James Newbury, Home Gym Fitout
The inside of James Newbury’s garage home gym resembles a miniature version of the CrossFitter’s Soul365 Gym. James’ vision for his ultimate home gym was to have the convenience and space to train at home surrounded by an arsenal of top-quality AlphaFit gear.
As a CrossFitter, Ironman and Bobsledder, Newbury’s equipment selection ticks all the boxes when it concerns his training needs. At the heart of James’ garage home gym is a 2 Cell Wall Mounted Rig, custom powder coated with black uprights and white pullup bars for a striking visual aesthetic. For strength training and conditioning, he selected Flat Utility Benches, GHD, Pull Bench, Top Load Farmers Walk Handles, Rubber Hex Dumbbells, Dip Bar, Parallettes and Dead Balls. His Olympic Weightlifting equipment picks included the Swivel Grip Barbell, Endure Barbell, Competition Bumper Plates, Lock Jaw Collars and Chalk Bowl.
James loves training outside, which gives him plenty of vitamin D and affords him the space to train with his partner Kayla, mates, travelling CrossFitters and his two dogs. Standing outside his garage is the pièce de résistance, a custom 1 Cell Fully Braced High Rig with 4750mm tall uprights for training competition height rope climbs. The rig is also custom powder coated with the addition of zinc plating to provide formidable protection against weather damage such as corrosion and rust. He also selected extra rig components such as the Dual Wall Ball Targets and a Trawler Arm. The addition of the Parallel Bars rounds out the setup of his outdoor home gym.
TESTIMONIAL
"I had been looking forward to setting up my ultimate home gym for a long, long time. AlphaFit made the process so much fun by helping with equipment choice, design, layout and colour selection. Having a team dedicated to helping you make the most out of your budget and space goes a long way when it comes to being efficient in the gym. My space now feels open and ready for action everyday. I know I can always bank on the gear to stand up to the punishment and test of time knowing AlphaFit produced it. When I do my next home gym it’ll be bigger, better and most definitely AlphaFit."
