Yesterday I had the great fortune of shopping at Farm and Fleet. I got my second stall matt, some easy 12 and 10 inch spikes, a couple horse shoes, and a thing to properly reel up the hose. Then I spent part of the day re-organizing the garage. I moved a lot of things to the basement, including a shelf of stuff, the powerblocks, and my wife's hyperextension.
The garage gym is much nicer now. Far more space and two stations for heavy weights. This means my v-bar can stay setup on a matt. I made it to the mirror store on Saturday. Installing a 4'x6' mirror is going to be $300. Given that I can already video tape myself, I am not going to do it. No mirror for me.
All this coupled with the FBBC order earlier in the week means it is time to update my wishlist. I will be out of things to buy for the gym very soon. There go all my excuses!

I've got a mirror roughly that size in the gym (it just happened to be in there, wasn't planned) and it comes in handy for one thing - judging squat depth. Yes, you can always watch the video replay; but it's good to know at the time. Particularly if you're in the middle of a set.

A big mirror would be a nice to have, but I just can't see dropping $300 on something that is likely to get broken. I've got two smaller mirrors laying around the house unused that I may setup instead when I have more free time.

The best thing about mirrors is the posing. But I can't deal with the sight of a sweating, middle-aged bald dude at 4AM, so no mirrors for me.
