I studied my ass off for this exam for about a year. It may have taken me 11 attempts, but I passed and no one can take that for me. As long as I keep making my payments.

I got these for the novelty of the mechanism. They lock up strongly, but the inlaid magnets are pathetic, so they may barely stick to your rack.

This is one of the easiest and cheapest ways to make your gym yours, if you don't mind a (maybe) less polished place to lift. Also you and/or your children get a chance to express yourself artistically. 100% recommended

Completely normal deadlift jack, but with rollers. It's a small thing, but I do use them to re-center the bar on the platform.

These things are loose, undersized 45s, and mine arent super accurate. On the plus side, you can get them for really little money. I might not buy these again if I was starting over but they're not awful.

This is my first and only rack, so bear with me. This is comparable in features to Rogue's folding rack, but also comparable in price. It's really high quality, roomy (I got the deepest one), and has lots of room for attachments. The laser-cut numbers are really nice to have, as well. I do actually fold it away every evening. I know I'm probably the exception, but you can at least count on it not being a pain in the ass to fold down 😂 As a folding full rack in a garage with sloped floors, I've had to shim the upper hinges to keep the feet on the floor and allow easy folding. Not the rack's fault, but keep that in mind if you're looking to build out a garage as well.

This bench doesn't do anything fancy, but it is solid, and the vinyl is pretty grippy. It's really lightweight, and doesn't have much keeping it in place when you're setting up or engaging leg drive. The best thing about it is that it is sturdy and costs $150.

It's not rackable and it weighs a weird amount (like 17 lbs). The sleeves are kinda short. But the thing is $50 and it's solid. You know what? It's fine.
