Hi, I'm Ken Banks, 36-year-old natural competitive bodybuilder, with an eye on competing in my first powerlifting competition in 2013. I really enjoy creating homemade workout equipment, as well!

Welcome to the forum Ken. We have a great mix of competitive bodybuilders and powerlifters here.

Make yourself at home. Looking forward to learning more about your training.

Awesome! As soon as I've made 15 posts on the forum, I can start posting links to my homemade equipment videos. I made a really good glute-ham raise, as well as a Prowler, and a hamstring slide. It's rapidly turning into my second hobby (with a strong tie-in to my first, of course).

Welcome James. Best place to start, IMHO, the training logs. Jump in, get your feet wet and lift heavy...

Welcome Ken. As a home trainer, I am always interested in what others have built or found. Bring on the pics and vids.

Will do! The glute-ham raise substitute, in particular, has been getting a lot of rave reviews in the gym.
