Thx buddy
Whats that material/item that uses rack attachment protection again?
Thank you good sir.
This man could fix the entire weight plate shortage by selling half of his equipment
Lol
He has a bad case of GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome). It afflicts all interests and hobbies.
@@krelbar golfers and fisherman agree
Well he said it. "Attachments that were never used but looks pretty" haha
🤦♂️🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆🤣
The cuts between hacks have a strong "Tool Time" vibe from Home Improvement, and I for one wish to see more of this.
Now that I read this, that's absolutely true
Yes! Literally thought this too when I was watching this! Love it.
Coop has a strong tool man vibe lol
🤣🤣🤣
YES!! exactly what i was thginking lol
That garage door opener is the best thing I've ever seen.
yeah and its super cheap + simple...
Seriously, how did I not know about this when I decided how to orient my rack? 🤦♂️
Only downside I can see is most homes don't have a plug on the sides and hidden wiring for the sensors/wall control. You'd need to run an extension cord and end result can look a bit messy
Could just get roller doors.
I had one at my last house. Only downfall is if you live in a colder climate and have a wider door. It allows your door to contract toward the heat causing a gap in the center bertween the door and door seal. Those metal channels and hugr seals wont stop it from doing that either.
3:29 in and I can already tell this video is done in the style of the TV show Home Improvement. Good job!
Glad you noticed it. One of my favorites.
These types of videos are probably your best coop. They inspire to think out of the box to get the most out of our gym. Appreciate it coop. Plus your editing skills are making gains💪
Bro.. who ever is doing your editing is killing it!
Big 'Tool Time' vibe on those cuts. Give whoever did that a raise.
Word!
The digitized blur had me rolling!!!!
Tennis ball and fleet tape were my favorites
Thought I was coming for the gym reviews... turns out I’m here for Coop’s tennis ball opening / juggling skills! 😂🏆
I am glad you mentioned the garage door! I have had a jackshaft garage door opener since probably 2012, both in my old home, and my new home. They are the ideal item to open up the ceiling area of a garage if you want to use the space for anything other than storing a car. They are also a lot quieter than a regular garage door opener in my experience. In terms of lighting alone they are a must have.
To follow the theme of getting things off of the floor and onto the wall, I wanted to share one of my favorite home gym hacks. I bought a closetMade belt and tie rack off of amazon for super cheap (less than $10) and I use it to hang and organize all of my bands, wrist wraps, belts, and jump ropes. Highly recommend.
Coop…. I love the hack you had in a previous video where you attached magnets to the quick release barbell collars. Such a great idea!
One thing I do (that other people probably do too) is that I got from home depot a set of multi-colored electrical tape. With that, I label the holes on my Titan T3 power rack (which I really love), that i use the most. I also label the tape with a sharpie, BUT coordinating the color with a specific exercise, makes it easy to see and therefore so quick to change the safety catches to the proper height.
In addition to the jack shaft opener, invest in having the tracks repositioned to as close to the ceiling as possible. Because of the additional vertical distance, the total door length in the horizontal position when open is also reduced, so open or closed, you can do just about anything overhead.
Thanks for leveling the audio out on the intros! Greatly improves the transition between the intro stinger/music and the main content.
Great. Now I just need to figure out how to use 1” attachments in my 5/8 rack
Simple! (goes to get drill and bits)
@@BM-si2ei but that westside spacing...
@@thomastkach7467 Westside spacing has nothing on this new open-channel spacing! Infinite height options!
@@BM-si2ei exactly. 1" spacing + 1" holes = channels. I do wonder how much weight the saw-tooth edges would hold.
@@thomastkach7467 I was literally thinking about this after making that joke...I suppose at that point the strength of the sawtooth is mostly dictated by the gauge of the steel, but even a thick gauge steel would have a non-zero amount of flex further from the channel ends. Intrigued and terrified.
The hack you use flex tape for I've been doing this for years with gorilla tape. Holds up well. Also magbak cases for all my phones. Thin rugged case that's not to expensive with a magnet built into the case so you can't even tell its any different any other case. No random magnet sticking off the back of your phone pulling your pocket inside out every time you pull it out of your pocket. Highly recommend magbak cases. Been using them for years. And the magnet is extremely strong. Comes with thin low profile magnets you can stick on the dash of your car to mount into your car super easy
Thanks for the tip! I've got some Gorilla around here and was scrolling thru comments just to see if someone has used it.
Thank you Coop for all these great ideas!!
the tennis ball tricks were incredible, ordered a pack from amazon and the landmine worked great. DB bench press felt so much better too
The tennis ball and the j hook with tape hack was gold for me. Thank you so much.
My garage door hack was taking the motor assembly down and installing an interior and exterior handle for manual use.
Does the tennis ball work if your doing bent over row? I tend to go with 60kg max, normally lifts up thought...
The tennis ball and wall storage were the ones that stood out to me my friend. Thanks for all the info and for taking the time to show us around your kick ass home gym.
Wonderful stuff. The phone magnet and the loadable barbells are my takeaway from this. Keep em coming !
These are awesome! Just got finished with a landmine station hack myself with a piece of pvc pipe and the yoke for a swivel caster! Also made a dip station and parallettes with pvc pipe. Love these simple alternatives to buying expensive equipment!
Would love to see the dip station man 😎
This has been my favorite and, most useful video, for my garage gym so far.
I can’t believe I never thought is these. Thank you!
Thanks Coop, always appreciate the help!
I’m loving the inexpensive hacks, especially the preacher curl one. Thanks and keep them coming.
Thanks Coop. Love the garage hack videos. Keep em coming.
Great stuff! I use magnet hooks to hold random crap on the rack.
I also do the wrist roller thing but I don’t put the band on a peg, I put it on a weight so eventually it lifts the weight up.
OMFG magnet on the phone solves 90% of my filming problems in the gym ty!!
Love this I found the alternative garage door opener fascinating (definitely going to buy one now) and the phone magnet the most helpful! DO MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS!!! SUBSCRIBED JUST NOW!
You can also have the garage tracks extend up to the ceiling. Thank you for the content.
I love all of your videos, but these hack videos are always my favorite. Thanks for the tips 🤙🏻
He has more in his garage than my entire local commercial gym
Resistance bands for forearm workouts! Genius Coop, now I can use my band pegs for something other than tripping on!
Coop’s greatest pick up line, “I’ve always been good at finding holes”. Sounds like a great t-shirt idea Coop!
My god... I started my home gym and seriously needed other machines and only thought I had to buy the expensive ones. Wow! I will be using all of these ideas. Time to watch all of your other videos as well! I'm stoked!
Thanks Coop, love your channel! Great tips.
all great hacks, definitely taking several!! Good advice on the wall storage unit, this will be a cool series
First time seeing a video of yours and man I'm ready to make a gym! You rock! Very helpful!
the video we didn’t know we all needed. Thank you kind sir 🙏🏻
The tennis ball landmine was a game-changer when I first heard of it, bet these are all great. Looking forward to more.
11:42 Proof that Squat Plugs are an essential home gym addition.
Awesome! Thanks, especially the leg roller. I've been needing a solution for a long time.
The tennis ball idea is great in place of a land mine attachment!
Great video! Very helpful! Thanks Coop!
This is one of your best videos. Thank you.
Thanks for the content!!! Clutch mode 💪
The editing on this is on point, great video
On the rack attachment, you can also use felt that comes in big pieces that you can cut on whichever sizes you want. This way, it absorbs a little bit of the vibration from when you leave the barbell on the attachment.
The preacher curl & and the land mine ...love it
You’ve got a great editing style!
Loved the tips too
The tennis ball on the loadable DB’s is gonna be clutch. So clever I’m a little disappointed I didn’t think of it myself. 😆 Well played sir.
For the preacher curl, if you have a normal flat bench like a standard Rogue utility one you can angle it so one side is hanging off the safety or a barbell. This allows you to get any angle of incline you want, you will only be able to do dumbbell preacher curl but its still good enough to spice things up if you have limited equipment.
Didn’t exactly get that. Could you elaborate further please?
@@himankkr7060 I think he means to leave one bench foot on the ground and to hook the other foot behind a barbell or a spotter attachment on the rack that is high enough to cause the bench to safely lean backwards. So you don't have to buy an adjustable bench to do single arm dumbell preacher curls.
@@manpreetdhaliwal397 Ahh, okay. Thanks for explaining that. I doubted that it would work because a typical bench here isn't that wide. Will still give it a try though.
Thank you for the tennis ball trick.
I'm temporarily living back with the parent & bought a barbell. It arrived Monday. Wasn't sure how I was going to do landmine press.
This video has come at the perfect time.
Thank you.
The Preacher Curl option was Exactly what I was Looking for. Thank You !
That link is no longer good…where to find them?
This might be the best edited GGR video ever! And the info is helpful too
Second the "get everything off the floor" sentiment. I use the hell out of Gladiator GearTrack type stuff for holding attachments / bands / everything else on the wall.
Damn, so that's where all the plates went to during COVID.
Nice Home gym.
I want more of this! Love your content!
id like to see a video on some of the variants on exercises you've done or been able to do due to all the different equipment you have that feel/are much better than original movements
Outstanding video, hope to see more gym hacks!
First time I've seen his guy ... This guy is a right treat. Good work
The tennis ball barbell hack is great. I’m going to try it
the video edit is amazing in this one. well done.
THE TENNIS BALL FOR LANDMINE WORK OUTS IS BRILLIANT THANKS FOR THE HACKS MAN.
Some great tips as always. Thanks for the info.
That's a ton of equipment for such a little dude, but you do have some good hacks.
The landmine tennis ball hack is the best!! Thanks!
This was awesome!! Please do more of these
Good job Coop! I enjoy your videos.
use an old walker as a dip station is one of my favourite hacks
Looks like I’m putting in a new garage door opener this weekend!!
I love it! Keep them coming!!!
I *just* bought a leg roller, to help me out with some lower body accessories. Didn't think about using it for preacher curls -- but you know what I'm doing today!
Where did you get yours? Thanks.
It's the best video! Congratulations, excellent job 👏👏👏 see you from Mexico City! Kind regards.
Well done Coop!! Appreciate it. I need those legs rollers
Anyone know what rollers those are?
I'm getting a jackshaft garage door opener, and my gym is in the basement. What a space-saving bit of genius.
Phone magnet. So simple but yet never thought of it before. Love it
I watch this when it came out a year ago and he’s a bunch of the tricks from it still!
Love the editing in this video.
Thank you. Great videos lately
Great video,thank you! ’m definitely ordering a peg board. What attachments/accessories have you found the most useful for getting stuff off the floor?
Home gyms the best. I can’t wait to own my own house and build me a gym. Great channel. Great info
Dude idk if this is gonna get seen but serios props to you or whoever does the editing... it’s on point
Thank you! I was looking at landmine attachments until I saw your video. Using the tennis ball hack! You just saved me money!
Great video! Tennis ball dumbbell thing and metal pegboard seem great
Favorite youtube videos every week from coop. GGR is the best .
I lover the preacher curl hack. Gotta try that out.
My favorite hack is using a heatgun to warm up the bar in the winter! Great vid Coop!
The tennis balls on the barbell for a landmine is great. I will definitely use this hack
The hits just keep on coming 💪
Keep em coming coop!
Love this, I'm trying 3 of these hacks out
Great video Coop. Can’t believe I hadn’t thought of the preacher curl! I already love the rollers for a poor mans GHD which you showed in a previous video.
What's a GHD?
I saw him use them on the side of the rack as a back extension. I love simplistic ideas like that
@@killianredrusty2 glute ham developer. Like the rogue abram.
Gotta say some of these are awesome! Thanks Coop 🤟
Great video and awesome info
I'm gonna try that tennis ball hack for. My adjustable dumbells thank you🙏
Do you know what dumbbells he's using? I don't see collars.
That wrist roller is genius
I love my preaching curl bench, I even squat in it
The garage door mechanism was such a great idea.
