I have got to the point in my life where I have nothing better to do than thinking about creating a home gym out of my garage. My wife tells me that it is time to get out the pipe and slippers, but I have other plans!
When converted, I intend fitting this out with the most basic of equipment, an adjustable bench, all-in-one dumb bell set, a kettle bell or three, rubber bands, etc. Really simple.
One item I am considering purchasing and that I have seen a video of someone using ( Clarence Bass, in fact ) is a Trap Bar. I had thought of using this to contribute towards my leg and lower back training. The problem is that I have never seen one for real or used one myself. I would appreciate it, if any of you can give me your experience of using one of these. I don't want to waste part a lifetime's hard earned money, if at all possible 
. It might well be that you consider money would be better spent on an Olympic bar, although of course, these are no cheap item.
