Affiliate & Sponsorship Disclosure

I’ve been writing garage gym content since 2016. My goal was and still is, to put out content that I’d like to watch, read, and participate in. This is where the Garage Gym Competition was born. As with any endeavor, it costs money and takes time. The GGC is no different. Website hosting fees, advertisements, just the phone calls and emails I send for this thing eat up weeks of my life. I love doing it, but I can only do so because of our sponsors and things like affiliate links.

How To Support The GGC

Our sponsors put up prizes for the main event, and some pay a fee for extra promotion. This might be newsletter highlights, social media content production, pictures, videos, or anything else in that realm.

Affiliate links are where you click a link to check out an item, buy it, and I get a percentage of that sale. It costs you nothing, but it adds up BIG TIME to help cover everything I do here.

My words are still my words, not theirs. And the companies who sponsor the GGC, I would gladly use their equipment, supplements, apparel and more. So I’m not here promoting one thing and using another. The affiliate links are for products and services I’d use, or do use.

Using those links, reading those articles, and being an active member of what goes on here, helps promote more companies to join the ranks of sponsors. That means more prizes, discount codes, and opportunities.

What Is Still The Same?

What you’ll get from me is 100% unforgiving transparency, and 100% my views and only my views. I have shared negatives about some of the products I HELPED develop, outright told people NOT to buy items from companies and people I genuinely like, and shared positives about companies and products I wouldn’t overall recommend. I’ll keep doing it. Full stop.

I’m not saying I’m right 100% of the time, I’ve definitely changed my opinion on a number of things over the years. But you know that what I say will be based on my years of experience in the garage, and months of tinkering and testing a product. There are a lot of places you can go to get your garage gym fix. I want to make sure that when you show up here, when you listen and read my content, you leave with MY perceptions of a product. Not anyone else’s. And you leave a better informed garage gym owner so you can make the right decision FOR YOU!

And the same goes for our contributors. Every item they talk about, tip they share, and thing we write under the GGC name, is written by them from their own experiences, and reviewed from my end before going out.

Will You Only Review Affiliate Link and Free Products?

Hell no! I’ll keep digging into the savings account to fund a new specialty bar that I need, hound Marketplace for the next nick nack or upgrade, and keep being a regular home gym owner. And in the instance that I get something sent my way for free or at a discount? You’ll know about it. I’ll make sure it is up front before we even dig into the review itself.

I have no problem making money doing cool stuff in my garage. But I continue to want to steer this ship in a way that lets me sleep comfortably at night. That lets my mom, my wife, and my daughter know I am doing the right thing, even if it is the hard thing. So I’ll keep doing my thing, my way, and have a lot of fun doing it.

Ok… enough time on my soap box. Hopefully if you are here, you know that my word is my bond. Everything on this site was hand written by me, and that will never change. If you want to continue to support what I do, check out the reviews and hit those links. Each one adds up and even if there isn’t an affiliate link tied to it, it helps with visibility. So thanks for being here!
