    Sounds awesome..

    I'm building something similar in the flat..

    In the yard at the back I've got a space to park the car.. like a garage without the walls..
    Putting up a bag and some kicking pads there..
    Weights bench etc is gonna have a seperate room..

    Wanna get loadsa stuff for it!

    I haven't been to the gym in 2 months since I got a rush of college work to do..

    Back with a vengance next week though..

    yeah, i've just been up there testing some of it out... need to buy an air conditioner as well, it has no windows up there and after 45 mins i've concluded it gets hotter than the face of the sun :p

    still, once i've got it tweaked and perfected, it will be the perfect workout space... gettin a tv and hi-fi mounted on the wall, and once the air conditioning issue is done, it's good to go :D

    Play football 2-3 times a week. More fun than going to a gym. :up: Though not at the min, cos i knacked my ankle ligaments a few weeks back. :(

    Sometimes go for a run. Its free! Bit of a bitch though at then min cos of hay fever. Airwaves tighten up, makes breathing tough! :lol:

    Off for a run in 10 mins infact. Just working me way back to fitness after the injury. :cool2:
