John Knowlton Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) My gym at work John's Hardcore gym is moving to a new location. After 20 years the powers to be want me to move my gym. The powers are my employer. I've been pretty lucky they've let me kept my equipment here and work out before and after work. So I really can't complain. But my workouts will be a little different between now and when I find the new spot. I still have my home gym.

Blacksmith513 Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Thats an AWESOME setup. But it sucks you have to move. Your work must really like you though if they let you keep all that set up in there for all these years. You'll find another spot though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Knowlton Posted November 19, 2022 Author Share Posted November 19, 2022 YEP. So I heard that there's a committee that comes around and inspects Work spaces for unauthorized equipment. Somehow they found out about my gym. At least I got a heads up and I can move it. I'm gonna wait a little while and then put it all back ,the heck with them. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to move my gym from my parents attic to our work garage below my apartment. .. But i'm dreading it. I've spent about 9-11 years up there, I don't remember exactly... But 3-4 days a week. I hardly have missed many days unless planned. So many memories, hot summers, freezing winters. Its like an end of an era.. But also a new beginning. Also, I have to be careful of dropping weights in the attic... My dad framed our house well but I could do some damage to the ceiling below.. I sent a kettlebell through a wall once in a bedroom. Not bad, thats the worst damage after all these years of working out. So i really need to move it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a nice place to work based of the pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
