Food grade Ropak bucket free from a local Mr Sub. Big bulk bag rice added. Done. Simple and effective option for hand or forearm strength and conditioning. And lots on YouTube of what ways one can use it for forearm training.

Same “diy utility Bench” use for box squats. Here use two modified 2x4’s for the cross pieces. Sit on the pins. Cut some pieces of 2x4 to make pieces to help hold them in place. The utility bench added couple of extra 2x4’s cross wise to keep it from moving forwards or back. Simple, stupidly cheap, and cheap. Does the job.

Dirtbag level “utility seat” say that in quotes as made to to do more then one. Made from scrap wood. Cut to width of rack and Amazon Safeties. Primary use is as a “Squat Box” to make better use of space and one less object to worry about tripping over. Or seeing how strong toes are when absent mindedly tag with foot. Does the job. Also handy when doing deadlifts and want to take a breather- and also have a sip of beverage.

Very versatile. And one added feature not mentioned. Silence. If your in the basement or shared space no loud clanging of chains if working out at night. Well unless everyone you live with enjoys hearing the weight room attempt at the Isengard Theme. 😝

Disclaimer- didn’t weight them so no clue if mine are accurate. Maybe if was competing would worry about it To be honest bought mine more as a way to trick my overthinking ADHD PTSD brain to think less doubt wise. A work around of stupid overthinking stuff and slowly add more weight as it gets heavier. If your worried about accuracy of weight these are not for you.

Definitely budget however it works. Bought it as sort of a reward to self for making it through a tough period. And is at least to me an option if you can’t get Titan ones. Roller is not grooved and is some kind of plastic not UMWH. Does the job of allowing one to move the bar easier to centre it. It should be easy to find a replacement when the roller dies finally. Fits 2x2” uprights. Fits 5/8” hole without included adapter and 1” hood with adapter. Good option if you live somewhere where can’t get say Titan’s offerings. Or if you are thinking of roller J-Hooks yet don’t know if it will work for you. Good way to see if works cheaper then paying way more and not liking it.

Got the yellow version. Use it with the Bells of Steel Far Bar Single D handle for one hand lift and holds as well as the heavier one hand lifts for reps. Only recommendation is replace the provided mini carabiner with one with more weight capacity- easy to find at Home Depot or other hardware store.

Upgrade from the DIY version had been using . Gift to myself type thing. Use it so far mostly for one arm loading pin lifts or lit and holds. Knurling at least for me works especially when consider the DIY version was PVC pipe. Buy it again? Definitely.
