I recently bought a weight bench and set and made a workout room. I set up a TV, a radio, the bench, etc. Basically I took a spare room and just made it a lifting (mostly) room. I do have a yoga mat for some stretching but mostly this room is about lifting weights. But this thread is not about lifting weights.
I’m looking for decorations, posters, and other things to make this place feel like a cool exercise room. Maybe some motivation. If you were to build a room for this purpose, how would you decorate it? Right now I’m inspired by . . . of all things Assassin’s Creed 2, and thinking about getting some classical painting prints/posters for the walls with say, Samson destroying the pillars, or Hercules fighting a lion, or things like that. But who knows, maybe I’ll Brucie it up and get bikini models and fast cars.
If you were decorating the walls of a weight room, which poster and prints would you pick? Links appreciated. Or print/titles I can Google. For instance, here is one I was looking at.
Putting a couple Brucie quotes up would be a kick-ass first step.
In order to really answer your question, though, I think we have to know what motivates you. Chicks? Plenty of posters for that. Hugeness? Maybe some World’s Strongest Man pictures or something. Seriously, get some pictures of things you think are badass…and get that TV out of there.
Why get the TV out of there? I grow bored exercising indoors, statically, I think I need something to distract me. Why are TVs bad?
Motivation? Increased muscle mass and definition. So yeah, chicks, and hugeness, and energy level, and accomplishment, and more free time, and all those things. Mostly I just want to experiment for a while and see where it goes.
Yes. The only reason I didn’t suggest them as “decoration” was because I count them as part of your equipment. It’s not like you’ll be staring at yourself lustily. You want to make sure you’re not injuring yourself or favoring one side.
