My rack is built from 3” x 3” x 11ga. Box tube for the uprights and feet. Horizontal dumbbell supports are 3” x 3” x 3/16” angle iron. Plate storage consists of 1-1/2” x 7ga DOM pipe. Top shelf is made up of 1” x 1” x 1/4” box tube with a 3/16” plate for the shelf. Overbuilt but as any Dad would say while giving it a good slap “that’s not going anywhere” All fabrication done by me at The Roost Mfg.

Where to begin. This is where our obsession with leaderboards began? This brought back a spark in my life I didn’t know was missing. Each day I thought can I add more weight to this and try to beat my friends? Should I take time out of my regular training to do stall mat grip work? This made life fun again. Haven’t quite decided if it’s a true pinch grip or something else. Highly recommend giving it a go if you haven’t.

Works for its intended purpose. But it works even better for easing the pain of hip thrusts under the barbell.

Prefer these very much over Cerberus due to the much softer feel. And the shape they take of the sand. Feels like they are much easier to break in. Use the 150 and 100.

“The Cadillac of ez curl bars.” That’s why we keep it in the front corner instead of the back corner. No need to spend this amount to have big arms but it’s shiny and pretty.

I made my 12” log with 12” x 10ga. Tube and 3/16” plate steel. Handles are 1-5/8” diameter pipe and loading sleeves are 2” diameter pipe. Log is 57-1/2” long with 11” of loadable sleeve length on each end making it 79-1/2” long overall. Empty log weight is right at 120lbs. If someone is interested in making one similar I could provide further specs if necessary but I think what’s fun about fabricating your own strongman equipment is you can make it however you want! ETA: I think the paint type should have been smooth on the outer part. It’s too rough and catches easily. Maybe that’s personal preference and could become an advantage if you plan for it in your clean. Definitely a tough scrape to the chin with the texture paint. We maybe could add a clear finish to change if wanted. Jennilee

No brainer to own this once I had started training strongman. I think the orange really pops next to our orange racks! JenP

I can’t believe how many years we went without having one of these. I think we could have saved our barbells from a lot of wear if we had one sooner! I will get anything in this green whenever I can. JenP
