IT. " HOLE " comments are true . Titan dip attachment fits mine, and Yes4all attachments work Rogue Ohio BAR ( boneyard ) GREAT JOB as always .
Mr. Gluck, I would like to see U do a video on the power racks (Major Lutie, Elevtab, ER Kang,) from Wal Mart and Amazon. They have a plate loaded cable system built into the racks and are very affordable. No, they are not the highest quality but seem to be a Good buy for someone on a budget. I have never seen a review on them but I really believe it would be one of your most viewed videos if U made it. U won't need to buy before doing a review, just give your opinion and list the details of the racks. The best value power rack I've seen is the Signature Fitnees rack. It does not have the cable system but is 11 Gauge steel with 1 inch holes just like Rogues and REPs and it costs around $700.
Thnk for your hard work Take Care
Gluck are we ever going to get a video on the Giant open trap
Bar? You mentioned months ago In the Titan rack-able one. I’ve been looking to buy it, but haven’t seen any videos on it at all.
Yep but I had all these planned out and as a 1 man show things don't move quick 😢 also I had to wait for their new handles which I just got in.
What's the depth of your power rack, and ideal depth for home gym power rack? Kindly advise.
I don't mind buying standard plates for dumbbells. The smaller size of the weights work better with some movements. I think Olympic dumbbells look goofy and probably feel the same.
Thought I’d mention, the Everyday Essentials colored bumper plates are $50 apiece for 45 lbs right now. As Gluck said, the prices vary day to day
On Amazon that is
Camel camel camel is great for setting up price alerts
Is the rack compatible with the T2 10" rack extension?
My $900 Amazon apartment gym
1. Weight bench 139.99
2. Bowflex 840 kettlebell 149
3. Spin bike $259
4. Spinlock dumbbell 100lbs x 2 (200lbs) $349. 99
Can't wait for that sweet sweet giveaway.
Was going to get the 3100 but with work benefits I can get the 4100. As someone whose just getting back in lifting, Should I regret settling for the 3100 or overspending on the 4100?
what did you use on the wall in this video to hang accessory bars? thanks
That's my Wall Control gluck.fit/WallControl
We did a video on it awhile back but the lighting and camera wasn't as nice then 😬
No real comments on the video, but wanted to feed the algorithm anyway. Keep it up!
Haha thank you, I appreciate it
Gluck! You've totally arrived! You know have people trying to scam your viewers! You're in the big leagues now! 😂
Another great video! But I’m gunna stick with the expensive equipment as I feel it helps both my finances and my wife’s appreciation of me…. Wait…. I may have that wrong.
Can we get a Rep fitness build
They recently built a showroom/warehouse near me and I’ve been buying so much stuff from them
This dude reminds me of Toby from the office
Wow. That rack is freaking solid!
Wait until you see the full test in two weeks!
@@GlucksGym I have high expectations. Just seeing how stable it is during rings dips and pull-ups
I don't get the 35lb plate hate. I love them. I hope this means I can get them cheap!
You can, they're the least bought/sold (I believe). I don't care what people use as long as they lift but it's funnier with a few jokes.
...and now I have bumper plates. Thanks Gluck
I'm starting to think I don't actually help people save money 😂
Thank you for this video. Will I be doing 800 lbs like you, HAHAHAHAH....no. I'm a complete noob and this has given me a good foundation for what I need to get started.
"I really enjoy how much I hate my WOD nation rope"
LMAO
Quoting my jokes is literally my favorite thing people sometimes do. That's 100 % serious, it's the biggest compliment IMO 😁
@@GlucksGym I was surprised no one else had quoted it already, it was hilarious. I've thought about trying jump rope but I'm pretty sure it'd be my personal hell.
Y’all are out here ruining marriages one budget video at a time😂 solid picks that at the very least get a prospective home gym owner’s foot in the door. Great video y’all!
Pretty great content here, Gluck. Bands really finish this together.
Thank you!
Full rogue build
Sunny user here. I love my rack but be warned, because the weird home sizing, you can't get some of the newer toys your friends may have.
Benches, check. Rings, check. 7:10 - 7:15 Wynie stealing the show, check. (Extra points, scary man in the mirror, check)
I guess I hit all the important parts 😂
🥇
Any giveaways to Canada?
Supposed to do one with Bells so at least that one but others the shipping might kill us.
@@GlucksGym Maybe instead, you can give us gift cards or redemption codes at checkout? :)
I was thinking that might be a way to make that work since that's what I did with the Rep gift card giveaway
The plates I got from Everyday Essentials are 45.0 and 46.4 lbs, which is annoying.
Great options if your unsure of the home gym life. Once you know your going to love it, I say make the investment and get what’s gonna make you happy and last a lifetime.
For the algorithm
4:20 ... we just going to let this slide?? Phrasing? Anyone?
We still do phrasing? 😆
I couldn't tell you like rings. It's not like you mention them EVERY video. Thank you for the video though
Glad you're watching every video but not everyone does 😂 and if I don't mention them someone yells at me 😢
Yo
First
Wow his humor is getting better. Who knows but maybe this time next year he will be on one of those nightly comedy shows that is brought to you by Pfizer
limited home gym space!
Wtf is a brushing
I'm still trying to figure that out 😂
FACT. Copper brushings may cause hot flushes. Other side effects include nausea and possible infertility.
Check with your doctor if confused knockoffs are right for you.
You just keep on talking in one, long incredibly unbroken sentence, moving from topic to topic so that no-one has the chance to interrupt but really quite hypnotic.
Thanks... maybe? 😂
Fake weights are not as expensive and have the same claimed weight. Your just on a budget.
damn all you guys wanna be me
Look what you've started!
35s, those aren't real plates. hahaha!
I'm not exactly sure who he was arguing with but I know him and I did have a conversation about the black version versus the color coded version. I have both versions and I said the color coded version was better. He chose to inject himself as if he could change my opinion. His videos are basically his biased affiliated opinions and there's no greater evidence in this current video. Are we supposed to be blind that affiliate link bros will always favor the money? Nothing against the guy but Even he has to know that when people give their opinion about something that they actually own it is usually genuine but when people are able to monetize their opinion then they will always be skeptics. For instance the flat bench, anyone who has been paying attention knows that Best buy has the best version of a flat bench and a fantastic price when they can catch it low. It's the true grit flat bench. I got it when it was $50 but the lowest I've seen lately was $79. Affiliate link bros will not educate the public even if they knew because they can't monetize it. I really don't want to argue with anyone today because I'm constipated but I'm always here for the smoke if I have to be
I think you're responding to me but I can assure you it wasn't you this joke was about. This was a person I know personally and we debated between the two. The issue is they advertise stainless steel inserts and I can assure you these are the furthest from it. The rubber coating is thin and often not well sealed so they split fairly easily. They stink, their weight and build quality isn't great by any means and the list goes on. As for that bench and Trugrit, people can and do monetize Best Buy, they have an affiliate program which is why you see those deals so heavily publicized (depending who you're watching). I try to be honest, fair, and thorough so I hope I'm just not some affiliate bro.
@@GlucksGym I wasn't sure but last week someone with the same credentials went back and forth with me about the same bumper plates. I don't take it personal and I'm only here expressing my opinion from my experience because I am definitely an owner of these particular bumper plates. I've had these bumper plates going on two years. Of course you are more than an affiliate link bro, You're a man and a father and a husband and I'm sure much more but you would know more about your credentials. I don't think it is offensive to say you are influenced by your affiliate links, that's how it works. No one escapes the gravitational pull of ways to pay the bill. Were you writing about your experience your with these bumper plates or accessing a projection of what you believe will be the results for a home user? You have all types of gym equipment so it's really hard to believe that you have these terrible results especially since you use multiple bumper plates from different companies. I am an individual who doesn't have any other bumper plates besides the true grit bumper plates (I purchased a different brand two weeks ago for a pound.. thank you but those are brand new ) I've moved these plates to two different
Cities here in Florida and they still work like a charm and that's including my workouts. Aesthetically they may not look like they're new but if you're actually working them out then I don't think aesthetics really matter. I'm talking about superficial or minor blemishes. Perhaps people will find a better understanding from reading the reviews. Maybe the majority of the reviews from Walmart and Amazon will be more related to your projection or experience with these bumper plates and this will help people decide on the best option for themselves. As far as the bench for Best buy, my point is valid and it stands because It's a different option at a great price when it is on sale. Hmmmmm. You know what I think I understand that I'm doing it all wrong. My bad, everyone should be commenting on your video because that is partly how you pay the bills. Oops I'm sorry seriously It will not happen again.
