Heavy Lifting

As I mentioned in these comments, my sister had a weight bench taking up space in her house. It actually belongs to her son, but with the girlfriend and moving he sort of lost interest - works out great for me. She told me I could have it a while ago but I could never corral anyone to help me. SG had said he would pick it up but he is rarely in this neighborhood so it just never happened. Since she has put her house on the market and it needs to look nice for the prospective buyers she called to remind me....again. I managed to get some help today so it was perfect.

I'm sure I had seen it at her house, but never paid that close of attention. I was thinking it was just "a weight bench" - one of those cheapy things that you can do presses and flies on, and not much else. I was hoping I'd be able to adjust it so I could do incline crunches, though I was doubting it would do that. Boy was I wrong. It is a Weider system, with the leg curl and cable tower and all sorts of stuff. I started to worry it wouldn't fit in the area I had planned for it. Thankfully it does and, once I get it reassembled, I will have even more variety in my workouts. Weights were the main component that I have been missing, so YAY!

Thanks, Sis! and Thanks, Nephew!
