Hey, Thank you so much for checking out my video. I hope you enjoyed it and I hope that your DIY projects are going great. Let me know down below if you have any ideas or if you would like me to design and build something specific for a home/garage gym setup.
I just bought a rack mounted leg roller and got a huge 2+ inch barbell pad on bench and use those and bands to aid in coming back up as I'm new to this exercise. Total cost about $100 between pad and Rep's rack mounted roller most use to hold themselves for lat pulldowns. Still not sure why everybody loves this so much stiff and romanian deadlifts are just as good.
You are not wrong, it is just as good, for posterior chain. Not so much for sit ups. Also, it just adds one more variety and in a society where attention is limited this helps keeping clients interested for longer.
I'm shocked at how hard this exercise is and how weak my hamstrings are. Second time doing it yesterday feel a bit stronger hopefully can work my way down lighter and lighter assistance bands.@@Leon-Fitness
Awesome project. The day I get out of my appartment and into a house, I will use this as inspiration and a similar one, with just a few modifications in order to do nordic curls too.
I know most crossfit boxes use them for situps, but have you used it for glute ham raises? Thinking of making something similar, just curious if my knees will hit the support bars at the apex of a glute ham raise. (When the knees dip down a little.)
Haha yeah I deffo still have a bit of an accent don't. Let me know how you get on with it when you build it, I have made some changes since moving to a new house and improved the design a bit and I am sure you will be doing the same;)
Awesome dude, That is exactly what i need for my home gym!!! Could you let me know the dimensions of every single piece for build that homemade GHD, please?

Love the concept. How’s it holding up so far? Anything you would do differently?
Great build

I have used it for that yes,. all I do is just keep my legs straight.
Patent this. Sell me one please. Exactly what I am looking for.

1.5 years later how is it holding up. Great project going to steal the ideas! @bg fitness
I have actually since redesigned it which works a lot better. The original held fine until we moved

? can u tell me what type of square pipe u used and the name of the t's and the measurements of any other material u used this is a great DYI
So the square pipe I used was 50mmx50mm the round pipe is 32mm and therefore all the t brackets etc was 32mm also. Bolts were 8mm
@@Leon-Fitness can u tell me the name of the brakes so I can look for them on Amazon
can u tell me if the t brackets r steel of aluminum? Kichler 15607 Surface Or Tree Mounting Bracket For 12V Landscape Fixtures
How did you make the cushioning pad?
I actually cut up an old mattress and doubled it over. Since then Ive found a company that cuts foam for you to size though
