Singapore Home Gym Undergoes Renovation Part II: Exploring yet another new space

Trying to create the "feel" that we would like our entire room to have, we decided to explore new arrangement of furniture in our room. This also means a new space area for our home gym, a new arrangement for the fitness home gym equipment. 

We shifted all the furniture to one side of the room, leaving the other side solely for us to build our home gym.

After deciding on the new space area for our home gym, its time for the cleaning up again. It's very important to vacuum or sweep the floor clean before putting the mats on the floor. Once you place those heavy home gym equipment on the floor mats, it will be very hard to remove them to clean the floor before. 

We now have a larger space area for our home gym. A total of 2.1m by 2.7m of space area. 

This is a much larger space area as compared to our previous home gym arrangement. This will allow us more space to work out, and also allow us to get the "feel" we wanted the room to have. 

As some of you may have spotted, we changed our weight bench or gym bench as some may call it. In the next post, we will be "showing off" our new bench, from the assembly of the weight bench to getting it and using it in our home gym.

Singapore Home Gym undergoes Renovation: A look at the "First" New Home Gym

So we have now rearranged our home gym, this is just the FIRST new arrangement, new look for our home gym. So lets take a look at the First new Home Gym.

We have made more space for the home gym by removing the study table. We shifted the biggest piece of equipment, the Chin-up/Dips station into the new space/corner of the room. This leaves more space for the rest of the equipments.

We have the mats down on the ground for a good protection against the dropping of weights and scratches.
We have shifted all other equipments into the home gym which includes the weight bench, squat stands, weight tree, dumbells, barbell and weight plates.

Lets take a look at the overall First New Home Gym.

Racking the weight plates onto the weight tree.

The new space new Home Gym gave us more space to work out. 

Wait a minute, you think this is our final Home Gym layout?

Singapore Home Gym undergoes Renovation: The First New Space

After keeping away all the stuff, we are now ready with our new space!!!
A bigger space area for our home gym!!!
The removal of the study table certaintly made alot of free space for our home gym.
In addition, for the first new space, we have a little corner for our Chin up/ Dips station.

Do note that this is the FIRST new space ( Little suprirses coming up in future posts).

The following pictures will do the talking.
Lets take a look at the new space area for our home gym.

We have shifted the bed all the way to where the study table is supposed to be at. Thereby freeing up the area at the other side of the room.

We mentioned that we now have a little corner for the Chin up/Dips station.

We shifted the Chin up/Dips station into the little corner beside the big cupboard. This little corner certaintly makes it just nice to slot in the Chin up/Dips station. With this, we still have a big space area for the rest of the equipments.



And now it's time to shift in the rest of the equipments. But before doing so, do remember to lay the mats for the floor. Floor proteciton!!!

Stay tune for our future posts!!!

In the next post, we will be posting pictures of our final home gym pictures of our first round of Singapore Home Gym undergoes renovation!!!!

Singapore Home Gym undergoes Renovation: Hiding Things........

When you got too many things and too little space, what you can do is to put those things out of sight but still within the room. these storage space can come in the form of cupboards, cabinet and drawers etc. But cupboard takes up space too and there's a limited capacity to it. So what other places can you store the items?

The answer is, under the bed!!!!

See that huge amount of space under the bed?
this storage area may just be used to store air if you do not make good use of it. However, do remember that the items stored under the bed wont be easy to retrieve. Therefore, the space under the bed is good for storing items that you do not use, but cant bear to throw them away.

Of course, cleaning up whats struck under the bed before putting things in is very important.

After cleaning up its time to decide whats going in. We are storing our old weight bench, old magazines and some other stuff that we do not usually use all under the bed. Arrange them nicely, fit as many stuff as you can in there, whatever space is there, use it!!! Even if you do not use it, your bed is still taking up the same amount of space in your room.

That's how you fit everything you can under the bed.
