You need a new gym. We have up to 150 lb. D-balls.

Re: New ropes
Sadly, that’s gonna be the solution.
Re: New ropes
This is our garage setup. 3/4” rubber flooring so you don’t have to worry about dropping the bar. We’ve got about 300 lbs. of bumper plates, so we can do just about anything. My wife uses it a lot. She can probably strict press more than most of the men here.![Image](http://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji23.png)

Re: New ropes
While I like and am relatively proficient at Oly lifting, during the week, I'm mostly traditional bench/squat/deadlift on a power rack in the garage. Same rack allows me to do pullups, bent-over rows, overhead press, etc..., so I basically don't need to go to the gym anymore.

Great setup!! If I didn’t enjoy the social aspect and motivation of a CrossFit gym so much I’d put together what I need in my garage.CGSshorty wrote: ↑Thu Jan 04, 2018 12:08 pmThis is our garage setup. 3/4” rubber flooring so you don’t have to worry about dropping the bar.

Re: New ropes
i love the set up. Best part: if you shit your pants doing true vertical squats, the washer/dryer is right there. Well thought-out.CGSshorty wrote: ↑Thu Jan 04, 2018 12:08 pmThis is our garage setup. 3/4” rubber flooring so you don’t have to worry about dropping the bar.

Re: New ropes
I put my stuff in the condo's common gym. Half rack, rubber plates to 450lbs. Oly bars n a hex bar. Ghd n a stall bar.
Made some platforms too.
As well as a bunch of gymnastics stuff.![Image](//uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180107/ee0a8641c2ebfe16168b0819456e8635.jpg)
