Fun? Not so much. All was well until I hit a fairly vague section in the manual and can't get the seat attached right. Sure, I'll get it eventually.. I'm not that dumb.. but still. It's late in the day and I'm sure I'm not going to feel like trying it out until tomorrow morning.
I started out the day all excited having an alternate to the gym (because cold weather is coming and I don't like driving to the gym, prefer to jog) but now it's half put together taking up my entire dining room. I'm hungry, haven't lifted today and frustrated with the instructions. Woo hoo
So I sat down and decided to complain about it before resuming my adventures with the wrench. It'll be worth it though, and I got a pretty good deal walking away with the machine and a new weight set for under $300.
Anyway, pardon the rambling, I'm sure everyone who has put together a home gym has dealt with this non sense
Putting together the heavy bag stand and treadmill were a lot easier. Not looking forward the the elliptical machine I plan to buy next though! Ugh!
Overuse of smilies and commas? Oh, probably
