Good stuff myman.
I have been back for the last 2 weeks after just over a month off because of my chest infection was a nightmare.

good for you! :thumbsup: how did it go?.. exhausted??
Few years ago I joined the gym... There was a special offer/discount to join! at the back of the membership card was 10% off MacDonalds!! so guess where I was most of my time?? never went to the gym since!
warm up, then cardio,then stretch, then lifting, then some resistance then some bag work, then sauna and shower then out
It's just a little home setup but i'm lucky enough to have everything I need-
Squat rack, power cage, olympic bar and weights, dip station, incline bench, seated row bench, 40k dumbells a sturdy cross trainer and some posing mirrors!!!
Only way I found motivation was to make it as easy as possible, remove any excuses!!!

Like I say, my motivations ok now-
I work really random shifts so always struggled with routines and going to a gym
I now have a 3-4 day split and I basically roll out of bed into the gym-
Saves so much time, I love it!
Just gotta get my sky routed down there and i'll never leave!

Trouble for me is I'm the other way round - I only get motivated if I know I'm going TO a gym.
I occassionally do biceps/abs/stretching at home, but just love the buzz of a busy gym.
Also, as the weights on the bench get a bit dangerous, then I NEED to be around training partners/spotters anyway for safety.
Fair play to you have a setup including Olympic bars etc at HOME though
Must've cost thousands for gear like that?

Must've cost thousands for gear like that? I managed to do it for a lot less than you'd think actually, I know what you're sayin about a spotter, that's why I insisted on the power rack, I know it's not quite the same as a spotter but it does mean I can go to failure

How far apart (vertically) are the pegs/traps/catches or whatever you wanna call them?
Even better, have you got any pictures of the gear?
No disrespek mate but I can't be chuffed with taking some shots at the moment, my arms feel like lead from using it!
I do keep meaning to though so watch this space!
Just popped down and measured, the distance between pins is 40mm if that's what you mean? Not sure?
