Nice landmine. It’s got some built in barbell protection which is cool. Decent looking powder coat. Nice upgrade from my Amazon, bumper plate post style I was using before.

Very nice for the price. They do feel like they lock on firm. I’ve hurt my knuckles pretty good before snapping them open, it stings. They are too strong for my wife to want to use. The open design is cool

Got what I believe is the Kabuki version, no knurled handles, on FB marketplace. I really like it for incline narrow grip bench, the hand position I feel helps hit the upper chest even more. The camber is nice too. It is a big long bar. And it swings upside down on its own when not in use due to the center of balance. But it’s very cool

The certification process was vigorous, it was worth it. And the banner is sick, nice fabric. Perfect size. Really ties the room together. The certificate that comes with it is the only certificate I have ever framed and displayed... and I went to college. For welding, but still

I got this as part of the voltra Black Friday attachment package. I wanted to be ready to use it as soon as I received my voltra and I had no cable attachments. Plus it got me a deal on the adaptive bar mount which is clutch. It is premium feeling and actually nice while being light weight. For me, it gets the job done, but I’d rather feel like a rogue stainless knurled straight bar. But that is also probably a bit overpriced

Very stout grip trainer. Come in resistance strong enough for someone serious about getting strong. I started off with the “trainer” I think, then graduated to the 1. Now I’m on the 1.5 which is difficult. I might be ready for the 2, but haven’t been doing them lately. I only met one other person who could close my #1.5 CoC gripper and he was just a pretty big guy, big hands. I think the 1.5 is like 164 lbs or something. Very nice. Pavel Tsatsuline sold me on them. I used the grease the groove method to progress. Worked great as a pizza delivery man

Good D handles. Feel sturdy. I prefer metal knurled handles, so I got the rogue d handles and those are very nice, better value and performance. But these do feel sturdy. Got them as part of their Black Friday attachment package, had to choose them as an option to get the deal on the adaptive bar mount and the straight bar.

Does what it’s supposed to do. Thick padding, durable feeling fabric. On the pricier end for its function, but it does work well. I feel like it provides more surface area than using the squat bar cylindrical style pad. Plus I don’t like that cylindrical squat bar pad, I associate it with weakness. I don’t wanna touch it. This can also maybe function as a cushion in a few applications
