You know, the ones where they play soft, easy-going music? Where you can’t use chalk… Can’t deadlift… Can’t overhead press.. The list goes on and on.. I will NEVER go back to an environment like that because personally, I just don’t see how the hell you can get results in an environment like that!

I have had some of the best workouts of my life training in my old high school’s weight room, the training facility where I work at, and even my own garage- In my garage, all we have is a squat rack, dip station, pull up bar, flat bench, a 300 lb barbell set, and a pretty nice set of heavy dumbbells ranging from 80 lbs- 125 lbs. (Also have 1 set of 30′s). By the way, my garage is NOT very big. It’s actually made to fit only 1 car and maybe some storage boxes. But, I’ve still been able to get kick ass training sessions in there!

Me in the dungeon!

Dungeon Garage Workouts

People think Underground training has nothing to do with barbells and dumbbells.

Very Wrong.

Underground training means going against the grain, breaking the rules and straying from the chrome and shiny bunny training methods.

It means heavy dumbbells and barbells.

Water filled kegs and heavy, awkward sandbags.

Thick ropes and stones.

Who knows what else? It’s up to you.

When I first began training in my garage the workouts were amazing.

I had a 300 lb barbell, a utility bench, a pair of 50 and 100 lb dumbbells and a LOUD Stereo! NO Heat – and man that got brutal during the winter! My garage was colder than the outdoors.

I had 2 space heaters, but, the problem was if I turned BOTH of them on the entire electric shorted in the house. My Dad NEVER liked that, so I was stuck with one space heater, which did absolutely nothing for keeping me warm!

Workouts consisted of squats, deadlifts, rows, presses and cleans. Cheat curls with 100 lb dumbbells even!

It wasn’t pretty, but the results were amazing, unlike anything I ever experienced before.

On the weekend I would take a trip to a new gym and get a workout in. I did respect the heat that’s for sure

But the muscle I packed on from my powerbuilding workouts were amazing. The strength was certainly freakish as well.

Stop following the rules and start training like a beast. A barbell, a few dumbbells, a sandbag and a heavy stone and you will build a physique that rivals what is seen in the comic books.

Of course, you need to be ready to put in the work?
