Building a fitness lab

Author Message Chad Nemecek (Canemecek) Junior Member Username: Canemecek Post Number: 5 Registered: 12-2005 Posted on Saturday, March 24, 2007 - 11:07 am:        I was recently approached by my Principal and he said that he had enough $ to begin our fitness lab. We have about $12,000 to begin with. What I would like is either people letting me know the things they have in their labs that are currently working great or things they wish they would have done differently. The room is about 80x 30 feet J.

If so, I would definately have agility ladders and plyometric boxes. Setting it up and how you organize your space is where you want to put most of your thought into. Equipment I would definately have with your budget- power racks, bumper plates, olympic barbells, competition benches, pullup/chinup bars, high and low cable row machine, trap bar (for deadlifts), and dumbbells. Odd object lifting is great also-sandbags are cheap to make, empty kegs 1/4 and 1/2 filled with water. Hope this helps
