American cords, 4' x 4' x 8'. I have a couple of metal carports that I bought as kits and set them up as firewood sheds. They're 12' wide, 20' long, and about 7' tall inside. I split into one and burn out of the other. That way I'm always burning wood that had at least one summer to dry. Each usually lasts about a year. Will have some left this year, as it hasn't been as cold. Have a smaller separate shed just for birch, which I burn in the sauna. And another shed near the firepit for "junk" wood to burn there.

We just pile it up about 6 feet high upslope from a living tree, then cover with a tarp. All the new rounds that need splitting after a year of sitting are next to the outdoor pit. All the bark that comes off goes in that fire, not that I need to stay warm when chopping!!
I dislike clothing, especially shirts. It cool to see how soon I can get down to bare BACK when it's below freezing and snow on the ground I have yet to lose my pants in the snow

Into my gym they have also a large spinning room and a gymnastics room. What I really hate when some members on the way/from there who are chatting as much as loudly, that Im be able to hear them through my headphones and above the music though.
Same thing for some women which hadn't got the next-to-near stepper or running band and chat to each other via one in between, and that's mine. The Ooo-ra! gang, lifting loudly heavy weights and drop them with gruntling noises - and let the equipment stay at their dropped places, no clean up afterwards. Im sure, every one has sometimes its rants about others ![]()

Happy that my gym doesn't seem to have a lot of these problems. Since it's smaller and a little more expensive for the area ($40/mo, not really expensive but it's in an area thats more run down) everyone in it is polite and clean. Theres a rule in the gym that you have to wipe down seats/benches after your workout, and people follow it to a tee. I never see anyone that forgets to do it. As for the loud conversation stuff you need some better ear phones man or turn the music up! Unless they are being as loud as you stated, but I can't imagine people just yelling in the gym lol.

I pay weekly converted around 18 bucks, have free isotonic drinks, solarium, sauna and for me most important: Free trainers included, hadn't to hire separately, assist you at training plans, food and low carbs…
Its more exclusively by price, not necessarily by interior or members. Sometimes I wonder how some guys could afford the fees, but ok.

The other thing that kills me are the guys wearing the capri/sweatpants. I live in S. FL, where it's hot as hell for one almost year round, so wear shorts. But man, having on pants that cut-off at mid-shin makes you look like you stole your girl's out of her drawer to wear. I also am constantly wanting to correct people (mostly older 50+) who I see doing exercises incorrectly, with bad form, or just doing stuff that there's no way it's actually working anything whatsoever.

I just got my home gym set up last night. So let's see how well the equipment I have will be keeping my gains. I already ran into some issues while working out wishing I had X equipment. My neighbor and I were talking and he has a membership with Anytime Fitness. So he's going to go to the neighboring state which hasn't shut down their gyms. But said he might want to come over and use my home gym. |

Since the spare bedroom/office is now my new gym, my biggest complaint is that there isn't anyone to laugh at, check out, talk to or give shit to (I like to pick on guys twice my size). For now, my biggest annoyance at the gym is the lack of equipment. Having some serious cable machine withdrawals. I've taken quite the shine with the one at the gym. My triceps need some love. I think I'm going to rig a rope, sheet or towel up to the chin up bar tonight then hang a kettle bell off of it so I can hit the tri's this way. Last night I had my first real parallette workout. F'n ouch, that planche business is no joke. Oddly enough I had a hard time with the L sit but could pull off the planche. ![]() |

I know that pull-overs are considered a chest/back exercise....but do some of those with your kettle bell and as you are bringing back over the top....turn it into a type of lying extension. I do all of my "skull crushers" that way. Extend back with good form, then let it lower my arms a far back as possible. It will fry your triceps!
