Exclusive Elk Hunting Discounts Here. I used to own a CrossFit gym. I still belong to that gym, but I reeled back on driving there everyday and now make it in only x a week. The rest of the training days are spent at home inside my garage gym. I don't waste 20 minutes driving to the gym or the 20 minutes driving home. I save 40 minutes and I can knock out a training session in that time frame and jump right back into my busy day being a husband, father and hustler.
If you have a buddy or neighbor that's willing to be a consistent training partner than right on. Otherwise, I do feel the community, coaching and camaraderie that happens inside the 4 walls of a CrossFit makes it very valuable. Working out alone can lead to burnout or the same lousy workouts without pushing yourself, so just know that it takes some special barbarity to stay on top of it. You do not need to spend a fortune to get started.
You do need some dedicated space and start working from the ground up. I think stall mats are the best bet to protect your concrete from weights and give you a surface to work with.

I started here, then eventually invested in a rack or rig that could support both squats and pull-ups in the same space. Next would be sandbags - they are super handy for many types of workouts.
Go ahead and make your own. Here's how:. Fill a contractor bag with sand or pea gravel, which is less likely to leak. Bag it twice more, leaving some room for the contents to move. Next is my personal bias as a bowhunter, healthy shoulders rank supreme in my little world of archery.
I would encourage anyone not wanting to go under the knife for shoulder surgery to create a dedicated space for bands and shoulder stability. I like the simplicity of CrossOver Symmetry. When we used to own a gym, we paid so much in freight fees that it would make you sick.
