I got this as an upgrade to my original stand which was the fold out. I love the design of it and using it really makes things easier and just feels more sturdy. Building the thing is a pain but I love the look of it and it’s lite, mobile, and sturdy.

Got this off Amazon and for a budget multi grip it’s not bad. You have to remember what you’re paying for here it’s not gonna be an eliteFTS or Kabuki bar. If you’re like me and only mix this in on occasion or when your shoulders act up then it’s a good option. The knurling leaves a lot to be desired and the storage is a pain but honestly for the 150 I paid for it and its ability to accept chalk I can overlook this.

These were the first sand bags I bought and man what an awesome investment! They are super versatile and well made. Not much to say other than if you like sand bags add these to your tool kit!

I bought this after watching Juji tour strongman archeology’s gym and I started to have the hyper fixation on old school strongman feats. It’s definitely not something I would buy if you are only interested in conventional training and have no storage. It’s a short bar with a thick handle and you can load it with sand or lead shot like a traditional globe bar. I bought this to learn how to bent press and cotta say it’s humbling. The finish is great, the welds are solid, and the plugs are easy to take off and put in. Honestly if you are interested in old time strongman stuff and wanna have a fun implement that doesn’t cost much I would recommend this! It’s designed to be sturdy and used outside so I will be taking it out this summer. The top loaded weight is 109 but if you have never used a loadable bar or dumbbell like this before that gets heavy fast as the weight shifts. If you have space for it and just want a fun new toy that makes you feel like you’re a mustachioed muscle man on vaudeville doing your best Eugene Sandow impression then give this a try!

I love this rack. I wasn’t sure about it being big enough for me but I can comfortably squat, bench, pull up, row, really just about anything inside it with no problem. I have the basic set up right now with the j cups and pipe and pin that come stock but plan to upgrade to the ghost rollers and safety straps soon. If I were going to change out this rack it would be for a six post with flat feet but this is honestly a great price and the 5/8” with 3x3 is so universal that I’m not sure I really would ever need to buy a different rack. I also love that you can add more posts, junctions, and attachments to create your own ecosystem. The rack isn’t too busy, wasn’t too hard to assemble. The price is a little high compared to some other companies but I feel incredibly safe and comfortable lifting in this rack

I will start off by saying that they beat the hell out of a spring collar and many cheaper options. That being said I use these as my daily driver and trust them for the most part. I can attest that they have yet to completely fail to lock down but there have been plenty of times that I have had to re twist the locks down after a set. They look great! I have the OD Green version and think they look phenomenal but I definitely would ensure they are locked fully.

I love these things! Super affordable, strong, and useful. My only complaint it that my pull up bar wore off some of the foam padding on the loop. Definitely will be adding the cable attachable versions to the gym
