What do your got? What do you wish you had? and what do you wish you hadn't believed the infomercial on? :D
 
I got: a bowflex, one of those crappy bikes where you propel a fan as you go, some ab chair that doesnt work, and one of those oldschool treadmills with the rollers on the bottom.

What I wish I had was a room big enough to hold a bench + assorted freeweights, a treadmill, and a heavy bag. Space is the only thing holding me back atm :(

Bowflex is the only thing currently still used :/ I go to the gym mostly though.
 
An Olympic barbell set adding up to 490lbs.
A standard weight set adding to ~185lbs. with a adustable bench accomp.
A ten inch diameter log.
3 inch thick bar.
Dual stack draggin sled.
Dual grip Farmers Walk handles.
A few stones ranging from 100lbs. to roughly 200-250.
Ironmind grippers trainer though 3. The super master gripper.
A short lever bar.
2 inch wrist roller.
Dexterity balls.
A Rolling Thunder handle.
Block weights (broken dumbbells).
Sledge Hammers.
~550lbs. tire.
Outer Limit Loops.
A whole stack of decks of cards.
Bike.

Man, I have a lot of equipment...that's all I could come up with off the top of my head...I am sure I will think of/see more lying around.

P.S. can see some of it here: www.geocities.com/nobeltnowrapsnospotters

Treadmill
Free weights
Bosu
Swedish Ball
mats
skipping rope
heavy bags


...not really looking for much else at the moment although an elliptical would be nice for those "bad knee" days.
 
Wavemaster
100lb heavybag (Currently stuck with a crappy freestanding bag holder that barely keeps the thing upright. Too short and flimsy. What I get for buying on clearance. Want to get a wall mount.)
40lb Everlast heavybag
Cobra Reflex bag
Two 1pood kettlebells
Ab wheel

Don't use my weighted vest much. (Looks too much like I'm wearing a homemade bomb.) Ankle weights are dusty too.
 
Treadmill
Elliptical cycle
A Bench with a lat pull and a leg curl and 400 lbs in free weights
Swedish Ball
Heavy Bag
Jump Rope
Lots of wrestling mat :)
 
Yep the Bowflex Ultima and a good hanging heavy bag,..
 
All of this fits in what I consider "my" space in the basement. Apx size of my workout cave is 12x24.

Bowflex XTL (easily folds to practice forms/sets)
Treadmill
Roman chair
Free weights for dumbell/curl bar
Eliptical cycle
Bully Bob
50lb heavy bag
Workout tower

Oh we also have one of those exercise balls that gets mostly used by my kids as something to bounce on.
 
bench/lat pull machine
around 300 lbs in plate weight
dumbell rack w/ dumbells up to 35lbs
forget what they are called, but long metal bendable rod

wish we had more room... would love an eliptical
 
Banana bag
speed bag
bench and about 300lbs of free weights I never use
roman chair

Mostly I do pushups and situps of various types. Do use the roman chair a lot though.
Anyone want the weights?

Two wavemasters a mountain bike and a trampoline.

I bet I have more fun than you silly guys with your boring iron.

Bowflex Extreme (limited space, so it fits nicely).

How limited is your space? low ceiling or small room? I'm looking to get a Bowflex <something> but I have 6' ceilings in my basement and my wife wouldn't be up for a bowflex in the living room - something about guests having to sit near it.
