JACKSON COUNTY, Ohio — Working out at the gym has been impossible because of the coronavirus pandemic, but an Ohio man found a way to solve that weighty problem. He built a gym in his yard.
Zachary Skidmore, who lives east of Cincinnati, took matters into his own hands and built what he calls a "lumber jacked gym," WCMH reported.
Skidmore posted a video to his Facebook page, showing off his homemade his gym -- complete with a treadmill, leg press, shoulder press and dumbbells, the television station reported. Skidmore created his gym out of wood.
So my gym closed. So I grabbed a chainsaw and went to work. I built what I'm calling "Lumber Jacked Gym" in around 60 hours over the span of 2 weeks. I managed to satisfy my hunger to work out. I hope you enjoy! #blessed #workout #woodshop #fitness To use this video in a commercial player or in broadcasts, please email licensing@storyful.com

It looks like he is going to keep in shape with no problem.
