It’s a handy little unit to have around. Not only will it hold a crispy boy or a piping hot Lacroix it also holds a phone, bottle of ammonia or barbell rescue brush. Since it harnesses the power of magnets to stick to anything ferric, the uses are litterally endless.

For a little more than a normal cross member the pull-up bar is an excellent use of space. It only fits in the widest rack BOS sells, but it offers four grips attached to an axle width bar on one side and a small bar on the other. The welds aren’t great but I haven’t broken it yet.

The lighter weights aren’t great by themselves, they warp under the weight of the bar. They are ok for axle technique work. The wider ones are completely fine. They do wear quite well when dropped.

You never know what you can find used on the internet, be it FBMP or some other site. You can usually get good deals from gyms closing down or people that hurt themselves and are getting out of the sport. This custom 12” Valkyrie log weights 110lbs and was only a five hour drive away.

They fit on both standard and specialty bars. The only downside is they don’t hold very well if they are dropped like from an axle press or oly lift. They’re pretty pricey, but the time you save not having to take them off to load plates makes up for it. If you have a non climate controlled gym, bring them inside during the winter. The rubber will shrink and crack then they are nowhere near as useful as they once were.

Great for grip training or if you just want to work on squeezing the dumbbells during your accessories. They sometimes get slippery if you’re too sweaty.

It’s a good way to adjust the length of your cables without actually having to go the store. Much better idea than using a chain like I did before I learned about these.

Really brings the whole room together. This piece will let everyone know about liftin and drinkin
