underhand grip doing rows puts the wrists in a bent back position.

and using a straight bar means they are bent back and twisted out. Then from there they get pulled upwards by the arms, and downwards by gravity.

Use double overhand grip.

either thumb under or over to see what works best.

cheers, makes sense as to what the issue could be.

Bought commercial cable cross over for $100, a second corner cross over unit for a friend of mine for $180, laying down back row for $90, commercial peck deck for $20 (that's right, $20) and a commercial ab crunch machine for a friend for $20. If I had more space, or had known that it was going to be that cheap, would have organised some storage space and bought a lot more. couldn't believe the prices. will post pics tomorrow once I have it either in the work bay or hopefully at home. the $100 is missing the cables that go with it, so will have to source them somewhere, but that's easy enough.

Having seen your dumbell racks I'm guessing you'll be charging membership fees for your garage soon...

I wish I had seen this auction before I bought all my gear. Would have saved thousands

Full commercial power rack went for $180. It was ridiculous.

Worst marketed auction ever. I only saw it on gumtree and decided to pop in see what was there. There were about 30 people there, and they were all looking to privately buy equipment for their homes.

A lot of the gear was very badly presented as well, covered in dust and some of it in mould, with scratches here and there, but it was still fully functional.

I will post pics by end of the week once I get it all home and cleaned up and assembled.

I think I get away with no wrist issues due to using bitch gloves that wrap around and support the wrist a little.

Just buy a proper pair of wrist wraps from the likes of Inzer or Titan and wrap them properly before a set.

If there is still pain you might need some fascia release or treatment on the muscles or tendons.

finally, a pic appears.

going to have to move the tv cabinet thingy and fan out and put the pec dec there and will wall mount the tv above the dumbbell rack.

have sold the calgym chest press, and am now already a few hundred ahead of what I paid for all the gear. wish I had bought more....

    • $350 for a skid pan day at EC? WTF?? They used to be like <$100? We had track days at EC south and the full circuit for $350-odd WOOOWWWW COVID ruined us all.
    • C'mon Matt, our cars are classics now... *looks at 1kg BigW bottle mounted in front of seat* ah that's been expired for a while now... 😢
    • As above, can't rely on rubber belts too much when you're hitting OVER NINE THOUSAND !!!11!! revs, so electric conversion (Astra as mentioned above) is the way to go.
    • I highly recommend spending a lot of time searching the posts here. There is literally decades worth of information here, and whatever you can think of has been done (besides maybe quad-rotor AWD into a Skyilne chassis). Like, there was someone with an AWD Silvia and a crazy built SR20, and I've personally seen an R31 Skyline (Australian spec) with R32 GT-R running gear (including AWD).
    • Dragging some reo behind a ute or trailer will smooth out a dirt road, I've used reo a few times to do unsealed road maintenance when we didn't have any plant available  It's best done when the dirt is wet though, and then you just let it dry out for a day to harden up For wetting the dirt I've used some 44 gal drums in a ute or trailer, and a water pump connected to a hose with a old sprinkler tied to the reo to wet the material down whilst spreading Basically just drive slowly up and down the road a few times dragging a few sheets of reo wired together with the sprinkler wetting it all down as you go
